Ticket-Linked Vehicle Control for In-Transit Event Viewing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users attending entertainment events often arrive late due to transportation challenges, disrupting their viewing experience, and existing solutions do not provide seamless access to event content during transit.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus and method that controls autonomous vehicles to transport users to entertainment sites, reads entertainment tickets to identify destinations, and provides real-time picture data from the event site, allowing users to watch the event en route or after leaving, using a system comprising autonomous traveling vehicles, server apparatuses, and entertainment site servers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If users take traditional transportation to entertainment sites, then transportation time and scheduling flexibility are limited, but users can arrive late and miss event start times
Solution Approach 1:
The system transmits and displays picture data of the entertainment performance to the movable body, creating a visual copy of the event that users can view during transit. This allows users to watch the performance content on mobile devices or displays in the autonomous vehicle, effectively bringing the entertainment experience to the transportation phase and eliminating the loss of event content due to late arrival.
2Adaptability or versatility
If users arrive at entertainment sites by performance start time, then they can watch the full event, but transportation scheduling becomes rigid and inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary transmission of picture data to the movable body before the user arrives at the entertainment site. The autonomous vehicle receives and buffers the entertainment content during the journey, so that even if the user arrives after the performance has started, they can immediately view the content that was prepared in advance during the transit period, maintaining full access to event content while allowing flexible scheduling.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the system provides real-time picture data transmission to movable bodies, then users can watch events during transit, but system complexity and data transmission requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an information processing apparatus as an intermediary between the entertainment site and the movable body. This intermediary receives picture data from the entertainment site, processes and manages the data transmission, and delivers it to the autonomous vehicle's display system. This mediator layer simplifies the overall system architecture by centralizing data management functions and providing a standardized interface between the entertainment source and mobile display platforms.

AI summary
There is provided an information processing apparatus that controls a movable body that transports a user holding an entertainment ticket to and/or from an entertainment site where an entertainment is performed, the information processing apparatus including a control unit that executes: electronically reading the entertainment ticket held by the user; identifying the entertainment site associated with the entertainment ticket; generating an instruction for causing the movable body to move for transporting the user to the identified entertainment site; receiving picture data transmitted from the identified entertainment site; and providing a picture obtained by decoding the picture data to the user on board the movable body.
