Then, when the vehicle terminal 3 detects that the user U has boarded the vehicle T, the vehicle terminal 3 presents the route R3 shown in FIG. 2C, which is the route from the planned boarding point to the destination, to the driver as the second route ( (5) of FIG. By doing so, the route presentation system S can switch from the presentation of the route to the waypoint to the presentation of the route to the destination at an appropriate timing for the driver. In the maps shown in FIGS. 2A to 2C, the same area is displayed, but the display area when the first route is displayed and the display when the second route is displayed are displayed. The area may be different.
Hereinafter, the configuration of the vehicle terminal 3 will be described.

[Configuration of vehicle terminal 3]
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the configuration of the vehicle terminal 3. The vehicle terminal 3 has a communication unit 31, a position information acquisition unit 32, a display unit 33, an operation unit 34, a storage unit 35, and a control unit 36.

The communication unit 31 is an interface for connecting to the network N, and is configured to include, for example, a wireless LAN (Local Area Network) controller. The position information acquisition unit 32 is a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver, and acquires the position of the vehicle terminal 3, that is, the position information indicating the position of the vehicle T from the GPS satellite. The position information acquisition unit 32 acquires position information from GPS satellites at predetermined intervals (for example, every minute).

The display unit 33 is a display. The operation unit 34 is, for example, a touch panel superimposed on the display. The storage unit 35 is a storage medium such as a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), and a hard disk. The storage unit 35 stores a program executed by the control unit 36. The storage unit 35 stores map data used for presenting a map around the vehicle T and presenting a route to the driver.

The control unit 36 is, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit). By executing the program stored in the storage unit 35, the control unit 36 functions as a reception unit 361, an information presentation unit 362, a boarding detection unit 365, a status information acquisition unit 366, an operation reception unit 367, and a notification unit 368. ..

The receiving unit 361 receives the vehicle allocation request information including the planned boarding point information and the destination information from the vehicle allocation management device 2 via the communication unit 31. The operation reception unit 367 receives an input operation by the driver via the operation unit 34. The notification unit 368 notifies the information terminal 1 or the vehicle allocation management device 2 of the input information based on the input operation by the driver received by the operation reception unit 367 via the communication unit 31.

The information presentation unit 362 presents the presentation information to the driver by displaying various presentation information such as a map around the current position of the vehicle T on the display unit 33 or outputting the presentation information to a voice unit (not shown). do. For example, when the receiving unit 361 receives the vehicle allocation request information, the information presenting unit 362 causes the display unit 33 to display a display screen for setting whether or not to accept the vehicle allocation request.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a display screen displayed on the display unit 33. On the display screen shown in FIG. 4A, a message indicating that there is a vehicle allocation request, an consent button B1 for accepting the vehicle allocation request, and a cancel button B2 for rejecting the vehicle allocation request are displayed.

In the example shown in FIG. 4A, when the driver presses the consent button B1, the operation receiving unit 367 accepts the operation of pressing the consent button B1 by the driver via the operation unit 34. After that, the notification unit 368 notifies the vehicle allocation management device 2 of the information indicating that the driver has accepted the vehicle allocation request as input information, so that the vehicle T is assigned to the vehicle allocation request.

On the other hand, in the example shown in FIG. 4A, when the driver presses the cancel button B2, the operation receiving unit 367 accepts the operation of pressing the cancel button B2 by the driver via the operation unit 34. After that, the notification unit 368 notifies the vehicle allocation management device 2 of the information indicating that the driver has not accepted the vehicle allocation request as input information, so that another vehicle T is assigned to the vehicle allocation request.

Returning to FIG. 3, the information presentation unit 362 presents the route from the departure point to the arrival point to the driver as presentation information. Specifically, the information presentation unit 362 searches for a route from the departure point to the arrival point, displays the searched route on the display unit 33 for guidance, or outputs the searched route to the voice unit for guidance. By doing so, the route is presented to the driver.

The information presentation unit 362 includes a first route presentation unit 363 and a second route presentation unit 364. The first route presentation unit 363 presents to the driver of the vehicle T the first route, which is the route from the current position of the vehicle T to the planned boarding point on which the user U is to be boarded. The current position of the vehicle T on the first route is, for example, the position information acquisition unit when the driver performs an operation for approving the vehicle allocation request (an operation in which the driver presses the consent button B1 shown in FIG. 4A). It is the position of the vehicle T indicated by the position information acquired by 32. Further, the current position of the vehicle T on the first route may be, for example, the position of the vehicle T indicated by the position information acquired by the position information acquisition unit 32 when the reception unit 361 receives the vehicle allocation request information.

The first route presenting unit 363 indicates, for example, the position information acquired by the position information acquisition unit 32 when the operation reception unit 367 receives an operation of pressing the understanding button B1 shown in FIG. 4A by the driver. The first route from the current position of the vehicle T to the planned boarding point is searched, and the searched first route is presented to the driver. The first route presenting unit 363 searches for the first route when the receiving unit 361 receives the vehicle allocation request information, and displays the display screen shown in FIG. 4A including the searched first route. , The first route may be presented to the driver.

Even if the first route presenting unit 363 presents the driver with a user interface for notifying the user U from the driver when the vehicle T arrives at the scheduled boarding point which is the arrival point on the first route presented to the driver. good. Specifically, the first route presentation unit 363 is used by the driver to the user U when the position of the vehicle T is included in a predetermined range including the planned boarding point (for example, a range from the planned boarding point to 10 meters). The driver may be presented with a user interface to notify.

On the display screen shown in FIG. 4B, as a user interface for notifying the user U from the driver, a call button B3 for calling the user U and a message button for notifying the user U of an arbitrary message are displayed. B4 and the arrival / departure button B5 for notifying the user U that the vehicle T has arrived at the scheduled boarding point are displayed. For example, when the driver presses the arrival button B5 shown in FIG. 4B, the vehicle terminal 3 notifies the information terminal 1 that the vehicle T has arrived at the scheduled boarding point via the vehicle allocation management device 2.

Specifically, first, when the driver presses the arrival button B5 shown in FIG. 4B, the operation reception unit 367 receives an operation in which the driver presses the arrival button B5 via the operation unit 34. Then, the notification unit 368 notifies the vehicle allocation management device 2 of the arrival / departure information indicating that the vehicle T has arrived at the scheduled boarding point via the communication unit 31. After that, the vehicle allocation management device 2 notifies the information terminal 1 of the arrival information indicating that the vehicle T indicated by the arrival / departure information has arrived at the scheduled boarding point. The arrival information is not limited to the information indicating that the vehicle T has arrived at the scheduled boarding point, but the vehicle T will soon arrive at the scheduled boarding point, or the vehicle T will arrive at the scheduled boarding point within a predetermined period (for example, within 5 minutes). Etc.) may be information indicating that the vehicle will arrive.

The notification unit 368 may directly notify the information terminal 1 of the arrival information. In this case, the vehicle allocation request information notified by the vehicle allocation management device 2 may further include information about the user U such as a telephone number and an e-mail address. In this way, the first route presenting unit 363 presents the user interface as shown in FIG. 4B to the driver in response to the arrival of the vehicle T at the scheduled boarding point, so that the driver can use the vehicle T. It is possible to notify the user U that he / she has arrived at the scheduled boarding point.

Returning to FIG. 3, when the vehicle T arrives at the scheduled boarding point, which is the arrival point of the first route presented to the driver, the first route presenting unit 363 positions the user U at the time of arriving at the planned boarding point. When the distance from the vehicle to the planned boarding point is long, the route from the position of the vehicle T to the position of the user U may be presented to the driver as a new first route. Specifically, when the position of the vehicle T is included in a predetermined range including the planned boarding point, the first route presenting unit 363 of the user U at the time when the position of the vehicle T is included in the predetermined range. When the distance from the position to the planned boarding point is longer than the predetermined first threshold value (for example, 100 meters), the route from the position of the vehicle T to the position of the user U at the time when the position of the vehicle T is included in the predetermined range is taken. It may be presented to the driver as a new first route. For example, when the position of the vehicle T is included in a predetermined range including the planned boarding point, the first route presenting unit 363 provides information indicating the position of the user U from the information terminal 1 via the vehicle allocation management device 2. You may get it. By doing so, the driver can pick up the user U who has left the planned boarding point. Details of the second route presentation unit 364 will be described later.

The boarding detection unit 365 detects that the user U has boarded the vehicle T. Specifically, the boarding detection unit 365 detects that the user U has boarded the vehicle T based on the driver's operation caused by the user U boarding the vehicle T. The boarding detection unit 365 switches, for example, the business state of the vehicle T from a state indicating that the driver is going to pick up the passenger (for example, picking up) to a business state indicating that the passenger has boarded (for example, renting or an actual vehicle). When the operation for the above is performed, it is detected that the user U has boarded the vehicle T.

Specifically, first, the state information acquisition unit 366 acquires the state information indicating the business state of the vehicle T. Then, the boarding detection unit 365 detects that the user U has boarded when the state information acquisition unit 366 acquires the state information indicating that the passenger has boarded.

For example, when the driver performs an operation for switching the business state on a display (taximeter) (not shown) that displays the business state of the vehicle T installed in the vehicle T, the state information acquisition unit 366 , The status information indicating the business status may be acquired from the display. Specifically, first, the state information acquisition unit 366 acquires the state information from the display when the business state is switched on the display. Then, when the boarding detection unit 365 acquires the state information indicating that the passenger is going to be picked up by the state information acquisition unit 366 and then the state information acquisition unit 366 acquires the state information indicating that the passenger has boarded. Detects that the user U has boarded. Further, for example, when the vehicle terminal 3 can perform an operation for switching the business state, the state information acquisition unit 366 receives an operation for switching to the business state at the operation reception unit 367, and the operation reception unit 366 receives the operation. Status information indicating the business status may be acquired from 367.

Further, the boarding detection unit 365 is for opening and closing the door of the vehicle T after the first route presenting unit 363 presents the first route, for example, as a driver's operation caused by the user U getting on the vehicle T. When the driver performs the operation, it may be detected that the user U has boarded. Further, for example, when the vehicle T is provided with a motion sensor (for example, a weight sensor provided in the seat or a camera having a face detection function) (for example, a camera having a face detection function), the boarding detection unit 365 presents the first route. After the unit 363 presents the first route, when the motion sensor detects the presence of a person, it may be detected that the user U has boarded.

When the user U gets on the vehicle T, the second route presenting unit 364 presents to the driver a second route which is a route from the planned boarding point to the destination designated by the user U. Specifically, the second route presenting unit 364 presents the second route to the driver when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the user U's boarding. The second route presentation unit 364 searches for the second route when, for example, the operation reception unit 367 receives an operation for accepting the vehicle allocation request by the driver, and stores the searched second route in the storage unit 35. After that, when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the user U's boarding, the second route presenting unit 364 presents the second route stored in the storage unit 35 to the driver. By doing so, the second route presenting unit 364 can quickly present the second route to the driver.

The second route presentation unit 364 may search for the second route when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the boarding of the user U. In this case, the second route presenting unit 364 is the destination specified by the user U from the position of the vehicle T indicated by the position information acquired by the position information acquisition unit 32 when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the user U's boarding. The route up to may be presented to the driver as the second route.

When the second route presented unit 364 stores the second route searched in advance in the storage unit 35, the distance from the planned boarding point where the user U wants to dispatch the vehicle to the point where the user U boarded the vehicle T is long. In that case, the second route may be re-searched. Specifically, when the distance from the position of the vehicle T to the planned boarding point at the time when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the boarding of the user U is longer than the predetermined second threshold value, the second route presenting unit 364 said the vehicle. The route from the position of T to the destination may be presented to the driver as the second route. The predetermined second threshold value may be the same value as the predetermined first threshold value, or may be a different value. By doing so, the second route presenting unit 364 can present an accurate route to the driver.

By the way, in recent years, the so-called shared taxi ride, in which a plurality of transportation contracts are concluded in one transportation, is being lifted. If the taxi carpooling is lifted, it is possible that a plurality of users U having different destinations will board the vehicle T. For example, after the first user who is the user U who specified the first destination gets on board, the second user who is a user U different from the first user and specifies a second destination different from the first destination. When the vehicle gets on board, the vehicle terminal 3 needs to present the driver with the route to the first destination and the second destination. Therefore, when the second user gets on after presenting the second route with the first destination designated by the first user as the arrival point to the driver, the second route presenting unit 364 sets a new route for each destination. It may be presented to the driver.

Specifically, first, the boarding detection unit 365 further detects that the second user has boarded the vehicle T after the second route presenting unit 364 presents the second route to the driver. Then, when the second destination is designated, the second route presenting unit 364 sets the position of the vehicle T at the time when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the boarding of the second user as the starting point, and sets the first destination and the first destination. Present the driver with a new second route with one of the two destinations as the arrival point. The second route presenting unit 364 has, for example, a new first destination having the destination closest to the position of the vehicle T at the time when the second user gets on the vehicle T among the first destination and the second destination as the arrival point. Two routes may be presented to the driver.

In the second route presentation unit 364, after presenting the new second route to the driver, the user U (for example, the first user) whose destination (for example, the first destination) is the arrival point of the new second route gets off. In this case, the driver may be presented with a route to a destination specified by another user U (for example, a second user) different from the user U who got off. Specifically, the second route presenting unit 364 presents the driver with a new second route, and then the boarding detection unit 365 detects the disembarkation of the user U of either the first user or the second user. In some cases, the third route may be presented to the driver. The third route is a route from the position of the vehicle T at the time when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the disembarkation of one user to the destination designated by the other user U different from the one user U.

For example, when the first user gets off the second route presenting unit 364, the current position of the vehicle T (position information acquired by the position information acquisition unit 32 when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the disembarkation of the first user). The driver may be presented with a third route, which is a route from the position of the vehicle T indicated by the driver to the second destination designated by the second user.

In the boarding detection unit 365, for example, when information about the third route is stored in the storage unit 35, some users U may use the operation of the driver due to the user U getting off the vehicle T. Detects that the vehicle has disembarked from the vehicle T. Specifically, first, when the second route presenting unit 364 presents the destination of either the first destination or the second destination to the driver as the arrival point of the new second route, the second route presenting unit 364 presents the driver. Information about the other destination (for example, position coordinates or address) is stored in the storage unit 35 as information about the third route. Then, the boarding detection unit 365 is caused by the fact that the user U of either the first user or the second user gets off the vehicle T when the information regarding the third route is stored in the storage unit 35. When the driver performs the operation, it is detected that one user U has disembarked from the vehicle T.

The "driver's operation caused by the user U getting off the vehicle T" is, for example, an operation for opening and closing the door of the vehicle T, or a fare calculation function (for example, a taximeter) corresponding to carpooling provided in the vehicle terminal 3. This is an operation for settling the fare for some passengers getting off at. The boarding detection unit 365 is, for example, an operation for the driver to open and close the door of the vehicle T after the driver performs an operation for adjusting the fare for some passengers who get off using the fare calculation function. May be detected that some users U have disembarked from the vehicle T. Further, the boarding detection unit 365 indicates that, for example, some users U have disembarked from the vehicle T when the motion sensor provided in the vehicle T cannot detect the presence of some people. It may be detected. In this way, the second route presenting unit 364 presents a plurality of different routes (new second route and third route) to the driver according to the boarding / alighting of some users U, which is appropriate for the driver. Multiple routes can be switched at any time.

[Processing of route presentation system S]
Subsequently, the processing flow of the route presentation system S will be described. FIG. 5 is a workflow showing the processing flow of the route presentation system S. The workflow shown in FIG. 5 is started when the receiving unit 361 receives the vehicle allocation request information including the planned boarding point information and the destination information from the vehicle allocation management device 2 via the communication unit 31 (S1). ..

The first route presentation unit 363 presents to the driver the first route, which is the route from the current position of the vehicle T to the planned boarding point on which the user U is to be boarded (S2). Specifically, the first route presenting unit 363 presents the first route to the driver by displaying the first route on the display unit 33.

The second route presentation unit 364 determines whether or not the boarding detection unit 365 has detected the boarding of the user U (S3). When the second route presenting unit 364 determines that the boarding detection unit 365 has not detected the boarding of the user U (NO in S3), the second route presenting unit 364 returns the process to S3.

On the other hand, when the boarding detection unit 365 determines that the boarding of the user U has been detected (YES in S3), the second route presenting unit 364 is a route from the planned boarding point to the destination designated by the user U. The second route is presented to the driver (S4). Specifically, when the boarding detection unit 365 detects the user U's boarding, the second route presenting unit 364 presents the second route to the driver by displaying the second route on the display unit 33.

[Modification example]
In the above, the example in which the vehicle terminal 3 presents the first route and the second route has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the vehicle allocation management device 2 may present the first route and the second route to the driver. In this case, the vehicle terminal 3 functions as a display unit of the vehicle allocation management device 2. Specifically, the vehicle allocation management device 2 causes the vehicle terminal 3 to display the first route by transmitting information indicating the first route to the vehicle terminal 3. Further, the vehicle terminal 3 functions as a boarding detection unit of the vehicle allocation management device 2. Specifically, when the vehicle allocation management device 2 detects that the user U has boarded the vehicle T by the vehicle terminal 3, the vehicle allocation management device 2 transmits the information indicating the second route to the vehicle terminal 3 to obtain the second route. Displayed on the vehicle terminal 3.
