Remote control system, remote control deactivation device, and remote control deactivation method

1 . A remote control system, comprising:

a moving object configured to be movable by remote control, the moving object including a deactivation execution unit configured to reversibly or irreversibly deactivate the remote control,

wherein when the deactivation execution unit has irreversibly deactivated the remote control, the moving object is configured to be movable in response to a driver operation from inside the vehicle;

a position information acquisition unit configured to acquire position information regarding the moving object;

a determination unit configured to determine whether the moving object is located inside a predetermined first region and whether the moving object is located inside a predetermined second region using the position information, the second region being different from the first region; and

a deactivation command unit configured to supply a first command to the moving object when the determination unit determines that the moving object is located inside the first region, the first command being a command for causing the deactivation execution unit to reversibly deactivate the remote control, the deactivation command unit configured to supply a second command to the moving object when the determination unit determines that the moving object is located inside the second region, the second command being a command for causing the deactivation execution unit to irreversibly deactivate the remote control.

2 . The remote control system according to claim 1 , wherein

the moving object is moved by the remote control in a factory where the moving object is produced.

3 . The remote control system according to claim 1 , wherein

the deactivation execution unit deactivates the remote control after a predetermined time period has elapsed since acquiring the first command or the second command.

4 . The remote control system according to claim 1 , wherein

the deactivation execution unit deactivates the remote control when the moving object has moved a predetermined distance after acquiring the first command or the second command.

5 . The remote control system according to claim 1 , wherein

the deactivation execution unit deactivates the remote control when a speed of the moving object exceeds a predetermined speed after acquiring the first command or the second command.

6 . The remote control system according to claim 1 , wherein

the determination unit determines whether the moving object is located inside a predetermined third region using the position information, the third region being different from both the first region and the second region,

the deactivation command unit supplies a third command to the moving object when the determination unit determines that the moving object is located inside the third region, the third command being a command for causing the deactivation execution unit to activate the remote control, and

the deactivation execution unit activates the remote control when acquiring the third command after reversibly deactivating the remote control.

7 . A remote control deactivation device, comprising:

a memory storing a program; and

at least one processor operatively connected to the memory, wherein the at least one processor is configured to execute the program to:

acquire position information regarding a moving object, wherein the moving object is configured to be movable by remote control, wherein the moving object is configured to reversibly or irreversibly deactivate the remote control,

wherein when the moving object has irreversibly deactivated the remote control, the moving object is configured to be movable in response to a driver operation from inside the vehicle;

determine whether the moving object is located inside a predetermined first region and whether the moving object is located inside a predetermined second region using the position information, the second region being different from the first region;

supply a first command to the moving object when the moving object is located inside the first region, the first command being a command to reversibly deactivate the remote control; and

supply a second command to the moving object when the moving object is located inside the second region, the second command being a command to irreversibly deactivate the remote control.

8 . A remote control deactivation method, comprising:

acquiring position information regarding a moving object, wherein the moving object is configured to be movable by remote control;

determining whether the moving object is located inside a predetermined first region and whether the moving object is located inside a predetermined second region using the position information, the second region being different from the first region; and

reversibly deactivating the remote control when it is determined that the moving object is located inside the first region, and irreversibly deactivating the remote control when it is determined that the moving object is located inside the second region using the position information,

wherein when the moving object has irreversibly deactivated the remote control, the moving object is configured to be movable in response to a driver operation from inside the vehicle.
