Information processing device for managing operation of an on-demand bus, information processing method for managing operation of an on-demand bus, and information processing system for managing operation of an on-demand bus
An information processing device of the present disclosure includes a control unit configured to control a plurality of output devices provided in an operation area of an on-demand bus. The control unit identifies a first output device close to a boarding place of the on-demand bus among the output devices. The control unit transmits a first command to output an indication of a bus stop of the on-demand bus to the first output device at a first timing that is earlier by a first time length than a boarding date of a user.
1 . An information processing device comprising a control unit configured to:
identify a first output device close to a boarding place of an on-demand bus; and
transmit, to the first output device, a first command to output an indication of a bus stop of the on-demand bus;
wherein the control unit is configured to transmit the first command to the first output device when a terminal of a user expected to board the on-demand bus at the boarding place has entered a first area including the boarding place;
wherein the first output device is a signage device installed on a guardrail close to the boarding place, and
wherein the control unit is configured to transmit a command to output a sign indicating the bus stop to the signage device as the first command.
2 . The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit is configured to transmit, to the first output device, a second command to stop output of the indication of the bus stop at a timing when the user has boarded the on-demand bus.
3 . An information processing device comprising a control unit configured to:
identify a first output device close to a boarding place of an on-demand bus; and
transmit, to the first output device, a first command to output an indication of a bus stop of the on-demand bus;
wherein the control unit is configured to transmit the first command to the first output device when a terminal of a user expected to board the on-demand bus at the boarding place has entered a first area including the boarding place,
wherein the first output device is a signage device attached to a shop close to the boarding place, and
wherein the control unit is configured to transmit a command to output a sign indicating the bus stop to the signage device as the first command.
4 . An information processing system comprising:
a plurality of output devices installed on and around, or on or around roads in an operation area of an on-demand bus; and
a server device connected to the output devices via a network,
wherein the server device is configured to:
identify a first output device close to a boarding place of the on-demand bus among the output devices; and
transmit, to the first output device, a first command to output an indication of a bus stop of the on-demand bus;
wherein the first output device is a first streetlight installed close to the boarding place, and
wherein the server device is configured to transmit, to the first streetlight as the first command, a command to turn ON the first streetlight in a manner different from manners of the other streetlights installed around the boarding place.
5 . The information processing system according to claim 4 , wherein the server device is configured to transmit, to the first streetlight as the first command, a command to turn ON the first streetlight in a light color different from light colors of the other streetlights installed around the boarding place.
6 . The information processing system according to claim 4 , wherein the server device is configured to transmit, to the first streetlight as the first command, a command to turn the first streetlight intermittently ON when the other streetlights installed around the boarding place stay continuously ON.
7 . The information processing system according to claim 4 , wherein the server device is configured to transmit, to the first streetlight as the first command, a command to keep the first streetlight continuously ON or turn the first streetlight intermittently ON when the other streetlights installed around the boarding place stay continuously OFF.
