Abstract

In an information processing device, an acquisition unit acquires information on a position of an occupant from a vehicle that is in an accident. A reception unit receives a manipulation input from an operator. A determination unit determines directivity of a microphone in a vehicle cabin of the vehicle based on the manipulation input received by the reception unit.

Claims (20)

1. An information processing device comprising:

an acquisition unit configured to acquire information on a position of an occupant from a vehicle that is in an accident;

a reception unit configured to receive a manipulation input from an operator external to the vehicle; and

a determination unit configured to determine directivity of a microphone in a vehicle cabin of the vehicle based on the manipulation input, wherein,

the information processing device includes a display unit that displays an image representing a seating position of the occupant and a state of the occupant based on the information on the occupant,

the acquisition unit acquires information on an open and closed state of a window from the vehicle,

the display unit displays an image representing the open and closed state of the window, and

the determination unit determines the directivity of the microphone to be a direction of a designated window of the occupant in the accident based on the manipulation input for designating the window in the image displayed on the display unit.

2. An information processing device comprising:

an acquisition unit configured to acquire information on an occupant from a vehicle that is in an accident;

a display unit configured to display an image representing a seating position of the occupant and a state of the occupant based on the information on the occupant and

a determination unit configured to determine directivity of a microphone in a vehicle cabin of the vehicle based on a manipulation input, wherein

the acquisition unit acquires information on an open and closed state of a window from the vehicle,

the display unit displays an image representing the open and closed state of the window, and

the determination unit determines the directivity of the microphone to be a direction of a designated window of the occupant in the accident based on the manipulation input for designating the window in the image displayed on the display unit.

3. An information processing method comprising:

an acquisition step of acquiring information on a position of an occupant from a vehicle that is in an accident and of acquiring information on an open and closed state of a window from the vehicle;

a reception step of receiving a manipulation input from an operator external to the vehicle;

displaying on a display unit an image representing the open and closed state of the window; and

a determination step of determining directivity of a microphone in a vehicle cabin of the vehicle based on the manipulation input received in the reception step, the directivity of the microphone being a direction of a designated window of the occupant in the accident based on the manipulation input for designating the window in the image displayed on the display unit.
