This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17949480 titled 'SYSTEM FOR GUIDING EVACUATION AT A TIME OF A DISASTER, METHOD FOR GUIDING EVACUATION AT A TIME OF A DISASTER, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a system for guiding evacuation during a disaster. Here are the key points:

* The system includes a wireless communicator installed in a vehicle, which can receive information about a disaster from an external communication device.
* A display is installed in the vehicle to show information, and a notification device is also present to inform the vehicle occupant about important information.
* The system's processor, connected to a memory, performs several functions:
  * When it receives information about a disaster, it proposes a route for the vehicle to reach a safe destination.
  * The display shows the destination and the suggested route.
  * The notification device informs the vehicle occupant about the level of crowding at the destination or along the route.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Emergency management systems: This system can be used by emergency management agencies to guide evacuations during disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes, or wildfires.
* Public transportation systems: Public transportation vehicles can be equipped with this system to guide passengers during emergencies and ensure their safety.
* Personal vehicles: Individuals can install this system in their vehicles to receive real-time information and guidance during disasters.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Lack of guidance during emergencies: This system provides a clear and efficient route for vehicles to reach a safe destination during a disaster, reducing confusion and improving evacuation efforts.
* Limited information for vehicle occupants: The notification device keeps the vehicle occupant informed about the status of crowding at the destination or along the route, helping them make informed decisions.

Benefits of this technology:

* Improved evacuation efficiency: By proposing the best route to the destination, this system helps vehicles evacuate quickly and safely, reducing congestion and potential accidents.
* Enhanced situational awareness: The display and notification device provide real-time information about the disaster and the status of the destination or route, allowing vehicle occupants to make informed decisions.
* Increased safety: By guiding vehicles away from crowded areas, this system helps prevent overcrowding and ensures the safety of both the vehicle occupants and the people at the destination.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A system for guiding evacuation at a time of a disaster, including: a wireless communicator installed at a vehicle and is able to receive information relating to occurrence of a disaster from an external communication device; a display installed at the vehicle and that is able to display information; a notification device installed at the vehicle and that is able to notify an occupant of the vehicle of information; and a processor coupled to a memory, the processor is configured to: in response to information expressing that a disaster has occurred being received from the wireless communicator, propose a traveling route to a destination of the vehicle, and cause the display to display the destination and the traveling route, and cause the notification device to notify the vehicle occupant of information relating to a status of crowding of at least one of the destination and the traveling route.
