INFORMATION PROVISION APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROVISION METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18021479 titled 'INFORMATION PROVISION APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROVISION METHOD, AND PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an information provision apparatus that collects data from sensors installed on vehicles to track their movement on a road. The apparatus includes a database to store the acquired data, a user-specific processing content storage to store user-defined processing content for each data user, a data processing part to generate secondary data for the data users based on the user-specific processing content and the primary data, and a data transmission part to send the secondary data to the data users.

  • The apparatus collects data from sensors installed on vehicles to track their movement on a road.
  • The acquired data is stored in a database.
  • User-specific processing content is defined and stored for each data user.
  • The data processing part generates secondary data for the data users based on the user-specific processing content and the primary data.
  • The secondary data is transmitted to the data users.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Traffic monitoring and analysis: The apparatus can provide real-time data on vehicle movement, allowing for better traffic management and analysis.
  • Vehicle tracking and navigation: The collected data can be used to track vehicles and provide navigation assistance to drivers.
  • Road condition monitoring: The sensors can detect road conditions, such as potholes or icy patches, and provide alerts to drivers or road maintenance teams.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Lack of real-time data: The apparatus collects real-time data on vehicle movement, providing accurate and up-to-date information.
  • Inefficient traffic management: The collected data can help optimize traffic flow and reduce congestion on roads.
  • Limited navigation assistance: The apparatus can provide more accurate and personalized navigation guidance based on real-time vehicle movement data.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved traffic flow: The data collected and processed by the apparatus can help optimize traffic flow, reducing travel time and congestion.
  • Enhanced road safety: Real-time data on road conditions and vehicle movement can improve safety by providing timely alerts and warnings.
  • Personalized navigation: The user-specific processing content allows for personalized navigation assistance tailored to individual preferences and needs.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information provision apparatus includes: a data acquisition part that acquires data from a sensor(s) installed to grasp movement of a vehicle(s) traveling on a road; a database that accumulates primary data acquired by the sensor(s); a user-specific processing content storage part that stores a user-specific processing content(s) defining a processing content(s) on the primary data for each data user; a data processing part that reads out the user-specific processing content(s) stored in the user-specific processing content storage part and creates secondary data for the data user(s) from the primary data; and a data transmission part that transmits the secondary data to the data user(s).
