INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18363738 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that assigns operation routes to fuel cell vehicles based on the load placed on the fuel cell, prioritizing routes that place a smaller load on a fuel cell with higher deterioration.

  • The controller in the apparatus executes an assignment process to preferentially assign operation routes to fuel cell vehicles.
  • The assignment process prioritizes routes that place a smaller load on the fuel cell.
  • Among a plurality of fuel cell vehicles, the apparatus targets vehicles with fuel cells that have a higher degree of deterioration for route assignment.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Fleet management systems for fuel cell vehicles.
  • Energy optimization in transportation networks.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient allocation of operation routes for fuel cell vehicles.
  • Extending the lifespan of fuel cells in deteriorating conditions.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved fuel cell vehicle performance.
  • Enhanced operational efficiency in transportation systems.
  • Cost savings through optimized route assignments.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus includes a controller. The controller executes an assignment process to preferentially assign an operation route that places a smaller load on a fuel cell among a plurality of operation routes to a fuel cell vehicle including a fuel cell that has a higher degree of deterioration among a plurality of fuel cell vehicles.
