INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18381710 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes an information processing apparatus that generates information for reserving a service for a vehicle. The apparatus outputs a reservation slot based on the time required for the service provider to move to the vehicle's position.

  • The controller in the information processing apparatus generates information for reserving a service for a vehicle.
  • The reservation slot output by the apparatus is based on the time required for the service provider to reach the vehicle's position.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various industries such as transportation, logistics, and automotive services.

Problems Solved

This technology streamlines the process of reserving services for vehicles by optimizing the time required for service providers to reach the vehicle's location.

Benefits

- Improved efficiency in reserving services for vehicles - Enhanced user experience by providing accurate reservation slots

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing service reservations for ride-sharing companies Enhancing logistics operations for delivery services

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be a system that generates reservation slots based on the availability of service providers, but not specifically based on the time required for them to reach the customer's location.

Unanswered Questions

How does the controller determine the optimal time required for the service provider to reach the vehicle's position?

The abstract does not provide details on the specific method used to calculate the time required for the service provider to move to the vehicle's location.

Are there any limitations to the types of services that can be reserved using this technology?

The abstract does not mention any restrictions on the services that can be reserved, so it is unclear if there are any limitations in this regard.
