OPERATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240321095 titled 'OPERATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The patent application describes an operation management system designed to oversee the operations of registered mobilities within a specific area. Here are the key features and innovations of this system:
- Generation of road surface map data linking positional information with road surface conditions obtained from registered mobilities.
- Calculation of puddle formation locations based on water sprinkling information or weather data and the road surface map.
- Selection of a designated mobility and adjustment of its route based on the identified puddle location.
- Transmission of modified route commands to the designated mobility.
Potential Applications: This technology could be applied in smart city infrastructure management, autonomous vehicle navigation systems, and road maintenance operations.
Problems Solved: The system addresses issues related to real-time road surface monitoring, hazard detection, and route optimization for vehicles in changing conditions.
Benefits: Enhanced safety for drivers and pedestrians, improved traffic flow, and more efficient use of resources for road maintenance.
Commercial Applications: Title: Smart Mobility Management System for Enhanced Road Safety This technology could be utilized by transportation authorities, fleet management companies, and autonomous vehicle manufacturers to optimize mobility operations and ensure safer travel experiences.
Prior Art: Researchers may want to explore existing patents related to road surface monitoring systems, autonomous vehicle navigation technologies, and smart city infrastructure management solutions.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about advancements in IoT sensors for road condition monitoring, machine learning algorithms for route optimization, and data analytics for mobility management systems.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system differentiate between different types of road surface conditions? 2. What are the potential privacy implications of collecting and analyzing data from registered mobilities?
Original Abstract Submitted
an operation management system configured to manage operations of registered mobilities in a limited specific area, including a computer configured to: generate a road surface map data such that a position in map data and road surface information are associated with each other, based on positional information and road surface information obtained from at least one of the registered mobilities on which a road surface condition detecting device is installed; compute a positon where a puddle is formed, based on i) one of water sprinkling information that is information on water sprinkling over a road surface by a sprinkler vehicle or weather information of the specific area and ii) the road surface map data; designate a designation mobility from among the registered mobilities and modify a target route of the designation mobility based on the puddle position; and send a command regarding the modified target route to the designation mobility.
