PASSAGE INFORMATION PROVIDING DEVICE, PASSAGE INFORMATION PROVIDING METHOD, AND PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18751725 titled 'PASSAGE INFORMATION PROVIDING DEVICE, PASSAGE INFORMATION PROVIDING METHOD, AND PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM

The abstract of the patent application describes a device that gathers information on the movement of people on a road to determine if the road is passable. The device uses this data to estimate the passability of the road and provides information on its availability.

  • The device acquires people flow information on road movement.
  • It estimates road passability based on the acquired data.
  • The device outputs information on the availability of passage.
  • The technology helps in determining the state of road passability.
  • It provides real-time information on road conditions.

Potential Applications: - Traffic management systems - Urban planning - Emergency response coordination

Problems Solved: - Uncertainty about road passability - Lack of real-time data on road conditions

Benefits: - Improved traffic flow - Enhanced safety for drivers and pedestrians - Efficient emergency response

Commercial Applications: Title: Real-time Road Passability Monitoring System This technology can be utilized by transportation departments, city planners, and emergency services to enhance road safety and traffic management.

Questions about Road Passability Monitoring System: 1. How does the device acquire people flow information? The device uses sensors or cameras to track the movement of individuals on the road. 2. What are the potential benefits of using this technology in emergency response situations? This technology can provide crucial information to emergency services to make informed decisions during crises.


Original Abstract Submitted

A passage information providing device acquires information regarding movement of people on a road as people flow information. The passage information providing device estimates whether the road is passable by using the people flow information that has been acquired. The passage information providing device outputs passage availability information indicating the estimated state of whether the road is passable.
