INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240242607 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes an information processing device that can provide information about the surroundings and parked location of a second vehicle with a power supply function to a first terminal corresponding to a first vehicle.

  • The control unit of the device receives a request for information about the second vehicle from the first terminal.
  • It acquires the parked location and surroundings information of the second vehicle triggered by the request.
  • The control unit determines if there is a parking space around the second vehicle based on the acquired information.
  • If a parking space is found, the control unit sends the parked location information of the second vehicle to the first terminal.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Information processing device for providing details about a second vehicle to a first terminal.
  • Acquires parked location and surroundings information of the second vehicle.
  • Determines the availability of parking space around the second vehicle.
  • Sends parked location information to the first terminal if parking space is available.

Potential Applications: This technology can be used in smart parking systems, vehicle tracking services, and navigation applications.

Problems Solved: The technology helps in providing real-time information about parking availability and the location of vehicles, improving efficiency in parking management.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced convenience for drivers in finding parking spaces.
  • Improved utilization of parking areas.
  • Efficient vehicle tracking and monitoring.

Commercial Applications: This technology can be utilized by parking management companies, car rental services, and smart city initiatives to optimize parking resources and enhance user experience.

Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include patents or research on vehicle tracking systems, smart parking solutions, and location-based services.

Frequently Updated Research: Researchers may be exploring advancements in vehicle-to-vehicle communication, parking sensor technologies, and data analytics for parking management systems.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the information processing device determine the availability of parking space around the second vehicle? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in real-world parking scenarios?


Original Abstract Submitted

in the information processing device according to the present disclosure, the control unit receives a first request requesting information on a second vehicle having a power supply function from a first terminal corresponding to the first vehicle. the control unit acquires the parked location of the second vehicle and the first information on the surroundings of the second vehicle, triggered by the reception of the first information. the control unit determines whether there is a parking space around the second vehicle based on the parked location of the second vehicle or the first information. when it is determined that there is a parking space around the second vehicle, the control unit sends second information including the parked location of the second vehicle to the first terminal.
