特開２０１１−５４１１６号公報JP 2011-54116 A

しかしながら、従来技術は、駐車場の運用効率に着目しているだけで、ユーザの利便性には着目できていないという課題がある。   However, the conventional technique has a problem that it is not only paying attention to the convenience of the user but only paying attention to the operation efficiency of the parking lot.

本発明は、自動運転車の特徴を生かして駐車場を利用するユーザの利便性を向上させる駐車場管理装置を提供することを目的とする。   An object of this invention is to provide the parking lot management apparatus which improves the convenience of the user who utilizes a parking lot taking advantage of the characteristic of an autonomous driving vehicle.

本発明の駐車場管理装置は、通信手段を有する自動運転車用の、複数の車室と車路と入場エリアと出場エリアを有する駐車場を管理する。本発明の駐車場管理装置は、記録部、自動運転車通信部、車両ＩＤ取得部、車両登録部、車室指示部、出場指示部を備える。自動運転車通信部は、自動運転車と通信するための機能を有する。車両ＩＤ取得部は、自動運転車の車両を識別するための車両ＩＤを取得する。車両登録部は、自動運転車の入場時刻と車両ＩＤとを対応付けて記録部に記録する。車室指示部は、自動運転車に駐車する車室を指示する車室情報を送信する。また、車室指示部は、いずれかの車室に駐車している自動運転車に対して、その車室よりも出場エリアに近い別の車室への移動の指示も行う。出場指示部は、車両ＩＤを指定した出場の指示を取得すると、当該車両ＩＤの自動運転車に出場エリアへ移動する出場指示を行う。   The parking lot management apparatus of the present invention manages a parking lot having a plurality of passenger compartments, a roadway, an entrance area, and an exit area for an autonomous vehicle having communication means. The parking lot management apparatus of the present invention includes a recording unit, an autonomous driving vehicle communication unit, a vehicle ID acquisition unit, a vehicle registration unit, a vehicle room instruction unit, and an entry instruction unit. The autonomous driving vehicle communication unit has a function for communicating with the autonomous driving vehicle. A vehicle ID acquisition part acquires vehicle ID for identifying the vehicle of an autonomous driving vehicle. The vehicle registration unit records the entry time of the autonomous driving vehicle and the vehicle ID in association with each other in the recording unit. The vehicle compartment instruction section transmits vehicle compartment information that instructs a vehicle compartment to be parked in the autonomous driving vehicle. The vehicle compartment instruction unit also instructs a self-driving vehicle parked in any vehicle compartment to move to another vehicle compartment that is closer to the entry area than the vehicle compartment. When the participation instructing unit acquires an instruction for participation in which the vehicle ID is designated, the participation instruction unit instructs the automatic driving vehicle with the vehicle ID to move to the participation area.

本発明の駐車場管理装置によれば、車室指示部が、いずれかの車室に駐車している自動運転車に対して、その車室よりも出場エリアに近い別の車室への移動の指示も行う。出場エリアに近い別の車室に移動した自動運転車は、出場までの時間が短くなる車室に移動することになるので、ユーザにとっては出場時の待ち時間を短縮できる。このように、本発明の駐車場管理装置は、無人で移動できる自動運転車の特徴を利用し、駐車場内で車室を変更しているので、出場時の待ち時間を短縮できる。したがって、ユーザの利便性を向上できる。   According to the parking lot management apparatus of the present invention, the vehicle compartment instructing unit moves to another vehicle compartment that is closer to the entry area than the vehicle compartment for an autonomous driving vehicle parked in one of the vehicle compartments. Also give instructions. Since the self-driving car that has moved to another compartment close to the entry area will move to the compartment where the time until entry will be shortened, the waiting time for entry can be shortened for the user. Thus, since the parking lot management apparatus of the present invention uses the characteristics of an autonomous driving vehicle that can be moved unattended and changes the passenger compartment in the parking lot, the waiting time at entry can be shortened. Therefore, user convenience can be improved.

以下、本発明の実施の形態について、詳細に説明する。なお、同じ機能を有する構成部には同じ番号を付し、重複説明を省略する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. In addition, the same number is attached | subjected to the structure part which has the same function, and duplication description is abbreviate | omitted.

図１に本発明の駐車場管理システムの構成例を示す。駐車場管理システム１０は、少なくとも駐車場管理装置１００及び、駐車場管理装置１００とネットワーク５００を介して接続されている入場エリア装置３００、出場エリア装置７００を備える。なお、入場エリアと出場エリアが同一の場合や近い場合は、入場エリア装置３００と出場エリア装置７００とは一体でもよい。駐車場管理装置１００は、自動運転車２００−１〜Ｎ（ただしＮは１以上の整数）、ユーザ端末９００ともネットワークを介して接続される。   FIG. 1 shows a configuration example of a parking lot management system of the present invention. The parking lot management system 10 includes at least a parking lot management device 100, and an entrance area device 300 and a participation area device 700 connected to the parking lot management device 100 via a network 500. In addition, when the entrance area and the entrance area are the same or close, the entrance area device 300 and the entrance area device 700 may be integrated. The parking lot management apparatus 100 is also connected to the autonomous driving vehicles 200-1 to 200-N (where N is an integer of 1 or more) and the user terminal 900 via a network.

駐車場管理装置１００は、通信手段を有する自動運転車用の、複数の車室（駐車スペース）と車路と入場エリアと出場エリアを有する駐車場を管理する。駐車場管理装置１００は、記録部１９０、自動運転車通信部１１０、車両ＩＤ取得部１２０、車両登録部１３０、車室指示部１４０、出場指示部１５０を備える。自動運転車通信部１１０は、自動運転車２００−ｎ（ただし、ｎは１以上Ｎ以下の整数）と通信するための機能を有する。なお、自動運転車には独自の通信インターフェースが用意されていることもあり得る。そのような場合には、自動運転車通信部１１０のインターフェースを自動運転車ごとのインターフェースに適合させるための車両誘導装置を用意しておき、入場エリアで、車両誘導装置２１０−ｎを自動運転車２００−ｎに搭載し、出場エリアで取り外すようにしてもよい。以下の説明では、自動運転車通信部１１０と自動運転車２００−ｎとは通信が可能であることを前提に説明する。   The parking lot management apparatus 100 manages a parking lot having a plurality of vehicle compartments (parking spaces), a roadway, an entrance area, and an exit area for an autonomous driving vehicle having communication means. The parking lot management apparatus 100 includes a recording unit 190, an autonomous driving vehicle communication unit 110, a vehicle ID acquisition unit 120, a vehicle registration unit 130, a vehicle compartment instruction unit 140, and an entry instruction unit 150. The autonomous driving vehicle communication unit 110 has a function for communicating with the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n (where n is an integer of 1 to N). Note that an autonomous communication vehicle may have its own communication interface. In such a case, a vehicle guidance device for adapting the interface of the autonomous vehicle communication unit 110 to the interface for each autonomous vehicle is prepared, and the vehicle guidance device 210-n is automatically operated in the entrance area. It may be mounted on 200-n and removed in the participation area. The following description will be made on the assumption that the autonomous driving vehicle communication unit 110 and the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n can communicate with each other.

図２は自動運転車が入場エリアに進入してから車室に移動開始するまでの処理フローの例、図３は自動運転車が車室に移動している状態から移動終了までの処理フローの例である。まず、自動運転車２００−ｎが入場エリアに進入する（Ｓ２１１−ｎ）。入場エリア装置３００は、自動運転車２００−ｎの車両を識別するための車両ＩＤを取得し、駐車場管理装置１００に送信する（Ｓ３００）。車両ＩＤ取得部１２０は、自動運転車２００−ｎの車両を識別するための車両ＩＤを取得する（Ｓ１２０−ｎ）。例えば「車両ＩＤ」として車番を用いる場合は、入場エリア装置３００にカメラと車番識別機能を備えておけば車両ＩＤを取得できる。ただし、「車両ＩＤ」としては、車番に限定する必要はなく、ユーザの電話番号やメールアドレスを用いても構わない。ユーザの電話番号の場合は、例えば入場エリア装置３００に電話番号を入力し、入力された電話番号を「車両ＩＤ」として駐車場管理装置１００に送信してもよい（Ｓ３００）。また、ユーザのメールアドレスの場合は、例えばユーザ端末９００から入場エリア装置３００にメールアドレスを送ってもよい（Ｓ３００）。車両登録部１３０は、自動運転車２００−ｎの入場時刻と車両ＩＤとを対応付けて記録部１９０に記録する（Ｓ１３０−ｎ）。   Fig. 2 shows an example of the processing flow from when the autonomous driving vehicle enters the entrance area until it starts moving into the passenger compartment. Fig. 3 shows the processing flow from when the autonomous driving vehicle moves to the passenger compartment until the end of movement. It is an example. First, the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n enters the entrance area (S211-n). The entrance area device 300 acquires a vehicle ID for identifying the vehicle of the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n and transmits it to the parking lot management device 100 (S300). The vehicle ID acquisition unit 120 acquires a vehicle ID for identifying the vehicle of the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n (S120-n). For example, when a vehicle number is used as the “vehicle ID”, the vehicle ID can be acquired if the entrance area device 300 includes a camera and a vehicle number identification function. However, the “vehicle ID” does not have to be limited to the car number, and the user's telephone number or mail address may be used. In the case of the user's telephone number, for example, a telephone number may be input to the entrance area device 300, and the input telephone number may be transmitted to the parking lot management device 100 as “vehicle ID” (S300). In the case of the user's mail address, for example, the mail address may be sent from the user terminal 900 to the entrance area device 300 (S300). The vehicle registration unit 130 records the entry time of the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n and the vehicle ID in the recording unit 190 in association with each other (S130-n).

次に車室指示部１４０の処理について説明する。まず、すべての車室が同じ広さであり、分類されていない場合を説明する。この場合、車室指示部１４０は、自動運転車２００−ｎに駐車する車室を選定し（Ｓ１４０−ｎ）、車室情報を送信する（Ｓ１４１−ｎ）。自動運転車２００−ｎは、指定された車室への移動を開始する（Ｓ２４１−ｎ）。この処理では自動運転車２００−ｎの大きさを考慮しないで、すべての自動運転車に対して同じ広さの車室を選定することになる。ただし、自動運転車の駐車ではドアを開くスペースを考慮する必要がないので、通常の車よりも高密度に駐車できる。車室の選定方法は、例えば、出場エリアに近い車室から順番に選定すればよい。平均的には、先に入場した自動運転車ほど先に出場する可能性が高いので、早く出場する可能性が高い自動運転車ほど出場エリアに近い車室に駐車でき、出場時の待ち時間を短くできる。   Next, the process of the passenger compartment instruction unit 140 will be described. First, a case where all the cabins are the same size and are not classified will be described. In this case, the vehicle compartment instructing unit 140 selects a vehicle compartment to be parked in the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n (S140-n) and transmits vehicle compartment information (S141-n). The autonomous driving vehicle 200-n starts moving to the designated passenger compartment (S241-n). In this process, the cabin of the same size is selected for all the autonomous driving vehicles without considering the size of the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n. However, in self-driving car parking, it is not necessary to consider the space to open the door, so parking can be performed at a higher density than in a normal car. For example, the vehicle compartment may be selected in order from the vehicle compartment close to the entry area. On average, the more autonomous cars that enter earlier, the more likely it is to enter earlier, so the more autonomous cars that are more likely to enter earlier, the more parking is possible in the vehicle compartment closer to the entry area, and the waiting time when entering Can be shortened.

次に、自動運転車２００−ｎの大きさを考慮する場合を示す。まず、複数種類の広さの車室を用意しておき、それぞれの広さごとに対応する自動運転車の大きさを決め、車室ごとに駐車できる自動運転車の大きさを記録部１９０に記録しておく。自動運転車２００−ｎの大きさを知る方法としては、いくつかの方法がある。例えば「車両ＩＤ」として車番を用いる場合は、車番から外形寸法の最大値が判定できるので、車室指示部１４０は車番に基づいて車室を選定すればよい（Ｓ１４０−ｎ）。その他の例としては、入場エリアに車両計測装置４００を備える方法もある。この場合は、車両計測装置４００が自動運転車の外形寸法を計測し、駐車場管理装置１００に送信する（Ｓ４００）。駐車場管理装置１００は外形寸法の情報を取得する（Ｓ１４９−ｎ）。そして、車室指示部１４０は外形寸法に基づいて車室を選定すればよい（Ｓ１４０−ｎ）。車両計測装置４００を用いた場合は車両の外側に付けられた付属物も認識できるので、入場エリアで人が、付属物がないことを確認する必要がない。このように何種類かの広さの車室を用意しておき、車室指示部１４０が自動運転車の大きさを示す何らかの情報に基づいて車室を選定すれば、より効率的に駐車場を利用できる。   Next, a case where the size of the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n is considered will be shown. First, a plurality of types of vehicle compartments are prepared, the size of the autonomous vehicle corresponding to each size is determined, and the size of the autonomous vehicle that can be parked for each vehicle compartment is stored in the recording unit 190. Record it. There are several methods for knowing the size of the autonomous vehicle 200-n. For example, when the vehicle number is used as the “vehicle ID”, the maximum value of the outer dimension can be determined from the vehicle number, and therefore the vehicle compartment instruction unit 140 may select the vehicle compartment based on the vehicle number (S140-n). As another example, there is a method of providing the vehicle measurement device 400 in the entrance area. In this case, the vehicle measuring device 400 measures the outer dimensions of the autonomous driving vehicle and transmits the measured dimensions to the parking lot management device 100 (S400). The parking lot management apparatus 100 acquires information on the external dimensions (S149-n). Then, the passenger compartment instruction unit 140 may select a passenger compartment based on the outer dimensions (S140-n). When the vehicle measuring device 400 is used, since an accessory attached to the outside of the vehicle can be recognized, it is not necessary for a person to confirm that there is no accessory in the entrance area. In this way, if several types of vehicle compartments are prepared and the vehicle compartment instruction unit 140 selects the vehicle compartment based on some information indicating the size of the autonomous driving vehicle, the parking lot is more efficiently Can be used.

「車室情報」とは、車室に関連する情報だけでもよいし、車路の情報を含めてもよい。車室に関連する情報とは、車室の絶対的な位置情報でも、入場エリアとの相対的な位置情報でもよい。また、車室の番号などの車室を識別する車室ＩＤを含んでいてもよい。車室ＩＤは、自動運転車２００−ｎに備え付けられているカメラで認識できるもの（数字、バーコードなど）で車室に示しておけばよい。車路の情報とは、経路の情報でもよいし、走行可能な範囲を示す情報でもよい。車路の情報が走行可能な範囲を示す情報の場合は、経路は自動運転車２００−ｎが決めればよい。また、車路が一方通行で分岐が無い場合は、自動運転車は容易に車室に到着できるので、車路の情報を省略してもよい。   “Vehicle information” may include only information relating to the vehicle compartment, or may include information on the vehicle lane. The information related to the passenger compartment may be absolute position information of the passenger compartment or position information relative to the entrance area. Further, the vehicle compartment ID such as the vehicle compartment number for identifying the vehicle compartment may be included. The vehicle compartment ID may be shown in the vehicle compartment by a camera (numerals, barcode, etc.) that can be recognized by the camera provided in the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n. The road information may be route information or information indicating a possible travel range. In the case where the road information is information indicating a travelable range, the route may be determined by the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n. In addition, when the road is one-way and there is no branch, the autonomous driving vehicle can easily reach the passenger compartment, and thus the information on the road may be omitted.

自動運転車２００−ｎは、位置情報を駐車場管理装置１００に定期的に送信しながら移動する（Ｓ２１０−ｎ）。「定期的」とは、例えば１秒ごとや５秒ごとなどであり、適宜定めればよい。自動運転車通信部１１０は、自動運転車２００−ｎの位置情報を受信する（Ｓ１１０−ｎ）。そして、車室への移動が終了すると、自動運転車２００−ｎは移動終了を示す情報を駐車場管理装置１００に送信し（Ｓ２４２−ｎ）、駐車場管理装置１００は移動終了を示す情報を受信する（Ｓ１４２−ｎ）。また、駐車場内に、車室監視装置６００を備えておいてもよい。車室監視装置６００は、例えば、すべての車室を監視できるように複数のカメラを配置し、画像処理によって車室ごとに自動運転車が駐車しているか否かを判断してもよいし、赤外線センサなどの個別のセンサをすべての車室に配置することで車室ごとに自動運転車が駐車しているか否かを判断してもよい。車室監視装置６００も備えている場合は、車室監視装置６００が、車室の状態（例えば、自動運転車が無い状態、駐車した状態、状態の変化）の情報である車室情報を駐車場管理装置１００に送信し（Ｓ６１０）、駐車場管理装置１００が車室情報を取得する（Ｓ１０１）。   The autonomous driving vehicle 200-n moves while periodically transmitting position information to the parking lot management apparatus 100 (S210-n). “Periodic” is, for example, every 1 second or every 5 seconds, and may be determined as appropriate. The autonomous driving vehicle communication unit 110 receives position information of the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n (S110-n). When the movement to the passenger compartment ends, the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n transmits information indicating the end of movement to the parking lot management apparatus 100 (S242-n), and the parking lot management apparatus 100 transmits the information indicating the end of movement. Receive (S142-n). In addition, a vehicle compartment monitoring device 600 may be provided in the parking lot. The vehicle compartment monitoring device 600 may, for example, arrange a plurality of cameras so that all vehicle compartments can be monitored, and determine whether or not an autonomous driving vehicle is parked for each vehicle compartment by image processing. It may be determined whether or not an autonomous driving vehicle is parked for each vehicle compartment by arranging individual sensors such as infrared sensors in all vehicle compartments. If the vehicle compartment monitoring device 600 is also provided, the vehicle compartment monitoring device 600 stores vehicle compartment information that is information on the state of the vehicle compartment (for example, the state of no autonomous driving, the state of parking, or the change in state). It transmits to the parking lot management apparatus 100 (S610), and the parking lot management apparatus 100 acquires vehicle compartment information (S101).

図４に、自動運転車を出場させるときの処理フローの例を示す。出場エリア装置７００が、車両ＩＤを指定して出場開始の指示を駐車場管理装置１００に送信する（Ｓ７５５−ｎ）。例えば、ユーザは駐車券を出場エリア装置７００に入れ、駐車料金を支払うことで、出場エリア装置７００が出場開始の指示を送信すればよい。出場指示部１５０は、車両ＩＤを指定した出場の指示を取得すると（Ｓ１５５−ｎ）、当該車両ＩＤの自動運転車２００−ｎに出場エリアへ移動する出場指示を行う（Ｓ１５１−ｎ）。自動運転車２００−ｎは出場指示を受信すると、移動を開始する（Ｓ２５１−ｎ）。なお、出場指示部１５０は、自動運転車２００−ｎが駐車していた車室の位置と出場中の自動運転車の数に基づいて、予測される待ち時間または何台目の出場かを求め、出場エリア装置７００に待ち時間の予測値または何台目の出場かを出場情報として送信してもよい。この場合は、出場エリア装置７００は、待ち時間の予測値または何台目の出場かを示す情報を受信し、表示する（Ｓ７５６−ｎ）。自動運転車２００−ｎは、位置情報を駐車場管理装置１００に定期的に送信しながら移動する（Ｓ２１０−ｎ）。そして、出場エリアへの移動が終了すると、移動終了の情報を駐車場管理装置１００に送信する（Ｓ２５２−ｎ）。駐車場管理装置１００は、移動終了の情報を受信する（Ｓ１５２−ｎ）。   FIG. 4 shows an example of a processing flow when an autonomous driving vehicle is entered. The participation area device 700 designates the vehicle ID and transmits an instruction to start participation to the parking lot management device 100 (S755-n). For example, the user may enter a parking ticket into the participation area device 700 and pay a parking fee so that the participation area device 700 transmits an instruction to start participation. When the participation instruction unit 150 obtains an entry instruction specifying a vehicle ID (S155-n), the participation instruction unit 150 instructs the automatic driving vehicle 200-n of the vehicle ID to move to the participation area (S151-n). When the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n receives the participation instruction, it starts to move (S251-n). The participation instructing unit 150 obtains the predicted waiting time or the number of vehicles to participate based on the position of the compartment in which the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n is parked and the number of autonomous driving vehicles participating. Alternatively, the predicted waiting time value or the number of cars to be entered may be transmitted to the participation area device 700 as participation information. In this case, the participation area device 700 receives and displays the predicted value of the waiting time or information indicating what number of participation (S756-n). The autonomous driving vehicle 200-n moves while periodically transmitting position information to the parking lot management apparatus 100 (S210-n). When the movement to the participation area is completed, information on the movement completion is transmitted to the parking lot management apparatus 100 (S252-n). The parking lot management apparatus 100 receives the movement end information (S152-n).

車室指示部１４０は、さらに、いずれかの車室に駐車している自動運転車に対して、その車室よりも出場エリアに近い別の車室への移動の指示も行う。図５に、車室を移動する場合の処理フローの例を示す。自動運転車２００−ｎが駐車している車室よりも出場エリアに近い車室に自動運転車２００−ｋ（ただし、ｋはｎ以外の１以上Ｎ以下の整数）が駐車していたとする。そして、駐車場管理装置１００が、自動運転車２００−ｋに対して別の車室への移動の指示（Ｓ１４３−ｋ）または出場の指示（Ｓ１５１−ｋ）を送信し、自動運転車２００−ｋが移動を開始したとする。そうすると、自動運転車２００−ｎが駐車している車室よりも出場エリアに近い車室に空きができる。そこで、車室指示部１４０は、出場エリアに近い車室への移動の指示を自動運転車２００−ｎに送信する（Ｓ１４３−ｎ）。自動運転車２００−ｎは移動の指示を受信すると、移動を開始する（Ｓ２４３−ｎ）。自動運転車２００−ｎは、位置情報を駐車場管理装置１００に定期的に送信しながら移動する（Ｓ２１０−ｎ）。自動運転車通信部１１０は、自動運転車２００−ｎの位置情報を受信する（Ｓ１１０−ｎ）。そして、車室への移動が終了すると、自動運転車２００−ｎは移動終了を示す情報を駐車場管理装置１００に送信し（Ｓ２４４−ｎ）、駐車場管理装置１００は移動終了を示す情報を受信する（Ｓ１４４−ｎ）。   The vehicle compartment instructing unit 140 also instructs a self-driving vehicle parked in any vehicle compartment to move to another vehicle compartment closer to the entry area than the vehicle compartment. FIG. 5 shows an example of a processing flow when moving in the passenger compartment. It is assumed that the autonomous driving vehicle 200-k (where k is an integer of 1 to N other than n) is parked in the passenger compartment closer to the entry area than the passenger compartment in which the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n is parked. And the parking lot management apparatus 100 transmits the instruction | indication of movement to another compartment (S143-k) or the instruction | indication of participation (S151-k) with respect to the self-driving car 200-k, and the self-driving car 200-k. Let k start moving. Then, a vacant space is created in the passenger compartment closer to the participation area than the passenger compartment in which the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n is parked. Therefore, the passenger compartment instruction unit 140 transmits an instruction to move to the passenger compartment close to the participation area to the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n (S143-n). When the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n receives the movement instruction, the autonomous driving car 200-n starts moving (S243-n). The autonomous driving vehicle 200-n moves while periodically transmitting position information to the parking lot management apparatus 100 (S210-n). The autonomous driving vehicle communication unit 110 receives position information of the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n (S110-n). When the movement to the passenger compartment ends, the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n transmits information indicating the end of movement to the parking lot management apparatus 100 (S244-n), and the parking lot management apparatus 100 transmits the information indicating the end of movement. Receive (S144-n).

なお、少しでも出場エリアに近い車室が空いただけで自動運転車２００−ｎを移動させると、車室間の移動が頻繁に発生し駐車場内で渋滞が生じる可能性がある。そこで、あらかじめ車室を、出場エリアまでの車路に沿った距離に基づいて複数のグループに分けておいてもよい。そして、車室指示部１４０は、駐車している車室が属するグループよりも出場エリアに近いグループの車室への移動の指示を行うことにしてもよい。   In addition, if the self-driving car 200-n is moved only by vacating the passenger compartment close to the entry area as much as possible, there is a possibility that traffic between the passenger compartments frequently occurs and traffic congestion occurs in the parking lot. Therefore, the vehicle compartments may be divided into a plurality of groups based on the distance along the roadway to the participation area. The vehicle compartment instruction unit 140 may instruct movement to a vehicle compartment of a group closer to the participation area than the group to which the parked vehicle compartment belongs.

なお、自動運転車の移動では、出場指示を早く受けた自動運転車、もしくは出場指示を受けた自動運転車の移動を優先させればよい。例えば、駐車場内の車路で２台の自動運転車が遭遇した場合には、出場指示を遅く受けた自動運転車（または車室を移動している自動運転車）を停止させ、出場指示を早く受けた自動運転車を移動させればよい。このような処理は、自動運転車同士の通信によって優先車を判断させてもよいし、駐車場管理装置１００が、受信している２台の自動運転車の位置情報に基づいて出場指示を遅く受けた自動運転車（または車室を移動している自動運転車）を一時的に停止させてもよい。もしくは、所定数以上に出場指示を受けた自動運転車が駐車場内にあるときには、車室の移動の指示を中止するようにしてもよい。「所定数」は、駐車場の広さに応じて渋滞が起きないように適宜定めればよい。このように、出場指示を早く受けた自動運転車、もしくは出場指示を受けた自動運転車の移動を優先すれば、ユーザの待ち時間を短くできる。   In the movement of the automatic driving vehicle, priority may be given to the movement of the automatic driving vehicle that received the participation instruction early or the movement of the automatic driving vehicle that received the participation instruction. For example, if two self-driving cars are encountered on the roadway in the parking lot, stop the automatic driving car (or the self-driving car moving in the passenger compartment) that received the entry instruction lately, and issue the entry instruction. It is only necessary to move the self-driving car received earlier. Such processing may cause the priority vehicle to be determined by communication between the autonomous driving vehicles, or the parking lot management device 100 delays the entry instruction based on the received positional information of the two autonomous driving vehicles. The received automatic driving vehicle (or an automatic driving vehicle moving in the passenger compartment) may be temporarily stopped. Alternatively, when there is an autonomous driving vehicle that has received a participation instruction more than a predetermined number in the parking lot, the instruction to move the passenger compartment may be stopped. The “predetermined number” may be determined as appropriate so as not to cause a traffic jam according to the size of the parking lot. Thus, if priority is given to the movement of the automatic driving vehicle that has received the participation instruction early or the automatic driving vehicle that has received the participation instruction, the waiting time of the user can be shortened.

駐車場管理装置１００によれば、車室指示部１４０が、いずれかの車室に駐車している自動運転車２００−ｎに対して、その車室よりも出場エリアに近い別の車室への移動の指示も行う。出場エリアに近い別の車室に移動した自動運転車２００−ｎは、出場までの時間が短くなる車室に移動することになるので、ユーザにとっては出場時の待ち時間を短縮できる。このように、駐車場管理装置１００は、無人で移動できる自動運転車の特徴を利用し、駐車場内で車室を変更しているので、出場時の待ち時間を短縮できる。したがって、ユーザの利便性を向上できる。   According to the parking lot management apparatus 100, the vehicle compartment instructing unit 140 moves to another vehicle compartment that is closer to the entry area than the vehicle compartment for the autonomous driving vehicle 200-n parked in any vehicle compartment. Also instruct to move. Since the self-driving car 200-n that has moved to another compartment close to the entry area will move to the compartment where the time until entry will be shortened, the waiting time for entry can be shortened for the user. Thus, since the parking lot management apparatus 100 uses the feature of the autonomous driving vehicle that can move unattended and changes the passenger compartment in the parking lot, the waiting time at the time of entry can be shortened. Therefore, user convenience can be improved.

［変形例１］
実施例１では、入場時刻が早い自動運転車ほど出場時刻も早い確率が高いことだけに注目した処理を示したが、以下の変形例ではユーザごとの駐車時間の違いも考慮した例を示す。変形例１の駐車場管理装置１００は、出場時刻予測部１６０と駐車時間保存部１７０も備える。駐車時間保存部１７０は、出場時に、車両ＩＤと駐車時間とを対応付けて記録部１９０に記録する（Ｓ１７０−ｎ，図４参照）。出場時刻予測部１６０は、車両ＩＤ取得部１２０が取得した車両ＩＤに対応付けられた過去の駐車時間を記録部１９０から取得し、過去の駐車時間に基づいて出場時刻を予測する（Ｓ１６０−ｎ，図２参照）。例えば、過去の駐車時間とデフォルトの駐車時間とに重み付けをした計算式を定めておき、その計算式に従って出場時刻を計算すればよい。そのように計算すれば、過去の情報がない自動運転車に対してはデフォルトの駐車時間を用いて出場時刻を予測し、過去の情報がある自動運転車に対しては過去の駐車時間も考慮した出場時刻の予測ができる。 [Modification 1]
In the first embodiment, the processing focused on the fact that the probability of the earlier entry time is higher as the autonomous driving vehicle is earlier is shown. However, the following modified example shows an example in consideration of the difference in parking time for each user. The parking lot management apparatus 100 according to the first modification also includes an entry time prediction unit 160 and a parking time storage unit 170. The parking time storage unit 170 records the vehicle ID and the parking time in the recording unit 190 in association with each other when participating (S170-n, see FIG. 4). The participation time prediction unit 160 acquires the past parking time associated with the vehicle ID acquired by the vehicle ID acquisition unit 120 from the recording unit 190, and predicts the participation time based on the past parking time (S160-n). , See FIG. For example, a calculation formula that weights the past parking time and the default parking time is determined, and the entry time may be calculated according to the calculation formula. If calculated in such a way, the default parking time is used to predict the entry time for autonomous vehicles without past information, and the past parking time is also considered for autonomous vehicles with past information. You can predict the participation time.

そして、車両登録部１３０は、入場時刻だけでなく出場予測時刻も車両ＩＤに対応付けて記録部に記録する（Ｓ１３０−ｎ）。車室指示部１４０は、出場予測時刻が早い自動運転車を優先して出場エリアに近い車室を指示する（Ｓ１４０−ｎ）。「出場予測時刻が早い自動運転車を優先」とは、入場したときだけではなく、自動運転車を出場エリアに近い別の車室に移動させる処理でも同様である。例えば、車室に空きが出たときに、その車室よりも出場エリアに遠い位置にある自動運転車の中で最も出場予測時刻が早い自動運転車を、その車室に移動させればよい。変形例１によれば、ユーザごとの駐車時間の違いも考慮できるので、出場時の待ち時間をさらに短くできる。   Then, the vehicle registration unit 130 records not only the entry time but also the predicted entry time in the recording unit in association with the vehicle ID (S130-n). The vehicle compartment instructing unit 140 gives priority to an automatic driving vehicle with a predicted participation time and instructs a vehicle compartment close to the participation area (S140-n). “Priority is given to the self-driving car with the expected predicted time of entry” not only when entering, but also in the process of moving the self-driving car to another cabin near the participation area. For example, when there is a vacancy in the passenger compartment, an autonomous driving vehicle with the earliest expected entry time among the autonomous driving vehicles located farther in the participation area than the passenger compartment may be moved to the passenger compartment. . According to the modification 1, since the difference in the parking time for every user can also be considered, the waiting time at the time of participation can be further shortened.

［変形例２］
変形例２の駐車場管理装置１００は、出場時刻予測部１６０と利用者情報取得部１８０も備える。この場合、入場エリア装置３００は、利用者情報取得部１８０に必要なユーザに関する情報（利用者情報）を取得する（Ｓ３１０，図２参照）。「利用者情報」とは、自動運転車の利用者の人数、性別などである。利用者情報取得部１８０は、入場エリア装置３００から利用者情報を取得する（Ｓ１８０−ｎ）。出場時刻予測部１６０は、少なくとも利用者の人数と性別を用いて出場時刻を予測する（Ｓ１６０−ｎ）。具体的には、１人のユーザよりも家族のユーザの方が駐車時間は長くなる傾向にある。また、男性よりも女性の方が、駐車時間が長くなる傾向にある。そこで、デフォルトの駐車時間を、利用者の人数や性別で補正する計算式を定めておき、その計算式に従って出場時刻を予測すればよい。なお、変形例１と変形例２は組み合わせてもよい。その場合は、出場時刻予測部１６０は、例えば、過去の駐車時間とデフォルトの駐車時間とに重み付けをした計算式と、その計算の結果に対する利用者情報に基づく補正式を定めておけばよい。 [Modification 2]
The parking lot management device 100 according to the second modification also includes an entry time prediction unit 160 and a user information acquisition unit 180. In this case, the entrance area device 300 acquires information (user information) related to a user necessary for the user information acquisition unit 180 (S310, see FIG. 2). “User information” refers to the number of users of the autonomous driving vehicle, gender, and the like. The user information acquisition unit 180 acquires user information from the entrance area device 300 (S180-n). The participation time prediction unit 160 predicts the participation time using at least the number of users and gender (S160-n). Specifically, parking time tends to be longer for family users than for one user. Moreover, the parking time tends to be longer for women than for men. Therefore, a calculation formula for correcting the default parking time by the number of users and gender is determined, and the entry time may be predicted according to the calculation formula. Note that Modification 1 and Modification 2 may be combined. In that case, the participation time prediction unit 160 may determine, for example, a calculation formula that weights the past parking time and the default parking time, and a correction formula based on the user information for the calculation result.

そして、車両登録部１３０は、入場時刻だけでなく出場予測時刻も車両ＩＤに対応付けて記録部に記録する（Ｓ１３０−ｎ）。車室指示部１４０は、出場予測時刻が早い自動運転車を優先して出場エリアに近い車室を指示する（Ｓ１４０−ｎ）。「出場予測時刻が早い自動運転車を優先」については、変形例１と同じである。変形例２によれば、ユーザごとの駐車時間の違いも考慮できるので、出場時の待ち時間をさらに短くできる。   Then, the vehicle registration unit 130 records not only the entry time but also the predicted entry time in the recording unit in association with the vehicle ID (S130-n). The vehicle compartment instructing unit 140 gives priority to an automatic driving vehicle with a predicted participation time and instructs a vehicle compartment close to the participation area (S140-n). “Priority is given to the self-driving car with the expected predicted time of entry” is the same as in the first modification. According to the modification 2, since the difference in the parking time for every user can also be considered, the waiting time at the time of participation can be further shortened.

［変形例３］
駐車場管理装置１００は、変形例１，２に加えてさらに、出場予定時刻取得部１６５も備えてもよい。図６に、出場予定時刻を受信した場合の処理フローの例を示す。この場合は、ユーザがユーザ端末９００から駐車場管理装置１００に車両ＩＤと対応付けした出場予定時刻を送信する（Ｓ９０１−ｎ）。例えば、店舗での用件が終了した時点で５分後には駐車場の出場エリアに到着する情報を送信してもよいし、入場時に出場予定時刻を送信してもよい。出場予定時刻取得部１６５は、車両ＩＤと対応付けされた出場予定時刻を取得し（Ｓ１６５−ｎ）、その車両ＩＤと対応付けられた出場予測時刻を、取得した出場予定時刻にして記録部１９０に記録する（Ｓ１６６−ｎ）。ステップＳ１４３−ｎからＳ１４４−ｎまでの処理は、図５と同じである。 [Modification 3]
The parking lot management apparatus 100 may further include a scheduled participation time acquisition unit 165 in addition to the first and second modifications. FIG. 6 shows an example of the processing flow when the scheduled participation time is received. In this case, the user transmits the scheduled participation time associated with the vehicle ID from the user terminal 900 to the parking lot management apparatus 100 (S901-n). For example, information arriving at a parking area may be transmitted five minutes after the end of the business at the store, or the scheduled time of participation may be transmitted when entering. The scheduled participation time acquisition unit 165 acquires the scheduled participation time associated with the vehicle ID (S165-n), and sets the predicted participation time associated with the vehicle ID as the acquired scheduled participation time. (S166-n). The processing from step S143-n to S144-n is the same as in FIG.

変形例３の駐車場管理装置であれば、ユーザが自身の出場予定時刻を送信しなければ、変形例１，２に示した方法で出場予測時刻を定めて自動運転車を移動させ、ユーザ自身が出場予定時刻を送信したときはユーザの意思を尊重して自動運転車を移動させることができる。   If it is the parking lot management apparatus of the modified example 3, if the user does not transmit his / her scheduled participation time, the predicted driving time is determined by the method shown in the modified examples 1 and 2, and the autonomous driving vehicle is moved. Can transmit the autonomous driving vehicle with respect to the user's intention when the scheduled participation time is transmitted.

The processing functions are realized on the computer by executing the program on the computer.

この処理内容を記述したプログラムは、コンピュータで読み取り可能な記録媒体に記録しておくことができる。コンピュータで読み取り可能な記録媒体としては、例えば、磁気記録装置、光ディスク、光磁気記録媒体、半導体メモリ等どのようなものでもよい。   The program describing the processing contents can be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium. As the computer-readable recording medium, for example, any recording medium such as a magnetic recording device, an optical disk, a magneto-optical recording medium, and a semiconductor memory may be used.

また、このプログラムの流通は、例えば、そのプログラムを記録したＤＶＤ、ＣＤ−ＲＯＭ等の可搬型記録媒体を販売、譲渡、貸与等することによって行う。さらに、このプログラムをサーバコンピュータの記憶装置に格納しておき、ネットワークを介して、サーバコンピュータから他のコンピュータにそのプログラムを転送することにより、このプログラムを流通させる構成としてもよい。   The program is distributed by selling, transferring, or lending a portable recording medium such as a DVD or CD-ROM in which the program is recorded. Furthermore, the program may be distributed by storing the program in a storage device of the server computer and transferring the program from the server computer to another computer via a network.

このようなプログラムを実行するコンピュータは、例えば、まず、可搬型記録媒体に記録されたプログラムもしくはサーバコンピュータから転送されたプログラムを、一旦、自己の記憶装置に格納する。そして、処理の実行時、このコンピュータは、自己の記録媒体に格納されたプログラムを読み取り、読み取ったプログラムに従った処理を実行する。また、このプログラムの別の実行形態として、コンピュータが可搬型記録媒体から直接プログラムを読み取り、そのプログラムに従った処理を実行することとしてもよく、さらに、このコンピュータにサーバコンピュータからプログラムが転送されるたびに、逐次、受け取ったプログラムに従った処理を実行することとしてもよい。また、サーバコンピュータから、このコンピュータへのプログラムの転送は行わず、その実行指示と結果取得のみによって処理機能を実現する、いわゆるＡＳＰ（Application Service Provider）型のサービスによって、上述の処理を実行する構成としてもよい。なお、本形態におけるプログラムには、電子計算機による処理の用に供する情報であってプログラムに準ずるもの（コンピュータに対する直接の指令ではないがコンピュータの処理を規定する性質を有するデータ等）を含むものとする。   A computer that executes such a program first stores, for example, a program recorded on a portable recording medium or a program transferred from a server computer in its own storage device.

As another execution form of the program, the computer may directly read the program from a portable recording medium and execute processing according to the program, and the program is transferred from the server computer to the computer. Each time, the processing according to the received program may be executed sequentially. Also, the program is not transferred from the server computer to the computer, and the above-described processing is executed by a so-called ASP (Application Service Provider) type service that realizes the processing function only by the execution instruction and result acquisition. It is good. Note that the program in this embodiment includes information that is used for processing by an electronic computer and that conforms to the program (data that is not a direct command to the computer but has a property that defines the processing of the computer).

また、この形態では、コンピュータ上で所定のプログラムを実行させることにより、本装置を構成することとしたが、これらの処理内容の少なくとも一部をハードウェア的に実現することとしてもよい。   In this embodiment, the present apparatus is configured by executing a predetermined program on a computer. However, at least a part of these processing contents may be realized by hardware.
