第1の実施形態に係る管理システムについて、図面を用いて説明する。図1は、第1の実施形態に係る管理システムの概要を示す図である。図1に示す管理システムは、車両システム10、運転者特徴DB20、運転者照合システム30、照合DB40を備える。
車両システム10は、自動車などの車両に設けられ、車両に設置された各種センサのセンサデータに基づき、運転者の顔情報と運転特徴を生成する。生成された顔情報、運転特徴は、運転者照合システム30において車両の運転者が当該車両の予約者であるか確認するために利用される。なお、車両としては、自動車(自動四輪車)の他、自動二輪車(三輪含む)や自転車等を含んでもよい。
図4は、運転者特徴DB20に記憶される情報の例を示す図である。運転者特徴DB20は、各車両の車両システム10から送信された運転者特徴201を記憶する。運転者特徴DB20には、過去に各車両が送信した、顔情報、運転特徴を含む運転者特徴201が記憶される。運転者特徴DB20は、例えば、通信機能を有する記憶装置である。運転者特徴DB20は、コンピュータで構成されてもよい。なお、運転者特徴DB20は、照合DB40と統合されてもよい。
以下、運転者照合システム30について図面を用いて説明する。図6は、第1の実施形態に係る運転者照合システム30の構成の例を示すブロック図である。図6に示す運転者照合システム30は、識別処理部301、抽出処理部302、出力処理部303、通信部(図示せず)を備える。運転者照合システム30は、例えば、ソフトウエアによって各種機能を実行するコンピュータである。なお、運転者照合システム30は、クラウドコンピューティングにより実現されてもよい。
識別処理部301は、車両システム10から送信された、車両における運転者の顔情報を照合DB40に記憶された顔情報と照合する。図7は、照合DB40に記憶される情報の例である。照合DB40は、顔情報401、予約情報402を記憶する。顔情報401は、予め登録された運転者の顔情報である。顔情報は、顔画像又は顔特徴である。予約情報402は、車両を運転することが予定されている予約者に関する情報である。なお、レンタカー等の場合、予約者は、予約する際に登録された、車両の利用者である。また、社用車のように、事業者が管理する車両の場合、予約者は、事業者によって予め定められた運転者である。この場合、予約情報は、例えば事業者により設定されたスケジュール情報などに基づいて作成されてもよい(明示の予約操作を伴わなくてもよい)。予約情報402は、例えば、予約者氏名、予約車両の車両ID、車両の貸出日時などを含む。予約情報402には、予約者と車両に同乗し、予約者に代わり運転する可能性がある人物の情報を、運転者を照合する対象として含めてもよい。運転する可能性がある人物は、例えば、予約者の家族、友人、同僚などである。
運転者照合システム30は、車両システム10から車両における運転者の運転に関する運転特徴を受付ける。抽出処理部302は、運転者の運転特徴を取得し、取得した運転者の運転特徴を、運転者特徴DB20の運転者特徴201に含まれる過去の運転特徴と照合する。過去の運転特徴は、人特徴、設定特徴、走行特徴の少なくとも1つを含む。抽出処理部302は、過去の運転者の運転特徴の中から、取得した運転特徴と同一又は類似した運転者である運転者候補を抽出する。
識別処理部301で運転者の顔認証が失敗すると、出力処理部303は、顔認証失敗のアラートを通知する。出力処理部303は、例えば、車両の管理者(レンタカー業者、社用車等の運用担当者)へ通知する。なお、通知先は、これらに限られず、車両の運転者本人、予約者に通知してもよい。一方、識別処理部301で運転者の顔認証が成功すると、出力処理部303は、顔認証によって特定された運転者の情報を照合DB40に記憶された予約情報と比較する。
車両において、認証媒体を読み取って運転者の識別情報を取得してもよい。認証媒体は、ICカードの他、携帯端末であってもよい。なお、識別処理部301は、顔認証に代えて、又は、顔認証と組み合わせて、認証媒体から取得した識別情報に基づいて運転者を特定してもよい。
第1の実施形態に係る運転者照合システム30の動作について図面を用いて説明する。図9は、第1の実施形態に係る運転者照合システム30の動作の例を示すフローチャートである。以下の運転者照合システム30の動作は、車両における運転者の顔認証が失敗した後に運転者の運転特徴を用いる例である。
図12は、第1の実施形態に係る運転者照合システム30の動作の変形例を示すフローチャートである。運転者照合システム30の動作の変形例は、運転者の顔認証の成否によらず運転特徴を用いる点で、運転者の顔認証が成功した場合は、運転特徴を用いない図9に示す運転者照合システム30の動作と相違する。運転者照合システム30の動作の変形例は、車両の運転者の顔認証、及び、運転特徴に基づく運転者候補の抽出を実施する。そして顔認証結果と抽出結果が異なる運転者を示す場合は顔認証結果が優先される。
次に、変形例の車両システム10の動作について説明する。運転者照合システム30は、車両システム10から送信された車両の運転者の顔情報を受信する。運転者照合システム30の識別処理部301は、車両の運転者の顔情報を取得し(ステップS301)、取得した運転者の顔情報で顔認証を実施する(ステップS302)。具体的には、識別処理部301は、取得した運転者の顔情報を照合DB40に記憶された予め登録された顔情報401と照合し、車両の運転者を特定する。識別処理部301は、認証結果を出力処理部303に送る。
第1の実施形態に係る運転者照合システム30によれば、車両の運転者の候補を適切に抽出できる。その理由は、抽出処理部302が、車両システム10から車両を運転する運転者の運転特徴を取得し、取得した運転特徴を、過去の運転特徴と照合して運転者候補を抽出するからである。
第2の実施形態に係る管理システムについて、図面を用いて説明する。図14は、第2の実施形態に係る管理システムの概要を示す図である。第2の実施形態の説明において、第1の実施形態と同一の構成は、同一の符号を付して詳細な説明は省略する。
図15は、第2の実施形態に係る車両システム11の構成の例を示すブロック図である。図15の車両システム11は、車両センサ110とセンサデータ管理部130、通信部(図示せず)を備える。車両システム11の車両センサ110の構成は、第1の実施形態に係る車両システム10の車両センサ110と同様である。車両センサ110で収集された各種センサデータは、センサデータ管理部130に送られる。
図17は、第2の実施形態に係る運転者特徴システム21の構成の例を示すブロック図である。運転者特徴システム21は、例えば、ソフトウエアによって各種機能を実行するコンピュータである。なお、運転者特徴システム21は、クラウドコンピューティングにより実現されてもよい。図17の運転者特徴システム21は、運転者特徴生成部120と運転者特徴DB20を備える。運転者特徴システム21の運転者特徴生成部120は、第1の実施形態の車両システム10の運転者特徴生成部120と同様の構成であるため詳細な説明を省略する。運転者特徴生成部120で生成された、車両ごとの運転者の顔情報、運転者の運動特徴は、運転者特徴DB20に送られ、記憶される。運転者特徴システム21は、運転者特徴生成部120で生成された、顔特徴、運転特徴を運転者照合システム30に送信する。
第2の実施形態に係る運転者特徴システム21の動作について図面を用いて説明する。図18は、第2の実施形態に係る運転者特徴システム21の動作の例を示すフローチャートである。以下、運転者特徴システム21が、車両を運転する運転者の顔情報、運転特徴を生成し、生成した顔特徴、運転特徴を運転者照合システム30に送信する例について説明する。
第2の実施形態の車両システム11によれば、運転者特徴生成部120の構成を持たないことで、車両における車両システム11のシステム構成を簡略化できる、あるいは、システムの負荷を低くすることができる。
第3の実施形態に係る運転者照合システムについて、図面を用いて説明する。第3の実施形態に係る運転者照合システムは、第1の実施形態に係る運転者照合システム30と同様にネットワーク50を介して車両システム10又は運転者特徴DB20と通信可能に接続される。運転者照合システム31は、照合DB40と通信可能に接続されてもよい。
第3の実施形態の運転者照合システム31によれば、車両の運転者の候補を適切に抽出できる。その理由は、運転者特徴取得部311が、車両システム10から車両を運転する運転者の運転特徴を取得し、抽出処理部312が取得した運転特徴を、過去の運転者の運転特徴と照合して過去の運転者から運転者候補を抽出するからである。
図21は、コンピュータのハードウエア構成の例を示す図である。運転者照合システム30、31は、プログラム(ソフトウエアプログラム,コンピュータプログラム)が図21に示すコンピュータ90のCPU91において実行されることにより実現される。車両システム10、11、運転者特徴システム21についても同様である。運転者照合システム30の機能は、プログラムを実行することにより実現される。また運転者照合システム30、31のいずれかの機能は、外部装置(図示せず)で構成され、ネットワークを介して外部装置から運転者照合システム30に提供されてもよい。運転者照合システム30、31の構成は、CPU(Central Processing Unit)91がROM(Read Only Memory)92、あるいは、記憶装置95からプログラム94を読み込み、読み込んだプログラム94を、CPU91、RAM(Random Access Memory)93を用いて実行することにより実現されてもよい。上述した実施形態を例に説明した本開示は、コンピュータプログラムを表すコードあるいはそのコンピュータプログラムを表すコードが格納されたコンピュータ読み取り可能な記憶媒体によって構成されると捉えることができる。コンピュータ読み取り可能な記憶媒体は、例えば記憶装置95、不図示の着脱可能な磁気ディスク媒体,光学ディスク媒体やメモリカードなどである。なお、各実施形態の構成は、集積回路による専用のハードウエアであってもよい。運転者照合システム30、31はクラウドコンピューティングにより実現されてもよい。
