Abstract

An information processing device according to the present invention comprises a first transmitting unit, a second transmitting unit, a route information acquisition unit, an appropriateness determination unit, and a presentation control unit. The first transmitting unit transmits, to a first external device that, when a desired condition of a user for a movement plan from a point of departure is input, presents proposed information including a recommended visit spot to which visit from the point of departure is recommended, a request for presentation of the desired condition and the proposed information. The second transmitting unit transmits, to a second external device that is different from the first external device, route search condition information based on the proposed information that is presented by the first external device in response to the request for presentation. The route information acquisition unit acquires route information pertaining to a movement route which has been retrieved by the second external device according to the route search condition information and which passes through the recommended visit spot. The appropriateness determination unit determines the appropriateness of the movement route on the basis of a comparison between the desired condition and the route information. The presentation control unit presents the movement route as a movement plan that is recommended to the user, when the movement route is determined to be appropriate.

Abstract

A distance measurement apparatus (10) is an apparatus that causes a light receiving unit (180) to detect pulsed-light, which is emitted from a light source (14) and reflected by a target object (30). The distance measurement apparatus (10) includes an estimation unit (121). The estimation unit (121) estimates a peak position of the pulsed-light by using a saturation waveform that is a reception light waveform which is generated by the light receiving unit (180) that receives the pulsed-light and in which a reception light signal is partially saturated. Here, the estimation unit (121) specifies a temporary peak position by using a plurality of data points including a start point of the saturation in the saturation waveform. Further, the estimation unit (121) specifies a correction parameter based on a saturation width of the saturation waveform. The estimation unit 121 estimates the peak position of the pulsed-light by correcting the temporary peak position by using the specified correction parameter.

Abstract

A storage unit 6 stores an elapsed time for each piece of identification information for identifying a communication contract. A communication unit 4 performs communication using the identification information. When a power source of a communication control terminal 1 is turned ON, a measurement unit 15 reads out, from the storage unit 6, the elapsed time corresponding to the identification information used for communication by the communication unit 4, and measures an elapsed time following the read-out elapsed time. A communication control unit 17 permits communication by the communication unit 4 in a case in which the elapsed time measured by the measurement unit 15 falls within a predetermined allowed time, and limits use of communication by the communication unit 4 in a case in which the elapsed time exceeds the allowed time.

Abstract

A measuring apparatus (10) is an apparatus that emits light through a transmissive member (20) and that detects reflected light from a target. The measuring apparatus (10) includes a light receiving element (18) and an attached-matter determination unit (121). The light receiving element (18) receives reflected light reflected by at least the transmissive member (20). The attached-matter determination unit (121) determines a type of attached matter adhering to the transmissive member (20). The attached-matter determination unit (121) determines whether or not the attached matter is moisture based on, for example, saturation time information indicating a length of time related to saturation of the light receiving element (18).

Abstract

An information output device (1) comprises a route acquisition unit (10) and an output control unit (20). The route acquisition unit (10) acquires route information. The output control unit (20) produces an audio output of exit route information when a mobile object moves along a circular path (200). At least a part of the circular path (200) is included in the route. In the circular path (200), a plurality of branching paths (D) are connected to a circular passage (C). The exit route information relates to an exit route that is included in the route and is a branching path through which the mobile object is to exit among the plurality of branching paths. If at least one of the distance of a first section (X) between a first branching path (D1) of the circular path (200) and a second branching path (D2) adjacent to the first branching path (D1), and a time required for the mobile object to move through the first section (X) satisfy a predetermined criterion, the output control unit (20) produces an audio output of at least a part of the exit route information when the mobile object moves through the first section (X).

Abstract

In the information processing device, the point cloud data acquisition means acquires point cloud data generated by a measurement device provided on a ship. The water-surface reflection data extraction means extracts data obtained by measuring a position which is a predetermined distance away from a shore and which is within a predetermined distance from a measurement position of the measurement device, as a water-surface reflection data measured by reflection at a water surface. Then, the water-surface height calculation means calculates a water-surface height based on the water-surface reflection data.

Abstract

A control unit varies a drive waveform of a scanning angle for moving a spot irradiation position in a second direction according to a length of a spot in the second direction. Specifically, the control unit reduces the number of segments in the second direction followed by the spot irradiation position in a case where the length of the spot in the second direction is a predetermined first length, as compared with the number of segments in the second direction followed by the spot irradiation position in a case where the length of the spot in the second direction is a second length shorter than the first length.

Abstract

A data structure of the voxel data VD according to this example is a map data structure which is a data structure of map data to be referred to by an information processing device 1, and includes position information indicating a position of a structural object and attribution information indicating whether or not the structural object is a floating object on a water surface. If the attribute information indicates that the structural object is a floating object on a water surface, the attribute information is used by the information processing device 1 to identify the position of the structural object by using the position information as relative position information relative to a position of the water surface.
