An operational model for autonomous delivery mobility systems using high-accuracy and medium-accuracy maps with remote monitoring
摘要
With the rise of telework, interest in relocating to rural areas has increased. However, the lack of shopping facilities and inconvenient public transportation remains significant challenges. To resolve these issues, we propose an operational model for autonomous delivery mobility systems to enhance e-commerce services in rural suburbs. The autonomous delivery mobility system ensures safe and secure operations by utilizing remote monitoring and a high-accuracy map, making it easier to implement in rural suburbs. Additionally, to maintain service continuity during the high-accuracy map update periods, we employ a medium-accuracy map. This map is generated from the driving trajectories of the autonomous delivery mobilities. It also helps reduce the human resources required for monitoring. To verify the feasibility of this operational model, we generated a medium-accuracy map from in-vehicle driving trajectories and evaluated their accuracy and coverage.
