Abstract

A data processing device, a data processing method, or a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a data processing program acquires first data that is data related to a vehicle by a preset first acquisition manner, acquires second data that is data related to an object other than the vehicle by a preset second acquisition manner, generates first standardization data including a first data ID and a first standard data value obtained by normalizing a value of the first data, and generates second standardization data including a second data ID and a second standard data value obtained by normalizing a value of the second data.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A data processing device comprising:
at least one of (i) a circuit and (ii) a processor with a memory storing computer program code executable by the processor, the at least one of the circuit and the processor configured to cause the data processing device to serve as:
a first acquisition portion configured to acquire first data that is data related to a vehicle by a preset first acquisition manner from the vehicle;
a second acquisition portion configured to acquire second data that is data related to an object other than the vehicle by a preset second acquisition manner from the object; and
a standardization processing portion configured to
generate first standardization data including a first data ID for identifying the first data acquired by the first acquisition portion and a first standard data value obtained by normalizing a value of the first data so that a same physical quantity of the first standard data value has a same value regardless of a vehicle type and a vehicle manufacture, and
generate second standardization data including a second data ID for identifying the second data acquired by the second acquisition portion and a second standard data value obtained by normalizing a value of the second data so that a same physical quantity of the second standard data value has a same value regardless of the vehicle type and the vehicle manufacture; and

a data storage configured to store the first standardization data and the second standardization data, wherein
the at least one of the circuit and the processor is further configured to cause the data processing device to serve as a data transmission portion configured to transmit the first standardization data and the second standardization data stored in the data storage when a preset data transmission condition is satisfied for each of the first standardization data and the second standardization data.

2 . The data processing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the standardization processing portion is further configured to
determine whether each of the first data acquired by the first acquisition portion and the second data acquired by the second acquisition portion is dynamic data or static data, and
set type information indicating the dynamic data or the static data to the first standardization data and the second standardization data, and
the data transmission portion is further configured to transmit the first standardization data and the second standardization data when the data transmission condition set for each of the first standardization data and the second standardization data according to the type information is satisfied.

3 . The data processing device according to claim 2 , wherein
when the type information indicates the static data, the data transmission condition is set to transmit the first standardization data or the second standardization data after the first standardization data or the second standardization data that is a target of the data transmission condition is generated.

4 . The data processing device according to claim 2 , wherein
when the type information indicates the dynamic data, the data transmission condition is set to transmit the first standardization data or the second standardization data that is a target of the data transmission condition each time a preset transmission cycle elapses.

5 . The data processing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the first data acquired by the first acquisition portion includes a first raw data ID for identifying the first data, the second data acquired by the second acquisition portion includes a second raw data ID for identifying the second data, and the standardization processing portion is further configured to:
convert the first data acquired by the first acquisition portion into first common data including the first raw data ID and a first raw data value indicating a value of the first data;
convert the second data acquired by the second acquisition portion into second common data that is common data including the second raw data ID and a second raw data value indicating a value of the second data;
generate the first standardization data by normalizing the first raw data value included in the first common data; and
generate the second standardization data by normalizing the second raw data value included in the second common data.

6 . The data processing device according to claim 5 , wherein
the standardization processing portion is further configured to
determine whether each of the first data acquired by the first acquisition portion and the second data acquired by the second acquisition portion is dynamic data or static data, and
add type information indicating the dynamic data or the static data to the first common data and the second common data.

7 . The data processing device according to claim 3 , wherein
the data transmission condition is set to transmit the first standardization data or the second standardization data each time after the first standardization data or the second standardization data that is the target of the data transmission condition is generated.

8 . The data processing device according to claim 3 , wherein
the data transmission condition is set to prohibit transmission when a data value included in the first standardization data or the second standardization data that is the target of the data transmission condition does not change even in a case where the first standardization data or the second standardization data is generated.

9 . A data processing method executed by a data processing device, the method comprising:
acquiring first data that is data related to a vehicle by a preset first acquisition manner from the vehicle; acquiring second data that is data related to an object other than the vehicle by a preset second acquisition manner from the object; generating first standardization data including a first data ID for identifying the acquired first data and a first standard data value obtained by normalizing a value of the first data so that a same physical quantity of the first standard data value has a same value regardless of a vehicle type and a vehicle manufacture, and generating second standardization data including a second data ID for identifying the acquired second data and a second standard data value obtained by normalizing a value of the second data so that a same physical quantity of the second standard data value has a same value regardless of the vehicle type and the vehicle manufacture; and transmitting the first standardization data and the second standardization data when a preset data transmission condition is satisfied for each of the first standardization data and the second standardization data.

10 . A non-transitory tangible storage medium storing a program causing a computer to serve as:
a first acquisition portion configured to acquire first data that is data related to a vehicle by a preset first acquisition manner from the vehicle; a second acquisition portion configured to acquire second data that is data related to an object other than the vehicle by a preset second acquisition manner from the object; a standardization processing portion configured to
generate first standardization data including a first data ID for identifying the first data acquired by the first acquisition portion and a first standard data value obtained by normalizing a value of the first data so that a same physical quantity of the first standard data value has a same value regardless of a vehicle type and a vehicle manufacture, and
generate second standardization data including a second data ID for identifying the second data acquired by the second
