INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

The disclosure of Japanese Patent Application No. 2017-223086 filed on Nov. 20, 2017 including the specification, drawings and abstract is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The disclosure relates to an information processing device that notifies a user of information.

2. Description of Related Art

A route search device that searches for an outward route from a departure place to a destination and a return route from the destination to home by combining each movement means with walking, a vehicle, and public transportation as the movement means is known (for example, refer to Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2005-164464 (JP 2005-164464 A)). The route search device searches for the outward route where a user moves by the vehicle from the departure place to a parking lot near a transit point and by another transportation means from the parking lot to the destination, and the return route where the user moves by another transportation means from the destination to the parking lot near the transit point and by the vehicle from the parking lot to the home.

SUMMARY

In the related art, since a route where the user moves by the transportation means other than the vehicle from a predetermined departure place to a parking lot where the vehicle is parked and gets in the vehicle to move to the destination is not assumed to be searched for, there may be an inconvenient case depending on a situation.

The disclosure provides an information processing device capable of improving convenience when a route from a departure place to a destination is searched for.

An aspect of the disclosure relates to an information processing device including an acquisition unit and a route search unit. The acquisition unit is configured to acquire current position information of a vehicle. The route search unit is configured to search for a route from a departure place via the current position of the vehicle to a destination based on the current position information of the vehicle acquired by the acquisition unit.

According to the aspect of the disclosure, since the route from the departure place via the current position of the vehicle to the destination is searched for based on the current position information of the vehicle acquired by the acquisition unit, it is possible for the user to save time and labor for setting the current position of the vehicle as a via point and thus it is possible to improve convenience when the route from the departure place to the destination is searched for.

In the information processing device according to the aspect of the disclosure, the route search unit may further search for a route extending from the departure place to the destination without passing through the current position of the vehicle. The information processing device may further include an output unit configured to output a plurality of searched routes.

In the information processing device according to the aspect of the disclosure, the route search unit may search for a route again when the current position of the vehicle is changed.

According to the aspects of the disclosure, it is possible to improve convenience when the route from the departure place to the destination is searched for.
