First Claim
1. A processing method for a processing apparatus, the processing method causing a computer of the processing apparatus to perform a process comprising:
- detecting a position and a state of a passenger inside a vehicle on a basis of information indicating a state of space including seats inside the vehicle, the information being obtained from a sensor provided inside the vehicle;
notifying an operator of the vehicle of the detected position and the detected state of the passenger inside the vehicle; and
transmitting, upon detecting an operation, the operation being performed by the operator of the vehicle in response to the notifying, for controlling a device near the detected position of the passenger, a control command corresponding to the operation to the device,wherein, the processing apparatus is connected to a display in front of the operator of the vehicle,wherein, in the notifying, a display screen indicating a diagram including the seats inside the vehicle is displayed on the display, an icon corresponding to the detected state of the passenger inside the vehicle at a position of the diagram corresponding to the detected position of the passenger is displayed on the display, and an icon for controlling the device near the detected position of the passenger in the diagram is displayed on the display,wherein, if it has been detected that the icon for controlling the device has been selected, a control command for the device corresponding to the selected icon for controlling the device is transmitted to the device,wherein the information obtained from the sensor is information indicating temperature distribution in the space including the seats inside the vehicle, andwherein the detected position of the passenger and whether the passenger is asleep are determined on a basis of the temperature distribution, and, if it has been determined that the passenger is asleep, an icon, indicating that the passenger is asleep, is displayed on the display.

13. A processing method for a processing apparatus, the processing method causing a computer of the processing apparatus to perform a process comprising:
-
detecting a position and a state of a passenger inside a vehicle on a basis of information indicating a state of space including seats inside the vehicle, the information being obtained from a sensor provided inside the vehicle; notifying an operator of the vehicle of the detected position and the detected state of the passenger inside the vehicle; and transmitting, upon detecting an operation, the operation being performed by the operator of the vehicle in response to the notifying, for controlling a device near the detected position of the passenger, a control command corresponding to the operation to the device, wherein, the processing apparatus is connected to a display in front of the operator of the vehicle, wherein, in the notifying, a display screen indicating a diagram including the seats inside the vehicle is displayed on the display, an icon corresponding to the detected state of the passenger inside the vehicle at a position of the diagram corresponding to the detected position of the passenger is displayed on the display, and an icon for controlling the device near the detected position of the passenger in the diagram is displayed on the display, wherein, if it has been detected that the icon for controlling the device has been selected, a control command for the device corresponding to the selected icon for controlling the device is transmitted to the device, wherein the information obtained from the sensor is information indicating temperature distribution in the space including the seats inside the vehicle, and wherein whether the passenger is asleep is determined on a basis of an amount of variation in the temperature distribution over time, the variation in the temperature distribution being obtained from the sensor, and, if it has been determined that the passenger is asleep, an icon, indicating that the passenger is asleep, is displayed on the display.

14. A processing method for a processing apparatus, the processing method causing a computer of the processing apparatus to perform a process comprising:
-
detecting a position and a state of a passenger inside a vehicle on a basis of information indicating a state of space including seats inside the vehicle, the information being obtained from a sensor provided inside the vehicle; notifying an operator of the vehicle of the detected position and the detected state of the passenger inside the vehicle; and transmitting, upon detecting an operation, the operation being performed by the operator of the vehicle in response to the notifying, for controlling a device near the detected position of the passenger, a control command corresponding to the operation to the device, wherein the information obtained from the sensor is information indicating temperature distribution in the space including the seats inside the vehicle, wherein whether the passenger is wearing a seatbelt is detected on a basis of the temperature distribution in the vehicle, and, if it has been determined that the passenger is not wearing the seatbelt, the operator of the vehicle is notified that the passenger is not wearing the seatbelt, and wherein the seatbelt includes two materials having different values of emissivity, and whether the seatbelt is used is detected by detecting a pattern of temperature distribution corresponding to the two materials.
