REMOTE OPERATION APPARATUS AND SERVICE CENTER

摘要

A remote operation apparatus controls a vehicle based on an operation signal transmitted from a portable terminal of a user through a service center. A time comparing part compares a first reception time, at which the service center receives the operation signal from the portable terminal, with an operation time at which the user performs a remote operation. A discarding part discards the operation signal when a difference between the reception time and the operation time, as a result of a comparison by the time comparing part, is equal to or longer than a predetermined time period.
