Information processing apparatus, non-transitory storage medium, and information processing method

The invention relates to an information processing apparatus, a non-transitory storage medium, and an information processing method. The information processing method includes: receiving a shift request for controlling a shift range of a vehicle from a plurality of application software configured to implement a driving assistance function of the vehicle; when the shift range in which drive wheels of the vehicle can rotate is a travel range and the shift range in which the drive wheels cannot rotate is a parking range, the shift request is coordinated using whether the received shift request is a request for the travel range or a request for the parking range as a condition; and generating an indication value of an action request for driving the actuator based on the coordination result. 本发明涉及信息处理装置、非暂时性存储介质以及信息处理方法，该信息处理方法包括：从构成为实现车辆的驾驶辅助功能的多个应用软件受理用于控制上述车辆的换挡挡位的换挡请求；在上述车辆的驱动轮能够旋转的上述换挡挡位为行驶挡位、上述驱动轮无法旋转的上述换挡挡位为驻车挡位时，使用所受理的上述换挡请求是上述行驶挡位的请求还是上述驻车挡位的请求作为条件来协调上述换挡请求；以及基于协调结果来生成用于驱动促动器的动作请求的指示值。
