Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a route creation device capable of creating a more optimal route in consideration of a submersion area on a route. SOLUTION: A route creation device 1 obtains information on submersion at a surrounding area of a vehicle M, and based on the obtained submersion information, determines whether or not the vehicle M can pass through a submersion area which can be covered with water through driving by the use of a secondary battery 15 to create a route based on the determination result. This ensures that the vehicle M can pass through even a route which is submerged, but travelable through motor driving by the use of the secondary battery 15. By making a determination considering even the traveling possibility through driving by the use of the secondary battery 15 in such a manner, the route creation device 1 can prevent creation of a more roundabout route than necessary.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide road traffic information from the beginning, with a demanded timing. SOLUTION: A receiving device receives road traffic information and comprises a voice memory means, a first voice comparing means, and a first road traffic information storage means. The voice memory means memorizes voice of the beginning of the road traffic information. The first voice comparing means compares a content including the received road traffic information with the voice of the beginning, and determines whether the voice of the beginning is contained in the content or not. When it is determined by the first voice comparing means that the voice of the beginning is contained in the content, the first road traffic information storage means memorizes the road traffic information started by the voice of the beginning. The first road traffic information storage means outputs from the beginning of the road traffic information, according to a reproduction request by a reproduction apparatus.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a safety device capable of suitably protecting an occupant from collision even when the collision after creeping under an obstacle is generated. SOLUTION: The safety device 1 is provided with a detection means 6 for detecting possibility that the occupant of the vehicle and a front obstacle directly collide by creeping a front end of the vehicle under the front obstacle without colliding to the front obstacle, namely detecting the creeping under the obstacle.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the starts of electrical loads from being overlapped with each other. SOLUTION: This electrical load controller comprises a VSC device in which a predetermined rush current generated when the device is started for a TA period, an AHC device started after a T1 period is passed after a notice signal for notifying of the start beforehand to the VSC device, and a start request means for requesting the start of at least the VSC device of the VSC device and the AHC device. A communication time between the AHC device and the VSC device is T2. T1 is longer than T2, and TA is shorter than the value obtained by deducting T2 from T1. The VSC device is promptly started when the start notice signal is not received by the VSC device when the request of the start is made from the start request means to the VSC device.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a software verification device and a software verification program capable of easily understanding software.SOLUTION: A software verification device 1 includes: data flow graph generation means 10 which generates a data flow graph DF of software SW to be verified; subgraph generation means SG which generates a subgraph SG in which path decomposition is performed only for an important branch with respect to a function on the data flow graph DF; and state transition diagram generation means 12 which generates a state transition diagram SDwith each subgraph SG being one state unit. It is preferable to include: precondition setting means 13 which sets a precondition; inspection means 14 which inspects the software SW to be verified based on the precondition, and determines whether or not each state and a transition between one state and another in the state transition diagram SDcan be established; and state transition diagram correction means 14 which reduces a state and/or a transition determined not to be established from the state transition diagram SD.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an anti-dazzle device for a vehicle, preventing an occupant from being dazzled by lights including sunlight and allowing the occupant to accurately recognize the position of a predetermined object existing in the vicinity of the vehicle. SOLUTION: The anti-dazzle device 10 for the vehicle includes: an anti-dazzle means 17 switched between a transparent state not to limit the incidence of a light 1 into a vehicle interior and an opaque state to limit the incidence of the light 1 thereinto; a position detection means 23 for detecting a position Pcross of the predetermined object 3 in the vicinity of the vehicle on the anti-dazzle means 17 as viewed from the point of view of the occupant 5; an image generation means 25 for generating an image of the predetermined object 3 in the vicinity of the vehicle on the anti-dazzle means 17 as viewed from the point of view of the occupant 5; and an image display means 19 for displaying the image generated by the image generation means 25 in the position Pcross detected by the position detection means 23.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the automatic operation system of a vehicle capable of ensuring safety while preventing the cost increase or scale enlargement of on- vehicle equipment. SOLUTION: Different dummy data are transmitted to a comparator 43 as each arithmetic result in a main CPU 41 and a sub-CPU 42, and when a matching signal is outputted from the comparator 43, it is judged that abnormality is generated. When it is judged that abnormality is generated from the matching signal outputted from the comparator 43 according to the transmission of the dummy data, the main CPU 41 transmits a self-system stop signal to an output signal selecting device 60 so that the arithmetic result of the processing system can be prevented form being used as a signal for controlling an actuator for traveling control.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the automatic operation system of a vehicle capable of ensuring safety while preventing the cost increase or scale enlargement of on- vehicle equipment. SOLUTION: Extended input circuits 44, 45, 46, and so on transmit input data from sensors through a data bus 43 to a main CPU 41 in response to a select signal. A decoder 48 transmits the select signal to the extended input circuit corresponding to address data transmitted from the main CPU 41 through an address bus 47. At the time of transmitting data from the extended input circuit to the main CPU 41, an identifier for specifying the extended input circuit for transmitting the data is applied, and the address data to the decoder 48 are compared with the identifier transmitted from the extended input circuit in the main CPU 41, and when the selected extended input circuit is not matched with the extended input circuit which transmits the data, it is judged that abnormality is generated.
