Abstract:
A cruise control for a vehicle that detects an inter-vehicle distance to a preceding vehicle. A first vehicle speed instruction value is computed based one the inter-vehicle distance. Curve information of a curve in the road ahead of the vehicle is detected, and a second vehicle speed instruction value is computed for traveling on the curve based on the curve information. A final target vehicle speed is set based on the vehicle speed instruction values. When the vehicle travels through the curve while the first vehicle speed instruction value is larger than the second vehicle speed instruction value, the final target vehicle speed is set to a vehicle speed higher than the second vehicle speed instruction value and lower than the first vehicle speed instruction value. The speed of the vehicle is controlled based on the final target vehicle speed.
Abstract:
A bend-test device for wire harnesses capable of handling a plurality of samples at the same time. The bend-test device includes a fixed frame unit, a hinge unit with a fulcrum axis, and a mobile frame unit connected to the fixed frame unit via the hinge unit in a freely pivotable manner around the fulcrum axis. The fixed frame unit includes fixed-side panels respectively including holder holes, each of which holds a grommet carrying a wire harness. The fixed-side panels are arranged in a parallel relation to each other, and aligned perpendicular to the direction of the fulcrum axis, in a freely mountable and removable manner. Likewise, the mobile frame unit includes mobile-side panels respectively including holder holes, each of which holds another grommet carrying the wire harness. The mobile-side panels are arranged as mentioned above, so that each of the mobile-side panels can be opposed to a corresponding one among the fixed-side panels. The bend-test device further includes a pivoting mechanism for reciprocatingly pivoting the mobile frame unit relative to the fixed frame unit around the fulcrum axis of the hinge unit.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus provides multiple functions including at least a first function and a second function, to an application. The information processing apparatus includes circuitry. The circuitry receives an input of a first setting value for the first function and a second setting value for the second function, the first function and the second function being used by the application to execute a flow. The circuitry, in response to an instruction to execute the flow, determines validity of the first setting value and the second setting value. The circuitry requests execution of the flow using the first setting value and the second setting value in response to a determination result indicating that the first setting value and the second setting value are valid.
Abstract:
A parking assist control apparatus includes an obstacle detector that detects an obstacle around a vehicle; a parking operation assist unit that executes a parking operation assist for preventing a close approach between the obstacle and the vehicle when judges that a distance of the obstacle to the vehicle becomes equal-to or shorter-than a predetermined control start distance; a parking start judgment unit that judges a parking operation; a parking progress judgment unit that judges a parking progress degree during the parking operation judged by the parking start judgment unit; and a parking progress computing unit that reduces an assist control amount by the parking operation assist unit according to the parking progress degree judged by the parking progress judgment unit. According to the parking assist control apparatus, the parking operation assist for the obstacle around the vehicle can be executed more adequately.
Abstract:
In the case that a vehicle 1 is making a reverse movement, a control section 4 sets a braking control operation distance according to an angle formed by the vehicle 1's proceeding direction and an extending direction of a road on which an approaching vehicle is traveling. With this, a braking control is implemented at a delayed timing in a scene where the following possibility is high: the driver wishes to end the reverse movement operation as early as possible when a space for allowing the approaching vehicle to pass by is not present at the back of the vehicle 1. Thereby, the cumbersomeness or discomfort which may be felt by the driver with respect to the braking control can be decreased.

The present invention relates to an optical film produced by stretching a film having a low residual solvent amount in a machine direction followed by heat-treating it at a temperature falling from the glass transition point (Tg) to the melting point (Tm) thereof, which is a cellulose acylate film satisfying the following relations (1) to (6) and containing at least one cellulose acylate and at least one retardation enhancer having an absorption maximum wavelength λmax of from 280 nm to 380 nm: (1) 35 nm≦Re(550)≦75 nm, (2) 85 nm≦Rth(550)≦140 nm, (3) 0 nm
Abstract:
Highly-accurate approximate positional information is transmitted to a communication terminal.An approximate positional information DB 23 of a SUPL server 20 included in a positioning support system 10 includes approximate positional information which is used for positioning calculation at the communication terminal 60 and which indicates a position of a cell C1 in which the communication terminal 60 exists and a cell ID identifying the cell C1, with approximate positional information and the cell ID being associated with each other. Based on a positioning information transmission request which includes a cell ID and which is transmitted from the communication terminal 60, approximate positional information stored in the approximate positional information DB 23 is acquired and transmitted from a communication unit 21 to the communication terminal 60. In addition, positioning result information that is information indicating a result of the positioning calculation which is transmitted from the communication terminal 60 is received and, based on this information, approximate positional information stored in the approximate positional information DB 23 is updated by a control unit 22. The accuracy of approximate positional information is enhanced due to the approximate positional information stored in the approximate positional information DB 23 being updated based on positioning result information.

Abstract:
An adaptive cruise traveling control system is configured to control a speed of a host vehicle at a basic speed-control mode at which a set vehicle speed is set as a desired vehicle speed for an adaptive cruise traveling control function. The adaptive cruise traveling control system is also configured to control the host vehicle speed at a driver-intervention speed-control mode at which a limited vehicle speed of a road, on which the host vehicle is traveling, is set as the desired vehicle speed, when the desired vehicle speed has been set to the limited vehicle speed manually by a driver's operation made to a man-machine interface, under a condition where the limited vehicle speed has been detected.
