Abstract:
A map difference data delivery system includes a map difference data delivery device and a map data holding device. The map difference data delivery device stores map difference data representing a difference between before and after version update and delivers the map difference data. The map difference data includes map elements updated in the version update and dependent map elements by dating back to update of map elements corresponding to a different version. The dependent map elements are map elements that have a dependent relationship and need to be previously updated to avoid conflict with other map elements when updated. The map difference data delivery device groups data of the dependent map elements that have a dependent relationship in the same version.
Abstract:
A display control device mounted on a vehicle: determines whether a caution point exists in front of a vehicle; determines whether the caution point is included in an angle of view of a head-up display mounted on the vehicle; displays a caution content as a superimposed content with the caution point as a superimposition target in response to the caution point being determined to be included in the angle of view; displays the caution content as a non-superimposed content with no superimposition target in response to the caution point being determined to be not included in the angle of view; determines a type of the caution point; displays the caution content associated with the determined type of the caution point.
Abstract:
A driving assistance device: acquires presentation target information; controls a presentation of the presentation target information; calculates a recognition requisite time which is required for a driver to recognize the presentation target information when the presentation target information is presented; calculates a degree of risk which endangers a safety of the driver; calculates a given driving time according to the degree of risk which endangers the safety of the driver; and calculates a safe driving requisite time, which is a time required for the driver to drive safely, according to the degree of risk which endangers the safety of the driver. In a non-presented state of the presentation target information, when the given driving time becomes longer than a sum of the safe driving requisite time and the recognition requisite time, the driving assistance device presents the presentation target information.
Abstract:
A driving assistance apparatus mounted to a first vehicle is provided as follows. A situation determination section determines whether a situation requires compromise between the first vehicle and a nearby vehicle. A target vehicle specification section specifies a second vehicle as a target vehicle that requires compromise with the first vehicle. A scheduled action specification section specifies a scheduled action content of the first vehicle when the situation requiring compromise is determined by the situation determination section. A transmission processing section transmits the scheduled action content specified by the scheduled action specification section to the second vehicle. A reception processing section receives acceptance and refusal information indicating acceptance or refusal of the scheduled action content from the second vehicle. A notification processing section issues a notification indicating whether the driver of the second vehicle accepts the scheduled action content, based on the received acceptance and refusal information.
Abstract:
A driving assistance device used for a vehicle includes: a display processing device that displays a map on a display device; an immature pattern identification device that identifies an immature pattern inexperienced by a driver of the vehicle among multiple patterns with predetermined types into which multiple components of a road network included in the map are classified; and an accessible area identification device that identifies an accessible area to which the vehicle is reachable from a set start point without passing through the immature pattern identified by the immature pattern identification device. The display processing device controls the display device to display the map on which the accessible area identified by the accessible area identification device is superimposed.
Abstract:
A map data updating system includes a first map data storage storing a first version of update-directed data and a first version of update-undirected data in different partitions, a second map data storage storing an image file of a second version of the update-directed data and an image file of a second version of the update-undirected data, and an update processing device that reads the image file of the second version of the update-directed data from the second map data storage device and restores the read image file of the second version of the update-directed data and overwrites the partition storing the first version of the update-directed data.
Abstract:
An onboard display control apparatus mounted on a vehicle and controlling a head-up display displaying information is provided. The onboard display apparatus includes: a space information acquisition section that acquires information representing a position of an object in front of the vehicle; an eye point information acquisition section that acquires information representing a position of an eye; a display controller that determines a display mode of a display image, causing the display image to be displayed and overlapped with a specific target in a visual field of a driver; an output section that provides the display image in accordance with the display mode. The display controller adjusts the display mode of the display image based on information representing behavior of the vehicle, information representing a property of an external environment, or information representing physical ability of the driver.
Abstract:
An ECU as a vehicle device includes an image generation unit that generates an image in a predetermined reference coordinate system, a viewpoint position identification unit that identifies a viewpoint position of a driver; a superimposed position identification unit that identifies a display position at which the image is displayed within an eyesight of the driver; an image conversion unit that generates a converted image obtained by converting the image into a coordinate system having the viewpoint position of the driver as a reference point; and a notification unit that displays a display image falling within the converted image so as to be superimposed on the eyesight of the driver with the projection device.
Abstract:
A vehicle recognition notification apparatus mounted on a subject vehicle includes: a recognition information reception processing section; an another-driver recognition state determination section; an informing control section; a subject-driver recognition state determination section; a recognition information transmission processing section; a subject-vehicle position acquisition section; a vehicle information reception processing section; an another-vehicle position acquisition section; and a visual line detection section. The subject-driver recognition state determination section determines whether the driver of the subject vehicle recognizes the other vehicle. The another-driver recognition state determination section determines whether the subject vehicle is present in a predetermined viewable range of the other vehicle.
Abstract:
In a display-object information displaying apparatus, each display object predetermined as a detection target is detected from image data captured by a front capture apparatus to capture of the front of a vehicle. A recognition failure probability that the driver fails to recognize each display object is evaluated. A memory saves the recognition failure probability and display object data containing display-object information with respect to each display object. A display unit displays the display-object information based on the corresponding display object data saved in the memory with respect to each display object. The display-object information about the display object assigned the higher recognition failure probability is displayed preferentially among the display objects corresponding to the display object data saved in the memory.
