Abstract: An autonomous moving body capable of appropriately avoiding an approaching autonomous moving body and efficiently executing a given task even when the autonomous moving bodies are not controlled by a single system or without intercommunication between them and a control program for the autonomous moving body are provided. An autonomous moving body moves along a planned moving path in order to execute a given task, and includes an external sensor that recognizes another autonomous moving body given another task and an operation state thereof, an avoidance determination unit that determines, when it predicts that the autonomous moving body and the another autonomous moving body recognized by the external sensor may come into contact with each other as they approach each other, whether to avoid the another autonomous moving body, and a movement control unit that controls a movement unit based on the determination of the avoidance determination unit.

Abstract: A vehicle control system includes a limiter device, and a setting device to set an upper speed limit on the limiter device, based on speed limit values extracted from image information. The setting device includes a derivation unit to derive a condition to raise display priority for each speed limit value; an obtainment unit to obtain determination information for determining whether the condition is satisfied; a calculation unit to raise the display priority of the speed limit value that corresponds to the condition determined satisfied with the determination information, among the speed limit values extracted from the image information; a display control unit to display the speed limit values in descending order of the display priority; and a setting unit configured to set the upper speed limit on the limiter device, based on one of the displayed speed limit values, selected by an occupant of the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle control device which can substantially eliminate or shorten a period when vehicle speed exceeds a lowered speed limit when a vehicle goes into a road where a speed limit lower than before then during running of the vehicle should be provided. A speed control decreases vehicle speed so that the vehicle speed approaches the next speed limit from a time point when it is judged that a position of the own-vehicle is at a predetermined position in front of a transition point which is a point where the next speed limit starts to be applied, in a case where a specified condition that the next speed limit is lower than the present speed limit is satisfied.

Abstract: A travel control apparatus is configured to perform an overtaking travel on a host vehicle with a vehicle travelling ahead as an overtaking target vehicle during an autonomous driving of the host vehicle. In a case where the overtaking travel starts, the apparatus determines whether or not the overtaking target vehicle accelerates during the overtaking travel. In a case where it is determined that the overtaking target vehicle accelerates, the apparatus determines whether or not a front vehicle is present in front of the overtaking target vehicle. In a case where it is determined that the front vehicle is not present, the apparatus stops the overtaking travel of the host vehicle, and in a case where it is determined that the front vehicle is present, the apparatus continues the overtaking travel of the host vehicle under a predetermined condition.
