Abstract: In some examples, one or more processors may receive at least one first visible light image and a first thermal image. Further, the processor(s) may generate, from the at least one first visible light image, an edge image that identifies edge regions in the at least one first visible light image. At least one of a lane marker or road edge region may be determined based at least in part on information from the edge image. In addition, one or more first regions of interest in the first thermal image may be determined based on at least one of the lane marker or the road edge region. Furthermore, a gain of a thermal sensor may be adjusted based on the one or more first regions of interest in the first thermal image.

Abstract: A damping force adjustable shock absorber in2cludes an electromagnetic damping force adjustment device (17) having a damping force adjustment valve (18), and a solenoid (33) configured to variably adjust the damping force. The solenoid includes a coil (39) configured to generate a magnetic force by power supply, a movable iron core (43) located on an inner peripheral side of the coil, an anchor member (40) configured to attract the movable iron core. The movable iron core includes a thick cylindrical portion (43A) and a taper cylindrical portion (43B). The thick cylindrical portion includes a fixation hole (43A1) in which a shaft portion (44) is fixed. The taper cylindrical portion has an inner peripheral surface flaring so as to define a taper shape. A recessed portion (43A2) is formed around the fixation hole. The recessed portion allows hydraulic fluid to flow in an axial direction of the movable iron core.

Abstract: A shock absorber includes a cylinder-side member having an inner cylinder, a piston-side member having a piston and a piston rod that move relative to the inner cylinder, and a phase correction communication passage. The phase correction communication passage is provided between a bottom-side oil chamber, which is one side chamber, and a rod-side oil chamber, which is the other side chamber. That is, the phase correction communication passage is provided in the inner cylinder which is the cylinder-side member and communicates the bottom-side oil chamber and rod-side chamber with each other. By having a spiral conduit that advances in the axial direction while spiraling (orbiting) multiple times at the same diameter, the phase correction communication passage is configured as a second damping mechanism which generates a force (an axial force) that advances the phase of the damping force.

Abstract: A transfer (13) that changes a distribution ratio of torque to be transmitted to a wheel using an electric motor (43), is controlled by a TF-ECU (18). The TF-ECU (18) includes a driver circuit (200) that drives the electric motor (43), a current sensor (53) that detects an actual current of the electric motor (43), and a microcomputer (100) that calculates a target current (I*) corresponding to a desired distribution ratio of torque and performs current feedback control for calculating an operation amount (D) of the electric motor (43) so as to adjust an actual current (Ia) to the target current (I*), and then outputs to the driver circuit (200) a drive signal corresponding to the operation amount (D).

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an electronic control unit that curbs overflow of a sealant at a three-way junction of the sealant in the vicinity of a connector. The electronic control unit includes a first seal part 51 that seals between a base member 40 and a cover member 30, a second seal part 52 that seals between the base member 40 and a connector housing 20, and a third seal part 53 that is connected to the first seal part 51 and the second seal part 52 and seals between the cover member 30 and the connector housing 20. In a part (three-way junction) where the first seal part 51, the second seal part 52, and the third seal part 53 intersect, a space part 41JA1 that is connected to the recessed part 41 and recessed further from a surface forming the recessed part 41 is formed.

Abstract: There has been a problem that when a value of a current flowing through a thermistor increases, a voltage drop generated in the thermistor increases, and variations occur in a clamp voltage. A semiconductor device includes: a switching element that is on-off controlled; and a surge voltage protection circuit connected between a positive electrode side terminal of the switching element and a control terminal of the switching element. The surge voltage protection circuit includes a first Zener diode, a second Zener diode connected in series with the first Zener diode, and a temperature characteristic compensating element having a temperature coefficient different in polarity from the first Zener diode and the second Zener diode and connected in parallel with the second Zener diode.

Abstract: To be capable of concurrent execution of a function group not in data conflict by a plurality of cores and to execute a function pair in data conflict in a temporal separation manner. A process barrier 20 includes N−1 checker functions 22 and one limiter function 23, where the number of cores capable of concurrently executing the functions is N (N is an integer equal to or greater than 2), the checker functions 22 determine whether the head entry of a lock-free function queue LFQ1 is either the checker function 22 or the limiter function 23, and repeats reading of the head entry of the lock-free function queue LFQ1 if either, and ends processing if neither, and the limiter function 23 is an empty function ending without performing any processing.
