摘要： A vehicular driver monitoring system includes an interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly and a camera disposed at the interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly behind and viewing through an electrochromic mirror reflective element into the interior cabin of the vehicle. Supplemental sources of near infrared illumination are integrated into the mirror assembly that, when powered to emit near infrared light, illuminate at least a front seating area within the interior cabin of the vehicle. Presence of the camera is not readily apparent to an occupant sitting in the interior cabin of the vehicle. The interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly includes a processor that processes image data captured by the camera. The camera at least views a driver-side front seating area of the vehicle and, via processing at the processor of image data captured by the camera, the driver seated at the driver-side front seating area is monitored.

摘要： There is provided an audio information providing system that can solve the problem with the audio lag and includes navigation with higher accuracy. The audio information providing system is an audio guidance system including an audio output device that is worn in the ear of a user and an information processing terminal that is communicatively connected to the audio output device. The audio output device includes: an audio output unit configured to output audio to the ear of the user; and a detection unit configured to detect the direction of the head of the user. The information processing terminal includes: a position information acquiring unit configured to acquire a current position of the user; and a generation unit configured to generate audio data which is used for the audio output unit to output audio guidance for a route to a destination to which the user moves from a direction of the destination relative to the direction of the head of the user on the basis of a relationship among position information of the destination, the current position of the user, and information on the direction of the head of the user.

摘要： The present disclosure relates to a driving control apparatus, a driving control method, and a program that can resolve a conflict between a deliberate action and a reflex action during determination of a next action in autonomous driving.
During autonomous driving, a reflex action is determined as a simplified action on the basis of detection results detected by a variety of sensors provided in a vehicle, and a deliberate action ranked higher than a reflex action is determined through elaborate processing. A plurality of resolution modes are made available to deal with a possible conflict between the reflex action and the deliberate action, and by which of the resolution modes the conflict is resolved is specified in advance so that the conflict is resolved by the specified resolution mode. The present disclosure is applicable to motor vehicles that drive autonomously.

摘要： Aspects of the present disclosure relate to differentiating between active and inactive construction zones. In one example, this may include identifying a construction object associated with a construction zone. The identified construction object may be used to map the area of the construction zone. Detailed map information may then be used to classify the activity of the construction zone. The area of the construction zone and the classification may be added to the detailed map information. Subsequent to adding the construction zone and the classification to the detailed map information, the construction object (or another construction object) may be identified. The location of the construction object may be used to identify the construction zone and classification from the detailed map information. The classification of the classification may be used to operate a vehicle having an autonomous mode.

摘要： Systems and methods for the detection and analysis of curvature data are described. A method includes: receiving position data of a vehicle turning maneuver along a portion of a roadway, where the position data includes measured position data collected by sensors of a vehicle while traversing the vehicle turning maneuver; associating the received position data with map data of the portion of the roadway; generating a spline based on the position data, the spline being a smooth curve representing the vehicle turning maneuver from a first road segment to a second road segment; identifying a segment of the spline containing a turning point of the vehicle turning maneuver, the turning point representing a change of a vehicle path from along the first road segment to along the second road segment; and determining a maximum curvature value for the identified segment of the spline.

摘要： Methods, systems, and computer program products for determining transit routes through crowd-sourcing, for determining an estimated time of arrival (ETA) of a vehicle of the transit route at a given location, and for providing predictive reminders to a user for catching a vehicle of the transit route. A server receives signal source information about wireless signal sources detected by user devices, including information about a first wireless signal source detected by some devices. The server determines that the first wireless signal source is moving. The server determines that the first wireless signal source is associated with a public transit route upon determining that the signal source information satisfies one or more selection criteria. The server stores information associating the first wireless signal source with the public transit route as transit movement data corresponding to the public transit route.

摘要： An apparatus and a method for controlling a vehicle, which control a route of the vehicle or an air circulation mode of the vehicle based on an outdoor air condition of an autonomous driving vehicle and control an indoor air cleaner of the vehicle based on an indoor air condition. In some implementations, an apparatus for controlling a vehicle includes an outdoor measurement sensor attached to an exterior of the vehicle and measuring an external fine dust concentration, a communicator receiving, from an environment server, a local fine dust concentration corresponding to a position of the vehicle, and when a difference between the measured external fine dust concentration and the received local fine dust concentration exceeds a set allowance, a controller checking whether an object generating fine dust exists outside the vehicle and allowing the vehicle to travel while avoiding the object when it is confirmed that the object exists.

摘要： A method of generating a horizon for use by an ADAS of a vehicle involves using digital location-based data, driver data and/or vehicle data to determine the likelihood that different outgoing paths are taken at a decision point along a currently traversed road segment, and deriving a probability that each path may be taken. The probability may be based on one or more of: an angle of the path relative to the incoming path, the road class of the path, a speed profile of the path, historical paths taken by vehicles at the decision point, and historical paths taken at the decision point by the individual driver or vehicle.
