Abstract: A system includes an acquisition unit that acquires an operation amount or a duration count, and a switching unit that switches a driving state. The switching unit switches the driving state to the cooperative driving state when the operation amount is equal to or greater than an intervention threshold and less than a start threshold or the duration count is equal to or greater than a first threshold and less than a second threshold during the autonomous driving state, switches the driving state to the autonomous driving state when the operation amount is less than the intervention threshold or the duration count is less than the first threshold during the cooperative driving state, and switches the driving state to the manual driving state when the operation amount is equal to or greater than the start threshold or the duration count is equal to or greater than the second threshold.

Abstract: A vehicle display control system according to the present disclosure includes an obstacle sensor, an environmental factor sensor, a memory, and a hardware processor coupled to the memory. The obstacle sensor detects an obstacle around a vehicle. The environmental factor sensor detects an environmental factor that changes a detection range of the obstacle sensor with respect to the obstacle. The hardware processor is configured to: control a display device that converts a detection indication region falling within the detection range of the obstacle sensor with respect to the obstacle, into a detection indication image representing the detection indication region from a viewpoint of a driver of the vehicle, and superimposes and displays the detection indication image on a scene around the vehicle; correct the detection range in accordance with the environmental factor; and update the detection indication region in accordance with the detection range that has been corrected.
