    摘要: An input device includes: a casing that includes a tubular portion in which an end portion of a column post is fitted, and to which a turn lever unit that a driver operates is attached, the column post rotatably supporting a steering shaft; and a biasing member disposed between a brim portion and the column post in a central axis direction of the tubular portion, the brim portion being provided on an inside surface of the tubular portion. The tubular portion includes an engaging portion that engages, in the central axis direction, with an engaged portion of the column post, and in a state in which the engaging portion is engaging with the engaged portion, the biasing member biases the brim portion in a direction in which the brim portion moves away from the column post, the direction being in the central axis direction.

    摘要: An autonomous driving system mounted on a vehicle determines a target path based on necessary information and performs vehicle travel control such that the vehicle follows the target path. A first coordinate system is a vehicle coordinate system at a first timing when the necessary information is acquired. A second coordinate system is a vehicle coordinate system at a second timing later than the first timing. The autonomous driving system calculates, based on the necessary information acquired at the first timing, a first target path defined in the first coordinate system. Then, the autonomous driving system corrects the first target path to a second target path defined in the second coordinate system by performing coordinate transformation from the first coordinate system to the second coordinate system. The autonomous driving system uses the second target path as the target path to perform the vehicle travel control.

    摘要: A proximity sensor system includes: a plurality of proximity sensors 4 to 7; and a fault diagnostic device 8 that diagnoses the presence or absence of faults in the proximity sensors 4 to 7. Each of the proximity sensors 4 to 7 includes: an electrode 40 to 70; a power circuit 45 that applies voltage at an oscillation frequency to the electrodes; and a measuring circuit 46 that measures electrical characteristics of the electrodes. The fault diagnostic device 8 sets at least two of the proximity sensors as an oscillating target and a diagnostic target, acquires a result of measuring the electrical characteristics with the measuring circuit of the diagnostic target, while the power circuit of the oscillating target is generating electromagnetic waves at the oscillation frequency. The fault diagnostic device 8 diagnoses the presence or absence of faults in the diagnostic target, based on the result of measurement.

    摘要: An unmanned driving system includes a moving object configured to be movable by remote control; a remote control unit configured to perform remote control for the moving object, wherein the remote control unit moves the moving object that has been finished a first work at a first place in a factory to a second place in the factory by the remote control, wherein the moving object is produced in the factory, wherein the second place is a place for performing a second work on the moving object; and an information acquisition unit configured to acquire information indicating that a predetermined number or more of another moving objects of the same type as the moving object and having an abnormality arrive at the second place within a predetermined period, wherein when the information acquisition unit acquires the information, the remote control unit moves the moving object that has not been started the second work to a third place in the factory, wherein the third place is different from both the first place and the second place.
