摘要： A driving assistance apparatus mounted to a vehicle is disclosed. The apparatus determines whether an amount of change in tire wheel speed of each tire wheel of the vehicle exceeds a threshold. The apparatus specifies a tire wheel crossing order, which is an order in which the tire wheels of the vehicle cross over a level difference between a road and a parking lot when the vehicle crosses over the level difference. The apparatus determines whether or not the vehicle has crossed over the level difference between the road and the parking lot, based on whether a threshold-exceeding order is identical to the specified tire wheel crossing order. The threshold-exceeding order is an order in which the amounts of change in the tire wheel speed of the respective tire wheels exceed the threshold.

摘要： When a map screen is displayed in a navigation system of a subject vehicle, a position of any other vehicle is estimated and is displayed in the map screen. Influence of delay due to the following is eliminated or reduced: time consumed in processing in a navigation system of the other vehicle; time consumed in communication between the navigation system of the other vehicle and the navigation system of the subject vehicle; time from when the navigation system of the subject vehicle receives communication information to when it generates information to be notified; and the like. In cases where the influence of delay is taken into account, as mentioned above, accuracy of a notified position of the other vehicle is enhanced. Thus, an accurate operation support system is provided to minimize occurrence of errors.

摘要： A touch operation unit has a manipulated surface accepting a touch operation. An operation detection unit detects a touch operation on the manipulated surface. A moving unit moves the touch operation unit. A movement control unit drives the moving unit to control a movement of the touch operation unit, when the operation detection unit detects a touch operation, to satisfy a predetermined stimulable condition enabling stimulation of a skin sensory receptor. The stimulable condition is a condition of a movement quantity of the touch operation unit and a moving speed of the touch operation unit or a condition of the movement quantity of the touch operation unit and an acceleration of the touch operation unit.

摘要： A collision detector includes a deformable portion and a planar sensor accompanied by a process circuit and a collision determination unit. The deformable portion is configured to be deformed on a collision on an object. The planar sensor has a planar coil formed as a planar winding of winding wire to be deformed along the deformation of the deformable portion. The process circuit generates an electric signal that is in proportion to a self inductance Ls of the planar coil. The collision determination unit determines whether the object collided with the deformable member based on the change of the electric signal.
