    Abstract: A traffic signal control apparatus comprises a determination part determining whether or not to stop the vehicle based on behavior of the vehicle entering a predetermined intersection; and a selection part selecting a traffic signal machine(s) that performs signal control for stopping the vehicle from among control target traffic signal machines. The selection part selects a traffic signal machine(s) that is located in a traveling direction of the vehicle and that may eliminate traffic jam by the signal control for stopping the vehicle.

    Abstract: A driving-state monitoring system includes a driving-state monitoring device and a driving-state sensing device. The driving-state sensing device captures an image of a driver of a vehicle to thereby generate driving-state data. The driving-state monitoring device acquires the driving-state data and the captured image of a driver of a vehicle from the driving-state sensing device. An authentication process is made to determine whether or not a driver matches a pre-registered driver based on the information of a driver included in the captured image, thus determining the identification information of the driver successfully authenticated. The driving-state data is recorded on a database in association with the identification information of the driver. Accordingly, it is possible for the driving-state monitoring device to monitor a plurality of vehicles using a plurality of driving-state sensing devices, thus precisely managing a plurality of vehicles in terms of their driving states.
