摘要： According to the present invention, information which is associated with a motion of a vehicle can be acquired even in the case where no vehicle travels on a road. Motion information, which is associated with the motion of the vehicle on the road where the vehicle traveled, is acquired along with time information. Reference traffic information, which is traffic information on the road at a reference time which is specified by the time information, is acquired from a traffic information providing device which constantly provides the traffic information. A correlation between the motion information and the reference traffic information is specified. Furthermore, estimated motion information, which indicates an estimated motion of the vechicle on the road at an estimate time when the motion is estimated, is acquired based on estimating source traffic information at the estimate time and the correlation, the estimating source traffic information being provided as the traffic information of the estimating source from the traffic information providing device in the case where no motion information is acquired at the estimate time.

摘要： An amplitude control unit (40) detects the amplitude of a movable element (12) that reciprocates relative to a stator (11), detects fluctuations in a load over time according to detected fluctuations over time in the amplitude, and detects an abnormality on the basis of the detected fluctuations over time in the load. The amplitude control unit (40) outputs the detected amplitudes to a control output unit (50). The control output unit (50) controls a drive current (Id) for reciprocating the movable element (12) on the basis of the amplitude information supplied from the amplitude control unit (40).
