INFORMATION PRESENTATION CONTROL DEVICE, INFORMATION PRESENTATION DEVICE, INFORMATION PRESENTATION CONTROL METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM

An information presentation control device includes: an analyzer to calculate a degree of risk based on information regarding an object located around a vehicle; an occupant monitor to determine whether a driver is aware of approach of the object, based on information obtained by imaging the driver with a camera; an image processor to cause at least one of the displays to perform alerting display, based on the degree of risk; and a sound processor to cause the sound output device to generate, as an alerting sound, a sound whose sound image is controlled so that a virtual sound source is localized at a position of at least one of the at least one display, based on the degree of risk. When the driver is aware of the object, the sound processor stops generation of the alerting sound or decreases a sound volume of the alerting sound.

Smart door apparatus of a construction machine

A smart door apparatus may include an actuator and a harness. The actuator may be installed at a door rotatably connected with a cabin of the construction machine via a hinge mechanism. The actuator may be configured to operate a locking apparatus of the door by signals of a smart key. The harness may be arranged in an axial direction of the hinge mechanism to supply electricity to the actuator. Thus, only torsion may be applied to the harness regardless of rotation angles of the door to increase a lifespan of the harness.

ROBOTIC APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE OCCUPANT PROTECTION

An apparatus includes a robot body, at least one sensor coupled to the robot body and positioned to receive stimuli from a passenger cabin of a vehicle, an actuatable component coupled to the robot body, and a computer coupled to the robot body and communicatively coupled to the sensor and the actuatable component. The computer is programmed to predict an imminent anomalous event in the vehicle based on data from the at least one sensor, and in response to the determination, actuate the actuatable component to remediate the anomalous event.

PARKING ASSIST APPARATUS

Provided is an obstacle detecting unit that acquires a detection signal based on a distance between a vehicle and an obstacle around the vehicle; an image acquiring unit that acquires an image signal corresponding to an image around the vehicle; and a control unit that executes, based on the detection signal and the image signal, an automatic parking process detecting the parking space and parking the vehicle in the parking space.
