Assistance device for supporting switching between automatic driving mode and manual driving mode
A vehicle can execute an automatic driving mode and a manual driving mode as a driving mode. An assistance device supports mode switching from the automatic driving mode to the manual driving mode. The assistance device includes an acquisition interface and a notification interface. The acquisition interface acquires data indicating a situation around the vehicle. The notification interface that communicates a candidate position derived based on the data acquired by the acquisition interface, the candidate position being a candidate of a position where the mode switching should be executed.
WORK VEHICLE
This work vehicle (tractor), which is provided with an engine and an accelerator pedal capable of changing the operational state of the engine, and is configured to be free to travel by means of an operation of the accelerator pedal by an operator, is equipped with a display near an operator's seat, said display being configured to be capable of displaying a screen (travel customization screen) for selecting whether or not to allow travel in conjunction with the accelerator.
Steering assist device
A steering control device includes a driving support ECU. The driving support ECU 10 is configured to execute an original lane return assist control to control a steering so as to return an own vehicle from a target lane to the original lane when a lane change assist control is stopped by detection of a first approaching vehicle in a situation where the own vehicle enters the target lane to travel in the target lane. The driving support ECU is configured to prohibit the original lane return assist control and to execute a lateral speed zero control to control the steering so as to maintain a lateral speed which is a speed in a lane width direction of the own vehicle at zero, when an original lane side vehicle is being detected.
Virtual footrest apparatus
Apparatus for a vehicle is provided such that the throttle pedal can act as a virtual footrest. The apparatus comprises a pedal adapted to be depressed by a driver and a restriction mechanism adapted to restrict the displacement of the pedal. The apparatus also comprises a visual sign which enters a first illuminated state in response to activation of the footrest mode. The visual sign remains in the first illuminated state whilst the restriction mechanism retains the pedal in the footrest position, and is extinguished when footrest mode or cruise control is cancelled. The visual sign enters a second illuminated state when the pedal is subjected to a force greater than a first threshold value, so as to push the pedal past through the footrest position whilst in the footrest mode.
Display device for hybrid vehicle
A display device, for a hybrid vehicle for displaying an output relating to traveling of the hybrid vehicle, includes a first region and a second region. The first region indicates the output in a first mode in which an internal combustion engine is stopped and the vehicle travels using an electric motor. The second region indicates the output in a second mode in which the internal combustion engine is operated to travel. The first region and the second region are independently disposed in a predetermined range. Numerals for scale are marked in either one of the first region and the second region.
Display device
A display device used for an electric vehicle including a motor, includes a first area indicating torque of the motor and a second area indicating a coil temperature of a coil included in the electric motor.
Engine sound enhancement systems and methods for gear shifts
An audio system of a vehicle includes a selection module configured to, based on whether a gear shift of a transmission of the vehicle is occurring, set a selected torque to one of: a torque output of an engine of the vehicle; and a predicted torque output of the engine. A sound control module is configured to: determine frequencies for outputting a predetermined engine sound; and based on the selected torque, determine magnitudes for outputting the predetermined engine sound at the frequencies, respectively. An audio driver module is configured to apply power to speakers to output sound within a passenger cabin of the vehicle at the magnitudes and frequencies, respectively.
Vehicle driver feedback device
The disclosure relates generally to an in-vehicle feedback system, and more particularly, to an in-vehicle device with a display or graphical interface that collects driving data and provides feedback based on the driving data. The system may comprise an in-vehicle device that includes a graphical user interface and a processor and a data collection device wirelessly connected to the in-vehicle device. The in-vehicle device may be configured to receive vehicle telematics data from the data collection device and the processor may process the telematics data in real time and cause the telematics data to be displayed on the graphical user interface. The graphical user interface may include a speed display and an acceleration display.
Information recording device, information recording method, and program for recording information
An information recording device acquires outside image information corresponding to an outside image obtained by photographing the outside of a moving body from the moving body; acquires autonomous driving information indicating a state of autonomous driving control of the moving body; acquires display information for simultaneously displaying at least a part of the outside image and an autonomous driving state image indicating the state of the autonomous driving control at a time of photographing the outside image, based on the outside image information and the autonomous driving information; and records the display information in a recording medium. The autonomous driving state image includes brake information indicating whether braking of the moving body is under the autonomous driving control.
Display device
A display device 30 displays information of variables that reflect a state of a vehicle 10. The display device 10 includes: a first display region 31 that displays a scale of a first variable; a second display region 32 that is provided to be aligned with the first display region 31 and displays a scale of a second variable; a first pointing portion 42 that points, in the first display region 31, the first variable in accordance with the state of the vehicle 10; a first strip-shaped image 43 that is displayed between a pointed position of the first pointing portion 42 and a start point S1 of the first display region 31; a second pointing portion 52 that points, in the second display region 32, the second variable in accordance with the state of the vehicle 10; and a second strip-shaped image 53 that is displayed between a pointed position of the second pointing portion 52 and a start point S2 of the second display region.
