Moving route guidance device, moving body, and moving route guidance method
The moving route guidance device includes: display control means configured to execute display control to change at least one of a content and a display position of the route guidance image based on position information of the moving body. The route guidance image includes: a plurality of route identification images respectively corresponding to the plurality of the movable routes that are close to each other and displayed in a manner to correspond to a visually recognized position relationship between the plurality of the movable routes by the driver or a predetermined reference position; and an route instructing image displayed in association with the route identification image that corresponds to the moving route guided by the route guidance image of the plurality of the movable routes.
ON-BOARD ELECTRONIC MIRROR
The purpose of the present invention is to prevent screen flicker when the screen of an on-board electronic mirror changes at a high speed, and to provide optimal information to a user. An on-board electronic minor (10), which is mounted on a vehicle, is provided with: a camera (100) for capturing images of the periphery of the vehicle; a video signal processing circuit (101) for processing the video captured by the camera (100); a monitor (105) for displaying the images processed by the video signal processing circuit (101); sensors (107-111) that are recounted on the vehicle and that detect an event during travel of the vehicle; and a video signal change circuit (103) and a video signal control circuit (112) that, on the basis of the detection results of the sensors (107-111), perform control for changing the video captured by the camera (100) to different video.
DRIVER ASSISTANCE APPARATUS AND VEHICLE
A driver assistance apparatus includes a camera provided in a vehicle and configured to acquire an image; and a processor configured to process the image. The camera includes an image sensor; and a variable lens that includes a liquid crystal layer and configured to alter light that is introduced into the image sensor based on an arrangement of liquid crystal molecules included in the liquid crystal layer. The arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer is dependent on an applied voltage.
DRIVER ASSISTANCE APPARATUS AND VEHICLE
A vehicle camera includes an image sensor and a variable lens. The variable lens includes a liquid crystal layer that includes liquid crystal molecules having an arrangement that depends on a voltage applied to the liquid crystal layer. The variable lens is configured to, based on the arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer, alter light that is introduced into the image sensor.
CYCLIST PROTECTION APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE AND VEHICLE
A cyclist protection apparatus for a vehicle includes including a front section that protrudes forward from a boarding section and includes an upper surface formed by a hood. The cyclist protection apparatus includes a hood latch and a cyclist airbag device. The hood latch is capable of releasing a closed state of the hood such that a front of the hood is openable. The cyclist airbag device is configured to be disposed in the front section below the hood and deploy a cyclist airbag. The cyclist airbag device is configured to deploy the cyclist airbag forward from below the hood in either one of a state where the front of the hood is open and a state where the front of the hood is openable.
Display control device, display device, display control method, and non-transitory storage medium
A display control device includes an obtainer and a controller. The obtainer obtains a detection accuracy of an object that exists in surroundings of a movable body. When the obtainer obtains a first detection accuracy, the controller controls an image generator so as to generate a first predetermined image that shows a first graphic having a predetermined shape and divided into n regions (n is an integer greater than or equal to 2). When the obtainer obtains a second detection accuracy that is lower than the first detection accuracy, the controller controls the image generator so as to generate a second predetermined image that shows a second graphic having a predetermined shape and undivided or divided into m regions (m is an integer that is greater than or equal to 1 and that is smaller than n).
Movable carrier auxiliary system and brake controlling method thereof
A movable carrier auxiliary system includes a state detecting device, a braking device, an environmental detecting device and an emergency brake controlling device. The state detecting device detects a movement state of a movable carrier. The environmental detecting device includes at least one image capturing module and an operation module. The brake controlling method thereof includes receive the movement state detected by the state detecting device, and deriving an operating distance based on the movement state with the operation module; capture the environmental image with the image capturing module; determine whether there is an obstruction within the operating distance based on the environmental image; automatically actuate the braking device with the emergency brake controlling device when there is the obstruction within the operating distance in the environmental image, thereby to stop the movable carrier within the operating distance.
VEHICLE IMAGING DEVICE, VEHICLE IMAGING DISPLAY SYSTEM, AND VEHICLE
A vehicle imaging device for displaying an image of the outside of a vehicle on a display unit used in the vehicle includes an imaging unit that is attached to the vehicle, images of the outside of the vehicle, and outputs an imaging signal; an image signal generation unit that performs a generation process of generating an image signal indicating an image to be displayed in each line of the display unit based on the imaging signal, and outputs the image signal to the display unit; and a timing control unit that controls a timing when the image signal generation unit outputs the image signal to the display unit.
OBJECT DETECTION SYSTEM
A vehicular object detection system includes a camera and a lidar. With the camera mounted at a windshield of a vehicle, and with the lidar mounted at an exterior portion of the vehicle, and based at least in part on processing of image data captured by the camera and lidar data captured by the lidar, a plurality of individual objects present exterior of the vehicle are detected. Based at least in part on processing of captured image data and captured lidar data, (i) respective proximity relative to the vehicle of individual objects is determined, (ii) respective speed relative to the vehicle of individual objects is determined and (iii) respective location relative to the vehicle of individual objects is determined. Based at least in part on processing of captured image data and/or processing of captured lidar data, the system determines collision potential between the vehicle and an individual object.
VEHICLE VISION SYSTEM WITH MASTER-SLAVE CAMERA CONFIGURATION
A vision system of a vehicle includes a plurality of cameras disposed at a vehicle and having a field of view exterior of the vehicle. A display device is operable to display images for viewing by a driver of the vehicle. The plurality of cameras includes a master camera and at least one slave camera. The at least one slave camera communicates a signal to the master slave camera representative of image data captured by the at least one slave camera. The master camera includes an image signal processor for processing image data captured by at least the master camera. The master camera includes a view generator operable to generate images for display by the display device, with the generated images derived from image data captured by the master camera and the signal communicated by the at least one slave camera.
