An information sharing system includes: a post reception unit receiving and storing a post from a user group; a content reproduction unit outputting content of the post to a terminal device of the user; a joining request reception unit receiving a joining request regarding synchronous output of the content, from the user; and a joining mode acquisition unit acquiring specifying of a joining mode of the terminal device in the synchronous output, the content reproduction unit makes, based on a reproduction operation in the terminal device of the user from whom the joining request is received, the terminal devices of all the users from whom the joining request is received synchronously output the content, the joining mode acquisition unit establishes communication between the terminal device and equipment of a vehicle when the specifying of a driver mode is acquired as the joining mode, and outputs the content to the equipment.

INPUT ACCEPTING DEVICE, INPUT ACCEPTING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM

An input accepting device includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory. In a case in which a detected value of electrostatic capacity detected by an electrostatic sensor is greater than or equal to a first threshold value, the processor accepts operation due to contact of an operator. In a case in which a state, in which the detected value of the electrostatic capacity detected by the electrostatic sensor is greater than or equal to a second threshold value, continues for a first time period, the processor determines that there is contact by the operator. In a case in which it is determined that there is contact by the operator, the processor sets the first threshold value to a value that is greater than or equal to the second threshold value based on the detected value detected by the electrostatic sensor.

Driver assistance system in a motor vehicle

A driver assistance system is provided in a motor vehicle, which driver assistance system executes at least active transverse guidance interventions. The driver assistance system can be activated while decoupled from the activation of a longitudinal control system but can also be active both, with and without longitudinal control, and includes both a traffic jam assistance sub-function and a track guiding assistant sub-function. The two sub-functions can be jointly activated and deactivated by a single on-/off-button. The driver assistance system is characterized by a special combination of the sub-functions track guiding assistance and traffic jam assistance. They each take turns depending on the presence of conditions, which are defined differently for each sub-function.

Vehicle
20170217511 · 2017-08-03 ·

A vehicle comprising a framework in form of beam, wheel, drive and braking system, while the vehicle is partially loaded with the weigh of user and the user stands on roller skates and holds the vehicle on the beam so that the wheel is behind the user and contacts with its tire the road surface; and when the user activates the drive, the wheel starts rotating and, as a result of friction between the wheel's tire and the road surface, there arises a force making the vehicle with user move. Additionally, another technique for operation of the same vehicle is being offered, at which the vehicle on the move is positioned in the front of user.

User interface apparatus and input acquiring method

A user interface apparatus made of a grip portion which is gripped by an operator; a contact sensor which is arranged on a surface of the grip portion and which detects a contact position; a sensor information acquiring unit configured to acquire sensor information outputted from the contact sensor; and an input operation acquiring unit configured to acquire a difference between pieces of sensor information respectively acquired at different times and to determine that an input operation corresponding to a predetermined pattern has been performed when the difference conforms to the predetermined pattern.

DISPLAY DEVICE FOR VEHICLE

A display device 10 of a vehicle includes a first display section 15, a second display section 16, a steering switch 11, a vehicle speed sensor 12, and a control device 17. The first display section 15 displays at least a map. The second display section 16 displays information for operating a display content of the first display section 15. The steering switch 11 receives an operation input of an operator of the vehicle 1. The vehicle speed sensor 12 detects speed of the vehicle. The control device 17 displays information of an operation state of the steering switch 11 on the second display section 16 when the vehicle speed which is detected by the vehicle speed sensor 12 is larger than a threshold value.

Work vehicle

Regarding a work vehicle configured to include an engine mounted on a travelling machine body and an exhaust gas purification device arranged in an exhaust gas path of the engine, it is an object to prevent the regeneration control of the exhaust gas purification device from being executed against an operator's will. The work vehicle of the present invention includes a regeneration switch 329 configured to cause the regeneration control of an exhaust gas purification device 50 to be executed. First, when a cumulative drive time of an engine 5 has passed in a prescribed time or longer, a regeneration control request warning is displayed on a meter panel 246. Then, only when a regeneration switch 329 is manually operated by an operator after the display of the regeneration control request warning on the meter panel 246, the regeneration control of the exhaust gas purification device 50 is started.
