In a vehicle traveling simulation system, a multimedia device has at least a test target function among in-vehicle media functions. An activation device activates the multimedia device. A plurality of external terminal devices is respectively provided at different positions from the multimedia device. A data acquisition unit of the activation device is able to acquire vehicle state data simulating a vehicle state when a vehicle is traveling from the plurality of external terminal devices. An input unit inputs, to the multimedia device, activation data corresponding to the vehicle state data. The multimedia device is activated based on the input activation data.

An equipment inspection system receives data captured by a sensor of an autonomous vehicle (AV). The captured data describes a current state of equipment for servicing the AV. The equipment inspection system compares the captured data to a model describing an expected state of the equipment. The equipment inspection system determines, based on the comparison, that the equipment differs from the expected state. The equipment inspection system may transmit data describing the current state of the equipment to an equipment manager. The equipment manager may schedule maintenance for the equipment based on the current state of the equipment.

A circuit device includes an image processing circuit and a comparison circuit. The image processing circuit performs a first mapping process and a first rotation process on an input image to generate an image for a head up display. The image processing circuit performs, on an image, a second mapping process that is a reverse mapping process of the first mapping process and a second rotation process that is a reverse rotation process of the first rotation process to generate an image. The comparison circuit performs a comparison between the image and the image and outputs a result of the comparison as information for detecting an error in the image.

A head-up display (HUD), includes an imaging unit, an optical element, which is suitable for deflecting the radiation of the imaging unit in the direction of a windshield and thereby irradiating an HUD region of the windshield in order to generate a virtual image, a positioning device, which is suitable for fixing the windshield in a defined arrangement relative to the optical element, and a camera unit, which is suitable for capturing the virtual image through the windshield from different eye positions, wherein the optical element is configured such that the entire virtual image lies within the depth of field range of the camera unit.
