Elevated height wheelchair
The present disclosure includes methods of operating a wheelchair configured to reposition an occupant between a lowered and a raised position. The wheelchair can include a frame, a seat moveable relative to the frame, a drive wheel, one or more pairs of arm assemblies, and one or more sensors. The arm assembly includes a wheel configured to move from a first spatial location when the wheelchair is operating on flat, level ground to a second spatial location that is different than the first spatial location. Arm limiters can selectively engage the arm assembly based on at least one of a seat position, position of the arm assembly, and surface conditions of ground surface. The arm limiters can limit the range of motion of the arm assembly and sometimes other operational aspects of the chair. The methods adjust the maximum operational speed of the wheelchair when the seat is in an elevated position based on sensor data relating to one or more of the arm limiter position and the position of the frame.

VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE, VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM
A vehicle control device includes: a processor, the processor being configured to: acquire position information regarding a preceding vehicle traveling ahead of a host vehicle; and control a reaction force application mechanism based on a vehicle spacing in a vehicle width direction between the host vehicle and the preceding vehicle, the reaction force application mechanism being configured to apply a reaction force to an accelerator pedal.

VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE, VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM ON WHICH A PROGRAM IS STORED
A vehicle control device includes: a processor, wherein the processor is configured to control a reaction force application mechanism, which applies reaction force to an accelerator pedal, based on a predetermined driving operation by a driver. In this way, not only is the reaction force application mechanism controlled on the basis of the inter-vehicle distance between the host vehicle and the preceding vehicle, but also, the reaction force that is applied to the accelerator pedal is changed while taking a predetermined driving operation by the driver into consideration.

Driving assistance control device
A driving assistance control device includes an active pedal configured to control a driving and braking force of a vehicle, an electronic control unit configured to detect a potential risk area in which an obstacle entering a scheduled traveling route of the vehicle is likely to be present, and determine a reference speed at which contact between the vehicle and the obstacle can be avoided even when the obstacle enters the scheduled traveling route of the vehicle from the detected potential risk area based on a positional relationship between the vehicle and the potential risk area, and a force feedback unit configured to apply an assistance reaction force in a direction in which the amount of manipulation is reduced, to the active pedal when a current speed of the vehicle exceeds the reference speed.
Work vehicle
A work vehicle includes a first actuator driving a differential lock device, a second actuator driving the drive-wheel switchover device, a first operational tool for operating driving of the first actuator, a second operational tool for operating driving of the second actuator and a control device. The control device includes a first driving section configured to drive the first actuator in response to a manual operation on the first operational tool and a second driving section configured to drive the second actuator in response to a manual operation on the second operational tool.
