摘要:
A map data processing unit includes a batch update section and dynamic update section. A type of update data fed from an update data input section is decided using header information. If the update data is route search data, the batch update section collectively updates all the map data to latest version map data according to the update data from the update data input section. If the update data is not the route search data, the dynamic update section updates the map data to the latest version map data according to the update data every time the map data becomes necessary. Thus performing the collective or dynamic update according to the type of the update data enables the update to the latest map data without affecting the operation speed of a navigation function, with minimizing the time precluding the use of the navigation function.

For map data, a road system is represented by using node data, which is information concerning nodes representing points along a road, and link data, which is information concerning a link representing a road between the points. A link row is a series of links representing a series of roads in a road system, and as link row data, link data for the links that constitute the link row are arranged in the order in which the links are connected. The node data for the individual nodes of the road system are provided separately from the link row data, and to identify nodes, node identifiers are provided for the nodes of the road system. The link data includes information indicating a node identifier for a node that is located at one link end defined in the direction of the link row.

摘要:
A driver photographing apparatus that photographs images from reflections on the retinas of a driver in a vehicle having disturbance light using signal processing techniques. The apparatus comprises a light source for illuminating the driver with a first light beam along a first optical path, and a sensor that inputs a second light beam, along a second optical path, that includes reflections from the driver and disturbance light, to form an image of the driver. The light source and the sensor are disposed such that the first and second optical paths are along substantially the same axis. The apparatus further includes a processing circuit that eliminates the effect of the disturbance light on the image of the driver, and a detecting circuit that determines the action of the driver based on the driver's image.

An object of the present invention is to provide an on-vehicle information processing device that is capable of sufficiently calling attention of a driver of an own vehicle. The on-vehicle information processing device according to the present invention includes: an other-vehicle position detector that detects a position of another vehicle existing in a vicinity of an own vehicle; a communication unit that acquires, via communication, other-vehicle information including driver dynamic information from the other vehicle whose position is detected by the other-vehicle position detector, the driver dynamic information indicating a current state of activity of a driver of the other vehicle; and a controller that controls calling attention of a driver of the own vehicle or traveling of the own vehicle based on the driver dynamic information acquired by the communication unit.
