    摘要: An extraneous-matter removing apparatus according to an embodiment includes a connector, a detector, and a removal unit. The connector is connected with a branch wire branching from a camera wire. The camera wire transmits a start-up signal for starting up a camera provided outside of a vehicle. The detector detects the start-up signal flowing through the branch wire connected with the connector. The removal unit performs, when the detector detects the start-up signal, a removing operation of an extraneous matter attached to the camera.

    摘要: A power supply monitoring apparatus includes: a plurality of power supplies that are connected in series; and a capacitor that is connected to each of positive and negative electrodes of the plurality of power supplies via a plurality of switch elements. The power supply monitoring apparatus determines states of the plurality of switch elements, using a voltage value of the capacitor that is acquired when a first switch element of the plurality of switch elements is turned on, the first switch element being connected to one of a total negative-electrode side and a total positive-electrode side of the plurality of power supplies.

    摘要: Even if a problem has occurred with respect to a multimedia micro-computer that generates a composite image including guiding lines, while a gearshift of a vehicle is in reverse, a reset process is not performed for the multimedia micro-computer. The reset process is performed after the gearshift is determined to have moved from reverse.

    摘要: An electric storage apparatus according to one aspect of an embodiment includes a battery unit, a determination unit, a virtual processing unit, and a connection controlling unit. The battery unit includes storage batteries to be connected in parallel. The determination unit determines, when the battery unit is started up, a startup type indicating a discharge start or a charge start. The virtual processing unit generates connection orders. Each of the connection orders is obtained by virtually and sequentially connecting in parallel storage batteries, of the storage batteries, having potential differences within a predetermined range so as to equalize electric potentials of the storage batteries. The connection controlling unit selects, among from the connection orders, a connection order in which the equalized electric potential is an electric potential according to the startup type determined by the determination unit, so as to connect in parallel the storage batteries.
