Abstract:
During autonomous driving of a vehicle, useful Information is presented to an occupant. An image generator in driving assistance device generates a first image representing an action the vehicle is capable of executing depending on a travel environment during autonomous driving and a second image representing a basis of the action. Image output unit outputs the first image and the second image generated by the image generator to notification device in the vehicle in association with each other. The action vehicle is capable of executing may be selected from among action candidates by a driver.
Abstract:
Provided is a technology for improving accuracy in determining the next action. Travel history generator generates, for each driver, a travel history associating an environmental parameter indicating a travel environment through which a vehicle has previously traveled with an action selected by the driver in response to the environmental parameter. Acquisition unit acquires a travel history similar to a travel history of a current driver from among travel histories generated by travel history generator. Driver model generator generates a driver model based on the travel history acquired by acquisition unit. Determination unit determines the next action based on the driver model generated by driver model generator) and an environmental parameter indicating a current travel environment of the vehicle.
Abstract:
A visual field calculation apparatus capable of accurately calculating a visual field range of a user without using a complex configuration is provided. The visual field calculation apparatus includes a saccade detector that detects a saccade on the basis of a first gaze direction detected at a first timing and a second gaze direction detected at a second timing, a saccade speed calculator that calculates speed of the saccade on the basis of a time difference between the first timing and the second timing, the first gaze direction, and the second gaze direction, and a visual field range calculator that calculates a displacement vector of a saccade whose speed exceeds a first threshold, and calculates an area including a final point of the displacement vector as the visual field range of the user.
Abstract:
A display control device includes: an input unit that receives environmental information on a vehicle; and a controller that outputs to an image generator a first control signal for generating a first specific image representing a presentation image to be displayed on a display medium. When decreasing the luminance of the presentation image based on the environmental information, the controller outputs to the image generator a second control signal for generating a second specific image representing the presentation image with a hue changed to decrease a blue component in a display color.
Abstract:
A display control device causes a display unit to generate a first predetermined image representing a first presentation image that indicates a first speed limit. Change in a speed limit of a road where a vehicle travels from a first speed limit to a second speed limit different from the first speed limit is recognized. When the recognized change in the speed limit indicates decrease, the first predetermined image is switched by a first switching method so that a second predetermined image representing a second presentation image that indicates the second speed limit is generated. When the recognized change in the speed limit indicates increase, the first predetermined image is switched by a second switching method different from the first switching method so that the second predetermined image is generated.
Abstract:
A display control device includes a determiner and a display controller. The determiner determines a recognition accuracy based on a result of a calculator. Based on a result of the determiner, the display controller controls a displayer so as to generate an image that shows a first or second graphic in which a region indicating the direction in which a predetermined object exists is displayed in a mode different from that of another region and so as to display the image on a display medium. The first graphic is generated when it is determined that the recognition accuracy is a first recognition accuracy. The second graphic is generated when it is determined that the recognition accuracy is a second recognition accuracy lower than the first recognition accuracy. A first width of the region in the first graphic is smaller than a second width of the region in the second graphic.
Abstract:
A method capable of causing a driver to recognize multiple objects to which attention should be paid without requiring sight line shift of the driver is for a video system including a recognition unit that recognizes a moving body existing in a foreground of a user and a display source that displays a certain image generated on the basis of a result of the recognition by the recognition unit on a display medium. The method includes determining whether two or more moving bodies exist in the foreground of the user on the basis of an input data from the recognition unit; and controlling the display source, if two or more moving bodies exist, so as to generate the certain image representing a virtual line directed to each of the moving bodies from a certain position or a certain axis and display the certain image on the display medium.
Abstract:
A vehicle-mounted interface device includes a receiver and a determiner. The receiver receives an input from a driver who drives a vehicle. On the basis of the input received by the receiver, the determiner determines whether or not the driver is familiar with a route along which the driver is to drive or is driving the vehicle.
Abstract:
An automation level determination section selects one of automation levels defined at a plurality of stages based on a deviation degree of reliability, the deviation degree corresponding to each of a plurality of kinds of driving behaviors that are estimation results obtained using a driving behavior model. A generator generates presentation information by applying the plurality of kinds of driving behaviors to an output template corresponding to one selected automation level in output templates corresponding to the automation levels defined at the plurality of stages respectively. An output unit outputs the presentation information that is generated.
Abstract:
The driving assistance device acquires, from an autonomous driving controller that determines an action of a vehicle during autonomous driving of the vehicle, action information indicating a first action that the vehicle is caused to execute. The driving assistance device acquires, from a detector that detects a surrounding situation and a travel state of the vehicle, detection information indicating a detection result. The driving assistance device determines a second action which is executable in place of the first action, based on the detection information. The driving assistance device generates a first image representing the first action and a second image representing the second action. The driving assistance device outputs the first image and the second image to a notification device such that the first image and the second image are displayed within a fixed field of view of a driver of the vehicle.
