    摘要: A vehicle drive assist apparatus includes: a traveling environment information acquirer that acquires information on an area around a vehicle; an orientation detector that detects a face orientation or a line of sight of a driver; a projector that projects a course image indicating a vehicle's turning direction onto a road surface ahead of the vehicle; and a controller that sets the course image and controls the projector. The controller detects a driver's turn signal operation. Upon detecting the turn signal operation, the controller estimates a vehicle's turn position based on the face orientation or a direction of the line of sight. Upon determining, based on the information, that the turn position is not the intersection, the controller calculates a distance from the vehicle to the turn position based on the information, and set the course image indicating the turn position of the vehicle based on the distance.

    摘要: A vehicle traveling control apparatus includes a sensor and a traveling control processor configured to function as an identification unit and a tentative identification calculation unit. The identification unit identifies whether the target detected by the sensor is a ghost or a real object based on results of the detection for first number of measurement cycles, and if the target is the real object and a possibility that the target and the vehicle come into contact with each other is present, causes a first traveling control to be executed. The tentative identification calculation unit determines whether the target is the ghost or the real object based on results of the detection for second number of measurement cycles, and when the target is the ghost and the possibility is present, causes a second traveling control to be executed. The second number is less than the first number.

    摘要: A driving assist device includes, a traveling environment information acquisition unit, an intersection determination unit, a vehicle position information acquisition unit, a predicted travel path setting unit, a blinker signal acquisition unit, a traffic division information acquisition unit, a determination unit, and a notifier. The determination unit determines whether directions indicated by three factors of traffic division information acquired by the traffic division information acquisition unit; a blinker signal acquired by the blinker signal acquisition unit, and a predicted travel path predicted by the predicted travel path setting unit match each other. When the determination unit determines that directions indicated by two factors of the three factors match each other and a mismatch occurs between the directions indicated by the two factors and a direction indicated by a remaining factor of the three factors, the notifier issues a notification about the mismatch of the direction indicated by the remaining factor.

    摘要: An image processing apparatus includes a detector, a grouping processor, a management unit, and a determination unit. The detector detects traffic signals on the basis of a captured image. The grouping processor performs a grouping process of causing each of the detected traffic signals to belong to any one of groups. The management unit manages a location and display information of the each of the detected traffic signals in association with the group to which the each of the traffic signals belongs, and thereby manages the traffic signals. The determination unit determines, for each of the groups, a representative location and representative display information of one or more traffic signals belonging to relevant one of the groups, among the traffic signals, on the basis of the location and display information of each of the one or more traffic signals belonging to the relevant one of the groups.
