Abstract: A motion manager that is mounted on a vehicle includes a processor and a memory. The processor receives a motion request that corresponds to an application from individual applications. The processor arbitrates the received motion request. The processor generates, based on an arbitration result, an instruction value of an operation request to be output to a brake control unit. The memory stores, in advance, type information of an actuator to be controlled by the brake control unit. The processor generates the instruction value of the operation request using the type information.

Abstract: A motion manager mounted on a vehicle includes a processor. The processor receives, from an application that has determined that another object will collide with the vehicle, a motion request indicating that an additional braking force is needed, when the vehicle is stopped. The processor generates an instruction value for causing a brake device to generate a greater braking force than before the motion request is received, when the motion request indicating that the additional braking force is needed is received.

The board base includes a first surface to be on an interior side of a vehicle and a second surface to be on an exterior side of the vehicle when the vehicle interior component is installed in the vehicle. The board base includes a component mounting portion including a through hole extending through the board base and openings in the first surface and the second surface. The skin covers the first surface of the board base and includes flaps and a communication hole. The flaps are folded along an inner peripheral wall of the component mounting portion.

Abstract: An inspection system is provided that can calculate highly accurate data for inspection having a high S/N ratio with high freedom. In order to attain this, an imaging timing is adjusted to synchronize a time for a projected image of an object to move by “m” pixels (“m” is an integer number greater than or equal to 1) in the X-axis direction on imaging elements, with an imaging time interval, and partial image data imaged at the identical inspection position on the object is specified from each unit of two-dimensional image data based on the object appearing deviated by “m” pixels in the X-axis direction in each unit of the two-dimensional image data imaged at each of the imaging timings, and data for inspection in which a noise reducing processing is conducted at the inspection position is produced based on each section of the partial image data.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to apply a phase shift method to a workpiece having a rough surface to accurately detect an abnormal concave-convex irregularity. Therefore, in an inspecting system of the present invention, an image of a stripe pattern reflected on an inspection target surface is detected at a shallow angle, and one or more continuous unit stripes of a unit stripes reflected image is specified among the stripe pattern reflected images existing in a predetermined distance range counted from the edge in a closer side to the workpiece. Then, the phase of the specified unit stripes reflected image is varied to apply a phase shift method and scan the inspection target surface with the unit stripes reflected image to thereby detect the abnormal concave-convex irregularity.

Abstract: To provide estimating apparatus and method of the optical distortion of light transmitted through a transparent plate-shaped body. Upon picking-up a grid pattern via a glass plate by an image pickup device, 4n±? CCD pixels correspond to n grids (pair of a bright portion and a dark portion), thereby generating ? moire fringes. Sine waves with a phase A and sine waves with a phase B deviated from the phase A by 90° are generated based on gray data of the picked-up image in this state. A phase angle at each pixel on the Lissajous figure is calculated based on the sine waves with the phases A and B, and the refractive power is calculated based on a phase angular speed, serving as the difference between the phase angles of the pixels.

Abstract: There are provided a method and apparatus capable of conveniently and rapidly inspecting a warpage of a rod. A rod to be inspected is rolled down an inspection bed and light shielded by the downwardly rolling rod is detected by a line sensor as a one-dimensional image signal. A positional fluctuation value of the downwardly rolling rod is obtained from a two-dimensional image signal obtained from the one-dimensional image signal. Based on the positional fluctuation value, the degree of the warpage of the rod is determined. The shielded light signal is detected in the vicinity of one end of the downwardly rolling rod to be inspected.

Abstract: In an optical monitor for monitoring signal lights from a plurality of optical fibers, emission surfaces of the plurality of optical fibers are arranged along a straight line, and a photodetecting surface of a photodetecting element disposed so as to face the emission surfaces is moved in parallel to the straight line along which the emission surfaces are arranged in such manner that light from each of the emission surfaces is received by the photodetecting element, so that the plurality of signal lights are made incident on the photodetecting element successively. The present optical monitor thereby is capable of monitoring a large number of transmission paths while requiring a small number of components.
