Abstract: A driving operation handover system includes a memory and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to: acquire a first characteristic value of preset setting characteristics during travel of a vehicle equipped with a manual operation unit that an occupant operates; acquire a second characteristic value of the preset setting characteristics during travel of a virtual vehicle that simulates the vehicle, which a remote operator operates using a remote operation unit; calculate a difference value between the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value; in a case in which the difference value is lower than a setting threshold value, notify the occupant and the remote operator that operation of the vehicle can be handed over; and after notification, switch operation of the vehicle from one of the remote operator or the occupant to another of the remote operator or the occupant.

Abstract: A remote operation system includes a processor that is configured to acquire position information and communication quality information from each of plural vehicles on a regular basis, create position-specific communication quality information in which the position information and the communication quality information are associated with each other, supply the position-specific communication quality information to an operator of a remote operation target vehicle.

Abstract: A component manufacturing method includes: disposing, in a fluid, an unprocessed component having a hole that has an opening in an outer surface of the unprocessed component; creating a flow of the fluid such that air bubbles resulting from laser peening performed by irradiating an inner wall of the hole of the unprocessed component with a laser beam in the fluid flow along the hole; setting an irradiation area of the laser beam in an inner surface of the hole; and in the fluid of which the flow has been created, irradiating the irradiation area with the laser beam from the side of the outer surface through the opening.

Abstract: A manufacturing method for a shaft 1 by imparting a residual compressive stress to an inner surface 4p of the lateral hole 4 of the workpiece 2 includes a disposing step and an irradiation step. In the disposing step, a lateral-hole mirror 14a is disposed inside the lateral hole 4. In the irradiation step, a laser beam L is emitted from one of an inner-side opening 4a and an outer-side opening 4b of the lateral hole 4 toward the lateral-hole mirror 14a, making the laser beam L reflect on the lateral-hole mirror 14a, and thereby applying the laser beam L to the inner surface 4p of the lateral hole 4.

Abstract: A first processor provided in a manual operation device of a vehicle, a second processor provided in a remote operation device transmits operator information to the manual operation device and receives occupant information. The first processor notifies an occupant of the received operator information, and determines whether an operator can be authenticated by the occupant. The second processor notifies the operator of the received occupant information, and determines whether or not the occupant can be authenticated by the operator. The third processor permits switching of driving operation from one to another of the manual operation device and the remote operation device only in a case in which the operator has been determined authenticable by the first processor and the occupant has been determined authenticable by the second processor.

Abstract: A remote operation system including a processor that is configured to acquire position information and communication quality information from each of a plurality of vehicles, on a regular basis, create position-specific communication quality information in which the position information and the communication quality information are associated with each other, create communication-prioritized route information representing a route linking together positions where communication quality is a predetermined value or greater, and also to create time-prioritized route information representing a route with a shorter journey time to a destination than the communication-prioritized route, supply the communication-prioritized route information and the time-prioritized route information to an occupant of a remote operation target vehicle, instruct a remote operation station of a selected route selected, and execute a countermeasure enabling travel stability to be maintained at a position where communication quality is be

Abstract: A remote driving system has a manual operation section, an automatic operation section, an input section, and a remote driving terminal control section. The manual operation section is provided at a remote operation section that remotely drives a vehicle, and manual operation of the vehicle by a remote driver is carried out. The automatic operation section is provided at the remote operation section, and carries out automatic driving of the vehicle on the basis of information of a traveling state that is sensed by a vehicle sensing section. In a case in which the operator information is inputted to the input section, the remote driving terminal control section carries out control that switches driving operation of the vehicle from the manual operation section to the automatic operation section.
