Abstract: An on-vehicle alarm generation method and an on-vehicle alarm generation apparatus for notifying a driver to be aware of safe driving by detecting a passerby or a bicycle moving at a dangerous point and generating an alarm to the driver are provided. In one aspect, the on-vehicle alarm generation method for detecting a passerby and generating an alarm to a driver includes the steps of including a dangerous driving point in map data and detecting the vehicle position; monitoring whether the vehicle approaches the dangerous driving point; transmitting a searching signal when the vehicle approaches the dangerous driving point; monitoring whether, in response to the searching signal, a responsive signal is received from a mobile device carried by the passerby; and generating an alarm to the driver upon receiving the responsive signal.

Abstract: A tape cassette lid opening device for a magnetic recording tape driving apparatus provided with a tape cassette loading section for receiving a tape cassette and a capstan projecting from the bottom surface of said tape cassette loading section, comprises a tape cassette lid and a tape cassette lid opening mechanism. The tape cassette lid is pivotally mounted on the magnetic recording tape driving apparatus and is pivotable between a first position, in which the tape cassette lid covers the tape cassette loading section, and a second position, in which the tape cassette lid permits the loading of said tape cassette into the tape cassette loading section and unloading of the tape cassette from the tape cassette loading section. The tape cassette lid opening mechanism includes a motor which causes the pivotal motion of the tape cassette lid from said first position to said second position by means of the driving force of the motor.
