  • Publication number: 20240106276
    Abstract: A wireless power supply system includes a plurality of power transmission units that receives and supplies power to a power receiving unit via the power transmission coil in a resonance state, and a switching control unit that switches a state of a first power transmission unit to a resonance state when the magnitude of the magnetic flux generated in a first power transmission coil of the first power transmission unit, which is one of the plurality of power transmission units, is greater than a predetermined threshold value, and switches to a non-resonance state when the magnitude is less than the threshold value. The threshold is set as a magnitude that exceeds the magnetic flux generated in the first power transmission coil due to coupling between the first power transmission coil and a second power transmission coil of a second power transmission unit, which is adjacent to first power transmission coil.

  • Publication number: 20240034315
    Abstract: A surrounding environment around a vehicle is recognized and surrounding environment information is acquired. Traveling control is performed on the vehicle based on the acquired surrounding environment information. When an obstacle expected to hinder traveling of the vehicle is recognized ahead of the vehicle and other vehicles traveling ahead of the vehicle are recognized in an adjacent lane adjacent to a traveling lane where the vehicle is traveling, a movement amount of the obstacle moved due to an effect of a first other vehicle among the other vehicles that travels at a position near the obstacle is detected. An estimated movement amount of the obstacle moved due to an effect of a second other vehicle among the other vehicles that follows the first other vehicle is calculated based on the detected movement amount. The traveling control is performed on the vehicle based on the estimated movement amount.
