  • Patent number: 11788881
    Abstract: A detection sensor according to an aspect of the invention includes a vibratable film constituted by a piezoelectric film, a case accommodating the vibratable film, and a circuit board. The vibratable film is configured to be irradiated with infrared rays and thereby generate first electric signals through a pyroelectric effect, and configured to be vibrated by sound waves and thereby generate second electric signals through a piezoelectric effect. The case includes a transmissive part. The transmissive part is configured to transmit at least infrared rays and disposed on one side in a first direction relative to the vibratable film to face the vibratable film. The first direction is a thickness direction of the vibratable film. The circuit board is fixed to the case and disposed on the other side in the first direction relative to the vibratable film. The circuit board has a sound hole to input therethrough sound waves.

  • Publication number: 20220297665
    Abstract: A motor control system includes an MG, a battery, an SMR, and an MG-ECU. The MG-ECU is configured to control the MG in accordance with an instruction provided through communication. The MG-ECU is configured to execute autonomous power generation control of the MG in an event of a fault in the communication. The autonomous power generation control is control in which the MG-ECU causes the MG to generate a predetermined voltage not in accordance with the instruction. The MG-ECU is configured to, when a fault is detected in the communication, start the autonomous power generation control after the SMR has finished switching from an off state to an on state.
