Abstract: A display and voice output control system of a vehicle on which automated driving is performed includes a display device, a voice output device and a controller. The controller controls a notification of a recommended behavior by the display device and the voice output device. In the notification control, it is judged whether or not a notification condition of the recommended behavior is satisfied. If it is judged that the notification condition is satisfied, it is judged whether a notification relaxation condition of the recommended behavior is satisfied based on a status of a driver and a driving status of the vehicle. If it is judged that the notification relaxation conditions is satisfied, relaxation notification processing is executed. Otherwise, normal notification processing is executed. In the relaxation notification processing, an output status of the recommended behavior in the voice output device is controlled to an inactive state.

Abstract: A control device for a vehicle is configured to request that a driver grip a steering wheel at the time of a predetermined driving scene, judge whether a steering wheel grip status is a one-handed grip status or a two-handed grip status, and judge based on the steering wheel grip status whether the status is a grip completion status where the steering wheel has finished being gripped. The control device is further configured to change whether to judge the status is a grip completion status if at least a one-handed grip status or to judge whether the status is a grip completion status only if a two-handed grip status in accordance with the driving scene.

Abstract: A travel controller performs driving control of a vehicle at an autonomous driving level that is a first autonomous driving level in which a driver of the vehicle is not obligated to watch or a second autonomous driving level in which the driver is obligated to watch; notifies, for a predetermined period, the driver of a request for driving the vehicle or taking a driving posture allowing for the driving, when the autonomous driving level of the driving control changes from the first autonomous driving level to the second autonomous driving level; and determines an attention level of the driver, based on an output of a sensor provided for the vehicle. The attention level is a level of attention to driving. The travel controller further modifies the predetermined period so as to be shorter when the determined attention level is high than when the attention level is low.

Abstract: The vehicle controller includes a processor configured to determine whether a behavior of a driver of the vehicle satisfies a predetermined enabling condition after execution of a function of automatically stopping the vehicle. The function is executed due to not satisfying a driver-related condition for continuing the automated driving control of the vehicle. The enabling condition relates to driving control of the vehicle and is not imposed before the execution of the function. The processor is further configured to perform the automated driving control of the vehicle only when the behavior of the driver satisfies the enabling condition.

Abstract: The vehicle controller is configured to have a transition request notification unit which, when a first condition is satisfied, notifies a driver, by a first aspect, of a request of a driving transition from an autonomous driving mode in which operation by the driver during traveling is not necessary to a manual driving mode in which operation by the driver during traveling is necessary, and when a second condition, which has an urgency lower than the first condition, is satisfied, notifies the driver, by a second aspect having a lower strength than the first aspect, of the request of the driving transition, and when the driving transition has not been performed after a second aspect notification period has elapsed from the notification by the second aspect, notifies the request of the driving transition by the first aspect.

Abstract: A car sharing system includes a car sharing device installed in a vehicle. The car sharing device is configured to perform ID verification via an electronic key system of the vehicle in a state in which key information registered to the mobile terminal has been authenticated to allow an onboard device to be operated by the mobile terminal. The car sharing system includes a key function unit that implements a smart function to perform the ID verification through bidirectional short-range wireless communication with the electronic key system, a determination processing unit that determines whether or not a condition for permitting actuation of the smart function has been satisfied, and an actuation switching unit that validates the smart function if the condition for permitting actuation of the smart function has been satisfied.
