Abstract: A driving control device receives power supply from an accessory battery to operate, controls automatic driving, and outputs a control signal. A steering ECU, a power ECU and a brake ECU instruct a steering mechanism, a PCU and a brake to operate based on the control signal, respectively. An emergency stop switch is operated by an operator. In a case where the emergency stop switch is operated, an interface processing device cuts off a switch to stop the power supply, shuts down the driving control device, and outputs a control signal that causes the steering mechanism, the PCU and the brake to perform an emergency stop operation.

Abstract: An autonomous vehicle is provided with a touch panel that enables an operator to input vehicle speed control instructions during an automatic driving mode and a mechanical operation unit for inputting driving control instructions. When the driving mode of the autonomous vehicle is the automatic driving mode or a semi-automatic driving mode, a driving control unit of the autonomous vehicle prioritizes a vehicle speed control instruction input from the touch panel over a vehicle speed control instruction input from the mechanical operation unit and executes vehicle speed control for the autonomous vehicle based on the prioritized instruction.

Abstract: A division bar that divides a front or rear windshield into an upper windshield and a lower windshield is provided, and the upper windshield is more fragile than the lower windshield.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a control unit. The control unit is configured to execute: outputting, when detecting or estimating travel inability of an own vehicle, information regarding a request for receiving an article provided from another vehicle to avoid the travel inability. The control unit performs, when determining that a request vehicle outputs the information regarding the request, a prescribed process for providing an article corresponding to the request to the request vehicle.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing device including a controlling portion configured to execute: acquisition of information about a through-point corresponding to a selection object selected by a user terminal from among selection objects installable in a movable body in a base state; acquisition of information about a destination output from the user terminal as a point where a user observes the movable body in a state where the selection object selected by the user terminal is installed; and generation of a navigation command so as to move the movable body to the destination after the selection object selected by the user terminal is installed in the movable body by causing the movable body to drop in at the through-point.

Abstract: A sensor lamp unit is attached to an automatic drive vehicle. The sensor lamp unit includes a turn lamp portion in which a turn lamp is built in, a lidar portion in which a lidar which is an active type sensor device is built in, and a camera portion in which a camera which is a passive type sensor device is built in. The turn lamp portion, the lidar portion, and the camera portion are aligned in an up-and-down direction. The sensor lamp unit is attached on left and right side walls of the automatic drive vehicle, in an outward orientation.

Abstract: A vehicle that is able to travel autonomously includes a control unit configured to perform: stopping a first service and executing a second service of emergency support when the emergency has occurred during execution of the first service; and executing movement to a predetermined position associated with the second service. An information processing device includes a control unit configured to perform: detecting occurrence of an emergency; and instructing a vehicle, which is able to travel autonomously and which is located in a predetermined range including an area in which the emergency has occurred, to stop a first service which is being executed and to execute a second service of emergency support.

Abstract: A vehicle seat is fixed to a B pillar disposed in front of a door provided on a side surface of a vehicle, and constructed to be foldable.

Abstract: A touch panel of an automatic driving vehicle includes a SLOW DOWN button. An operator is able to operate the SLOW DOWN button while the vehicle is running in the automatic driving mode to apply different deceleration controls using a first operation, or a long press, and a second operation, or a short press. For example, when a long press is applied, the automatic driving vehicle completes deceleration at time t4, or a time immediately after time t3 at which the long press operation is completed. In contrast, when a short press is applied, the automatic driving vehicle completes deceleration after the elapse of a relatively long period after completion of the short press.
