Abstract: A road inspection system includes: an inspection determination part that determines, regarding road segments, each of which is a unit obtained by dividing an inspection target road, a need for inspection for the individual road segment; a control part that controls, based on the need for inspection for the individual road segment, measurement of a road surface state(s) of the road performed by a measurement vehicle that is capable of measuring the road surface state(s) or transmission of measured data obtained by the measurement; and a road surface inspection part that analyzes measured data received from the measurement vehicle and performs inspection.

Abstract: A vehicle-mounted apparatus comprises a measurement part capable of measuring, by means of a sensor, a road surface state in which a vehicle travels, a band evaluation part that evaluates a network band between it and a server at a transmission destination of measurement data of the road surface state, an importance calculation part that calculates importance of the measurement data based on a predetermined importance determination policy, a transmission part capable of transmitting the measurement data to the server, and a control part that controls transmission of the measurement data to the server by the transmission part based on evaluation of the network band and the importance of the measurement data.

Abstract: An on-vehicle apparatus includes an abnormal section determination part that determines a road section having a road surface on which an abnormality is probably present, based on an output value of a sensor mounted on a vehicle, an image selection part that selects an image(s) including the determined road section from a plurality of images shot at predetermined time intervals by a camera mounted on the vehicle, and a transmission part that is able to transmit the selected image(s) to a predetermined server.

Abstract: A data collection apparatus, including: a data reception part that receives sensor data from a vehicle capable of photographing a road surface, the sensor data being acquired by a sensor mounted on the vehicle; and a control part that evaluates a goodness degree of a road surface photographing environment on a basis of the sensor data and control a transmission from the vehicle of a road surface photographed image on a basis of the goodness degree of the road surface photographing environment.

Abstract: A steering assistance control apparatus to be applied to a vehicle includes a detection unit and a correction unit. The detection unit is configured to detect a road surface cant of a road on which the vehicle is traveling. The correction unit is configured to correct a steering target steering-wheel angle in a steering control system, on the basis of a steering characteristic value for each of left steering and right steering and the road surface cant detected by the detection unit. The steering characteristic value indicates a steering characteristic for each combination of a traveling speed and the road surface cant.

Abstract: Provided is a polymer composition having satisfactory processability and suitable for producing tires having a highly excellent balance among low loss characteristics, wet gripping, and ozone resistance. This polymer composition comprises: (A) a conjugated diene-based polymer which is either a polymer of a conjugated diene compound or a copolymer of a conjugated diene compound and an aromatic vinyl compound, the conjugated diene-based polymer being a reaction product between an active polymerization terminal and a compound represented by any of general formulas (1) to (4); and (B) a halogenated butyl elastomer.

Abstract: A steering assistance control apparatus to be applied to a vehicle includes a detection unit and a correction unit. The detection unit is configured to detect a road surface cant of a road on which the vehicle is traveling. The correction unit is configured to correct steering target torque in a steering control system, on the basis of a steering characteristic value for each of left steering and right steering and the road surface cant detected by the detection unit. The steering characteristic value indicates a steering characteristic for each combination of a traveling speed and the road surface cant.
