Abstract: A driving assistance apparatus includes a driving assister section, a scene determiner section, and an assignment determiner section. The driving assister section provides a driving assistance to a driver in a vehicle using a sensing result by a sensor device monitoring a periphery of the vehicle. The scene determiner section determines whether a driving scene requiring the driver to confirm safety takes place. The assignment determiner section determines an assignment of an implementation work that is to be implemented by the driver according to the driving scene when the scene determiner section determines that the driving scene requiring the driver to work takes place; the practice work precludes an exemption work from which the driving assister section exempts the driver.

Abstract: An automatic driving control device for a vehicle that includes an actuator and an information presenting unit. The actuator controls a traveling state of the vehicle. The information presenting unit notifies an occupant of the vehicle of information. The automatic driving control device is connected to actuator for communicating. The automatic driving control device causes the vehicle to automatically travel according to a predetermined traveling condition. The automatic driving control device detects, based on information acquired from an outside of the vehicle, a regulation section that has a speed limit lower than a speed limit of the traveling condition when the vehicle is automatically traveling. The automatic driving control device outputs a deceleration command to the actuator when detecting the regulation section.

Abstract: A vehicle speed management apparatus acquires scene information about a driving scene of a host vehicle, estimates the driving scene based on the scene information acquired, acquires behavior information about a driving behavior of a user, determines a driving risk of the host vehicle driven by the user, based on the driving scene estimated and on the behavior information acquired, and controls a presentation of assist information by an information presentation unit in order to prompt the user to address the driving risk. When the driving scene estimated represents an independent traveling state of the host vehicle, the assist information to be presented by the information presentation unit is selected based on a magnitude of the driving risk determined before an operation by an emergency control unit.

Abstract: A display manipulation device, which enables an operator to manipulate an image of manipulation target displayed in midair, includes a midair display device, a position identifier, and a tactile sense provider. The midair display device displays the image of manipulation target in a virtual aerial display region defined in midair. The position identifier identifies a position of a manipulation body in the aerial display region. The tactile sense provider provides tactile stimulus to the manipulation body in a non-contact manner based on the identified position of the manipulation body when the manipulation body touches the image of manipulation target. The image of manipulation target is displayed to induce a state of the manipulation body so that a high sensitivity portion of the manipulation body, which is highly sensitive to the tactile stimulus, faces a direction susceptible to the tactile stimulus provided by the tactile sense provider.

Abstract: A vehicle speed management apparatus acquires scene information about a driving scene of a host vehicle, estimates the driving scene based on the scene information acquired, acquires behavior information about a driving behavior of a user, determines a driving risk of the host vehicle driven by the user, based on the driving scene estimated and on the behavior information acquired, and controls a presentation of assist information by an information presentation unit in order to prompt the user to address the driving risk. When the driving scene estimated represents an independent traveling state of the host vehicle, the assist information to be presented by the information presentation unit is selected based on a magnitude of the driving risk determined before an operation by an emergency control unit.
