  • Patent number: 11124227
    Abstract: A steering control device (ECU) comprises a base assist unit for generating a basic assist torque and a steering torque correction unit. The steering torque correction unit outputs a corrected steering torque, which is decreasingly corrected so that an absolute value becomes smaller than an absolute value of a steering torque when a viscous load is requested to be applied to a driver by decreasing the assist torque. The base assist unit includes a target steering torque calculation unit and a servo controller. The target steering torque calculation unit calculates the target steering torque based on a steering torque. The servo controller calculates the basic assist torque to cause the corrected steering torque to follow the target steering torque.

  • Patent number: 11054721
    Abstract: Provided are an imaging device capable of assisting focusing without giving uncomfortable feeling, a focusing assistance method thereof, and a focusing assistance program thereof. In a case where manual focusing is assisted by moving an image sensor, a focus adjustment speed by an imaging lens is detected. In a case where the focus adjustment speed by the imaging lens is reduced to a threshold value or less, the assistance is started by moving the image sensor. At this time, a focusing assistance unit is brought into an in-focus state by controlling the movement of the image sensor such that the sum of the focus adjustment speed by the imaging lens and a focus adjustment speed by the movement of the image sensor is set to a speed equal to or less than the threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20210072392
    Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide a method for processing surrounding information which enables improvement of accuracy for estimation of a current position of a moving body. A current position of a moving body can be estimated with information after removal by acquiring surrounding information with a sensor in a surrounding information acquisition step, removing information of a feature including light transparent information from the surrounding information and thereby generating the information after removal. Here, the estimation accuracy can be improved by omitting the information about the light transparent region for which the acquired information may vary.
