Abstract: Data transmission systems and methods. In one embodiment, a data transmission system includes a plurality of imaging devices, a plurality of control devices, and an information processing device. One of the plurality of control devices operates as a master control device and a remainder of the plurality of control devices operate as client control devices. The information processing device is configured to transmit an acquisition request for one or more images captured by a first imaging device of the plurality of imaging devices to the master control device. The master control device is configured to transfer the acquisition request to one of the client control devices that controls the first imaging device. In response to receiving the acquisition request, the one of the client control devices is configured to transfer a list of images captured by the first imaging device to the information processing device.

Abstract: A checkout system includes a mobile point-of-sale (POS) apparatus and a server. The mobile POS apparatus includes a code reader, a user interface, a display, a wireless communication interface, and a processor. The processor controls the wireless communication interface to transmit a product code read by the code reader and a settlement instruction based on a user operation on the user interface. The server is configured to generate a data record including the product code and transmit a settlement request to a settlement server upon receiving the settlement instruction. If a settlement non-completion response is received from the settlement server, the server stores transaction data including a first identifier indicating the settlement request and a second identifier indicating the transaction data in a database and causes the display of the mobile POS apparatus to display a code symbol representing the second identifier.

Abstract: A cell equalization system includes: a battery including a plurality of chargeable cells connected in series and mounted on a vehicle; a battery ECU configured to control the battery; an equalization circuit configured to perform equalization of remaining capacity variation of the plurality of cells; and an equalization control unit configured to control the equalization circuit. The battery ECU is configured to calculate the remaining capacity variation at startup of ECU in which the battery ECU changes from a sleep state to a startup state. The cell equalization system is configured to execute first equalization processing for performing the equalization when the battery ECU is in the startup state, and second equalization processing for performing the equalization when the battery ECU is in the sleep state.

Abstract: A vehicle heat management system includes a refrigerant circuit, a heating circuit, and a battery temperature regulation circuit. The refrigerant circuit circulates a refrigerant to regulate a temperature inside a passenger compartment through the refrigerant circuit. The heating circuit circulates a liquid that exchanges heat with the refrigerant through the heating circuit. The heating circuit regulates the temperature inside the passenger compartment. The battery temperature regulation circuit regulates a temperature of a battery by introducing a liquid that exchanges heat with the refrigerant to the battery.

Abstract: A vehicle controller controls a vehicle including an engine and an automatic transmission. The vehicle controller includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit estimates power generable by the engine based on a condition of the engine and a condition of the automatic transmission in a non-driving range, calculates a load on the automatic transmission in a driving range based on a condition of the automatic transmission in the driving range, determines whether a difference between the power and the load is equal to or smaller than a predetermined threshold by which an engine stall is identifiable, and limits a gear shift request from the non-driving range to the driving range when the difference is equal to or smaller than the predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A checkout system includes a mobile terminal configured to acquire a commodity code for identifying a commodity. The checkout system further includes a controller configured to acquire a first amount indicating an amount payable by an electronic settlement procedure and display, on a display, a first screen for determining whether settlement is performed through the electronic settlement based on whether the first amount is equal to or greater than a second amount, which is a total amount of the commodity based on the commodity code.

Abstract: A checkout system includes a mobile point-of-sale (POS) apparatus and a server. The mobile POS apparatus includes a beacon receiver, an operation panel, a wireless communication interface, and a processor configured to control the wireless communication interface to transmit a first signal indicating a particular user operation has been performed on the operation panel and a second signal indicating that the beacon receiver is receiving a beacon signal. The server is configured to perform a checkout operation upon receiving the first signal, while the second signal is also being received.

Abstract: In an electric vehicle including a motor for traveling, when an accelerator is switched from an on-state to an off-state, the motor is controlled such that a vehicle torque is varied more gradually toward a requested torque on a brake side (requested torque in the off-state) in turning than in traveling straight. Thereby, when the accelerator is switched from the on-state to the off-state in turning, drivability of the driver can be restrained from deteriorating.

Abstract: A checkout system includes a plurality of cart-mountable point-of-sale (POS) apparatuses and a server. Each of the cart-mountable POS apparatuses includes a user interface, a wireless communication interface, and a processor. The processor controls the wireless communication interface to transmit login information including a customer ID obtained via the user interface and a terminal ID for the cart-mountable POS apparatus. The server generates a first data record associated with a first customer ID and a first terminal ID, upon receiving first login formation from a first cart-mountable POS apparatus system. And upon receiving second login formation from a second cart-mountable POS apparatus after generation of the first data record, associates the first data record with a second terminal ID rather than with the first terminal ID.
