Abstract: A cargo conveying device includes: a horizontal direction conveying section that conveys cargo in a horizontal direction, and that includes a transfer section at which cargo is transferred between the transfer section and a cargo handler; a height adjusting section that adjusts a vertical direction height of the transfer section; and a control section that, at a time at a time at which cargo is transferred between the transfer section and a cargo handler, operates the height adjusting section, and adjusts the vertical direction height of the transfer section.

Abstract: An open vehicle includes a vehicle upper portion, a traveling device, an external sensor, and an ECU. The vehicle upper portion has a riding surface that forms a bottom surface of the riding space and is configured for a plurality of users to ride on. The ECU is configured to control the traveling device to cause the open vehicle to automatically travel. The ECU is configured to execute: a specific person recognition process to use the external sensor to recognize a specific person existing in an outside space; and an automatic travel control process to control the traveling device such that, when the specific person exists within a predetermined distance range, the traveling device executes at least one of moving the open vehicle away from the specific person and increasing a vehicle speed as compared to when the specific person does not exist within the range.

Abstract: A stand-up vehicle includes a vehicle upper portion, a handrail, one or more biometric information sensors, and one or more processors. The vehicle upper portion has a riding surface on which a user stands. The handrail is provided at an upper portion of the vehicle and is gripped by a user. The one or more biometric information sensors are at least one of a sensor provided on a handrail and a weight sensor provided below a riding surface and having the riding surface as a weight detection surface, and detect biometric information of the user. The one or more processors perform notification processing for notifying a user of biometric information detected by the one or more biometric information sensors.

Abstract: In a stand-up vehicle having a vehicle upper part having a riding surface configured for a user to stand on, one or more electronic control units execute emergency situation detection processing for detecting an emergency of the user when receiving notification from the user or based on information from one or more sensors, safety posture determination processing for determining whether or not the user takes a safety posture based on information from one or more sensors after detecting the emergency, and upper limit speed management processing executed when detecting the emergency and determining that the user takes the safety posture. The upper limit speed management process increases the upper limit speed to be higher than the basic upper limit speed selected when the safety posture determination process determines that the user is not in the safety posture, or cancels the upper limit speed.

Abstract: An automatic traveling vehicle includes a vehicle structure including a first top plate, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to execute a storage mode when a storage execution condition is satisfied. The storage mode includes a storage posture formation process of causing the vehicle to automatically travel so as to take a predetermined storage posture together with a counterpart automatic traveling vehicle. In the storage posture, the vehicle is in a superposition state in which the vehicle overlaps with the counterpart vehicle in a plan view, or a parallel state in which the vehicle is lined up with the counterpart vehicle while the first top plate and a second top plate of the counterpart vehicle are standing and facing each other so as to be parallel to or substantially parallel to a vertical direction.

Abstract: A control method includes: obtaining picture signals and visible light signals; deciding a luminance change pattern by modulating the visible light signals; transmitting the visible light signals by performing luminance change of LEDs included in a panel in accordance with the luminance change pattern, in a first period that is a partial period of a frame display period; correcting a second gradient indicated by the picture signals, in accordance with a first gradient that is a gradient of the luminance change pattern of the first period, in a second period that follows the first period; and lighting the LEDs at the corrected second gradient in the second period.

Abstract: To provide a linear light source device (1) arranged on a lateral surface of a light guide plate, comprising: a plurality of linear light source assemblies (3) each including an elongated substrate and a plurality of light emitting elements linearly mounted on one of main surfaces of the sub substrate; and a main substrate (2) having mounted thereon the linear light source assemblies (3). With this structure, even if the linear light source device (1) is elongated, luminance unevenness is hardly caused in planar light emitting devices and liquid crystal display devices.
