Abstract: A sensor system includes a sensor element, a signal processing circuit, and a pseudo-signal correction circuit. The sensor element outputs an electric signal corresponding to an external force. The signal processing circuit converts the electric signal coming from the sensor element into a signal having a certain signal format and then outputs the signal thus converted. The pseudo-signal correction circuit corrects a pseudo-signal outputted by the sensor element. When receiving a test signal, the sensor element performs a self-diagnosis based on the test signal and then outputs the pseudo-signal, which represents a result of the self-diagnosis. The pseudo-signal correction circuit corrects the pseudo-signal based on environment information about an environment where at least one of the sensor element or the signal processing circuit is located.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a signal processing apparatus and system. In calibration, a sensor section is used to acquire a time of day when a stereo camera image capturing a target is acquired and a time of day when a radar image capturing the target is acquired. The target has a radar reflector and a marker. The image acquisition times of day are acquired while at the same time changing a distance between the sensor section and the target so as to find an amount of time-of-day discrepancy, a difference in time of day between the stereo camera image and the radar image at the same distance. At the time of object detection, the radar image acquired first is buffered and then output together with the stereo camera image acquired by the time-of-day discrepancy later, thus combining the stereo camera image and the radar image.

Abstract: An object detection section detects an object that is present in surroundings. A transmission section broadcasts a request signal requesting information regarding an object that has not been detected by the object detection section. A reception section receives a response signal in response to transmission of the request signal, the response signal including the information regarding the object that has not been detected by the object detection section. For example, a display control section controls display of a surrounding environment on the basis of information regarding positions and attributes of a predetermined number of objects detected by the object detection section and controls update of the display of the surrounding environment on the basis of information regarding a position and an attribute of the object that is included in the response signal and that has not been detected by the object detection section.
