Abstract: A vehicle surrounding information acquiring apparatus includes: a radar detector configured to detect an object around a vehicle by radio waves; a lidar detector configured to detect an object around the vehicle by light; and an image detector configured to capture a periphery of the vehicle and detect an object from the captured image. The apparatus comprises: a first processor configured to generate target information by combining a detection result of the radar detector and a detection result of the image detector; a second processor configured to generate target information by combining a detection result of the lidar detector and the detection result of the image detector; and a third processor configured to generate target information of the periphery of the vehicle by integrating the target information generated by the first processor and the target information generated by the second processor.

Abstract: A target recognition system includes: a first recognition device which recognizes a target; a second recognition device which recognizes a target and differs from the first recognition device; a first processing unit which determines whether the target recognized by the first recognition device or the second recognition device is a new target which has not been recognized in the past on the basis of recognition results of the first recognition device and the second recognition device; a second processing unit which predicts a future position and speed of the target recognized by the first recognition device or the second recognition device when the first processing unit determines that the target recognized by the first recognition device or the second recognition device is not a new target; and a third processing unit which determines whether excessive detection has occurred in the first recognition device or the second recognition device on the basis of the recognition results of the first recognition devic

Abstract: A multi-core processor includes a plurality of former-stage cores that perform parallel processing using a plurality of pipelines covering a plurality of stages. In the pipelines, the former-stage cores perform stages ending with an instruction decode stage; stages starting with an instruction execution stage are executed by a latter-stage core. A dynamic load distribution block refers to decode results in the instruction decode stage and controls to assign the latter-stage core with a latter-stage-needed decode result being a decode result whose processing needs to be executed in the latter-stage core.
