Abstract: A radar device according to an embodiment includes a transmission unit, a reception unit, and a processing unit. The transmission unit emits a transmission wave relating to a frequency-modulated transmission signal. The reception unit receives a reflected wave acquired by reflecting the transmission wave on an object as a reception signal. The processing unit detects object data corresponding to the object from the reception signal, outputs the object data to the vehicle control device that controls the vehicle, and removes object data satisfying the removal condition that is a condition used for determining whether or not object data is to be removed from an output target for the vehicle control device and includes at least the distance and the relative speed of the object data with respect to the speed of the vehicle as conditions from output targets for the vehicle control device.

Abstract: A motor controlling apparatus includes: a controller configured to (i) compute a target duty cycle value which is a target value for a duty cycle used for a pulse width modulation control for controlling a motor, and (ii) specify 100% as a duty cycle specified value when the target duty cycle value is greater than an upper limit value which is below 100%, or specify 0% as the duty cycle specified value when the target duty cycle value is less than a lower limit value which exceeds 0%; and a control signal generator that generates a control signal for controlling the motor at the duty cycle specified value specified by the controller.

Abstract: A signal processor is configured to: derive, using a first process, at least one of a distance and a relative speed included in the object data set; and derive, using a second process different from the first process, at least one of the distance and the relative speed included in the object data set when the distance included in the object data set is below a predetermined distance.

Abstract: In an object detection apparatus, an image obtaining part obtains, continuously in time, captured images captured by a vehicle-mounted camera capturing images of a vicinity of a host vehicle. A first detector detects an object by using the plurality of captured images obtained by the obtaining part at different time points. The first detector stores, as a template image, an area relating to the object detected by the first detector and included in one of the plurality of captured images that have been processed, in a memory. Moreover, a second detector detects an object by searching for a correlation area, having a correlation with the template image, included in a single captured image obtained by the image obtaining part.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first bump that is located over a surface of a semiconductor element, and is formed on a first bump formation face distanced from a back surface of the semiconductor element at a first distance, and a second bump that is located over the surface of the semiconductor element, and is formed on a second bump formation face distanced from the back surface of the semiconductor element at a second distance being longer than the first distance, the second bump having a diameter larger than a diameter of the first bump.

Abstract: An information processor includes a display that has a touch panel and that displays an image, and a controller that displays on the display the image that has an operation-part display area displaying at least a part of a plurality of operation buttons that receive instructions for executing prescribed functions, the instructions given by a touch operation. The operation-part display area has a switch operation area, a variable area and a fixed area. The variable area displays a part of the plurality of operation buttons, and changes over the part of the plurality of operation buttons to be displayed in response to the touch operation made on a page switch button shown in the switch operation area. The fixed area displays a part of a rest of the plurality of operation buttons fixedly regardless of the touch operation made on the page switch button.

Abstract: A remote starter transmits vehicle position information at a time of parking start to an information processor upon the parking start of a vehicle. The information processor judges whether to transmit a request for starting of the vehicle based on the vehicle position information and mobile-terminal position information upon reception of the request for starting of the vehicle and the mobile-terminal position information from a mobile terminal.

Abstract: A remote starter is installed in a vehicle for executing starting control of a driving apparatus of the vehicle, and executes the starting control of the driving apparatus in response to a request for starting received from an information processor that is located outside the vehicle. The remote starter includes a communicator that communicates with the information processor by transmitting and receiving information and a controller that obtains time information at a time of starting the driving apparatus. The communicator transmits the time information at the time of starting to the information processor at the time of starting the driving apparatus in response to the request for starting received from the information processor.

Abstract: An information processor, configured to be communicatively coupled to a mobile terminal and a remote starter that is installed in a vehicle, transmits a request for starting a driving apparatus of the vehicle to the remote starter based on the request for starting received from the mobile terminal, communicates with the mobile terminal and the remote starter by transmitting and receiving information, and judges whether to transmit the request for starting to the remote starter. The processor obtains information of a vehicle position at a time of parking start and newly obtains information of a vehicle position at a time when the request for starting is received from the mobile terminal, and judges whether to transmit the request for starting based on the information of the vehicle position at the time of parking start and the information of the vehicle position at the time of the request for starting.

Abstract: When vehicle position information at a time of parking start is available, a remote starter transmits the vehicle position information at the time of parking start to an information processor. When the vehicle position information at the time of parking start is unavailable, the remote starter transmits the vehicle position information obtained just before the vehicle position information becomes unavailable, as the vehicle position information at the time of parking start to the information processor.

Abstract: A detection and ranging system includes: M transmitting sensor elements configured to transmit a probe signal; N receiving sensor elements configured to receive an echo signal generated upon reflection of the probe signal from a target; a matrix generator configured to generate a third matrix by multiplying a first matrix by a second matrix, the first matrix including as diagonal components L received signals obtained from an effective receiving sensor array formed by synthesizing the M transmitting sensor elements and the N receiving sensor elements, the second matrix being formed of P L-dimensional vectors that are linearly independent of each other; and an estimator configured to estimate a direction of arrival of the echo signal from the target according to a pseudo covariance matrix generated by multiplying the third matrix by Hermitian conjugate transposition of the third matrix.
