  • Patent number: 11654896
    Abstract: A steering motor generates a driving force based on a steering instruction from a travel control unit and applies a steering axial force to a rack shaft to thereby cause vehicle wheels to be steered. An action planning unit, through the travel control unit, initiates traveling at a starting position of parking on a movement path by suppressing the steering axial force to be less than a maximum driving force of the steering motor.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11628833
    Abstract: An automated parking movement path is generated such that a vehicle speed and a steering angle are set so as to enable a full steering axial force to be applied within a range of being less than a maximum driving force which depends on the temperature of a steering motor. Consequently, a load on the steering motor is suppressed, and thus a rise in the temperature of a steering motor is suppressed within the movement path from a movement starting position to a movement ending position.

  • Patent number: 11345338
    Abstract: A movement path is regenerated within a movement capable region in accordance with an instruction to correct a movement path by a pointing unit, and the regenerated movement path is displayed on a display unit in a superimposed manner on a movement capable region for a user's own vehicle. As a result, without changing a parking space (position) in which a vehicle occupant desires to park, it is possible for parking to be performed along the desired movement path to the desired parking space.

  • Publication number: 20210139116
    Abstract: A moving body that moves at least one of in water or along a water surface, in accordance with a person moving on the water by stepping with feet in an alternating manner, includes a movement information acquiring unit that acquires information concerning movement of a foot of the person or a worn item worn on the foot of the person, and a control unit that, when the foot of the person moves away from the moving body, causes the moving body to move to a stepping destination of the foot based on the information acquired by the movement information acquiring unit. A moving body system includes the moving body and the worn item.

  • Patent number: 8903335
    Abstract: An electronic component (encoder) including an operation body is mounted on a circuit board. The electronic component causes a controller to perform processing in accordance with an operation input by the operation body. The mounting board includes a power-feeding leg piece connected to a wireless communication processor so that high frequency communication is allowed, a first short-circuiting leg piece that is adjacent to the power-feeding leg piece via a cut-out portion, and a second short-circuiting leg piece separated from the power-feeding leg piece. The short-circuiting leg pieces are connected to grounded portions. The impedance is adjusted by appropriately selecting the width or the depth of the cut-out portion. The resonance frequency is adjusted by appropriately selecting the size or the position of the short-circuiting leg piece. Thus, the mounting board operates as an inverted-F antenna in which the power-feeding leg piece functions as a power feeding portion.

  • Patent number: 6456505
    Abstract: An electronic device having a plurality of leader patterns, and penetration portions penetrating the leader patterns, provided in an extension portion of a printed board projecting from a housing. The respective leader patterns are configured to function as connection terminals by connecting directly to lands on a mother board without the use of separate metal terminals.
