Abstract: An electronic control unit is connected to a network in an in-vehicle network system. The electronic control unit includes a first control circuit and a second control circuit. The first control circuit is connected to the network via the second control circuit. The second control circuit performs a first determination process on a frame to determine conformity of the frame with a first rule. Upon determining that the frame conforms to the first rule, the second control circuit transmits the frame to the first control circuit. The first control circuit performs a second determination process on the frame to determine conformity of the frame with a second rule. The second rule is different from the first rule.

Abstract: A warning apparatus for warning of possible rear-end collision of a given vehicle having the warning apparatus with another vehicle preceding the given vehicle includes: a computer; a distance sensor for measuring a vehicle-to-vehicle distance to the another preceding vehicle; and a velocity sensor for measuring the velocity of the given vehicle. The computer computes a relative velocity of the given and the another preceding vehicle from a differential of the vehicle-to-vehicle distance and then computes an anticipated rear-end collision time by dividing of the vehicle-to-vehicle distance by the relative velocity of the given vehicle. The computer corrects the anticipated rear-end collision time in response to an acceleration and the relative velocity. The computer produces a warning of signal and an alarm is provided in response to the corrected anticipated rear-end collision time.

Abstract: A light-wave distance measuring apparatus has an intermittent controller for continuously changing periods of time during which a light intensity modulator 1 transmits and interrupts transmitting a light intensity modulated signal so as to avoid a synchronization of the light intensity modulated signal of the a first tranmitting apparatus with a light intensity modulated signal transmitted from a second light-wave distance measuring apparatus. The operation of the intermittent controller prevents a misfunction of the apparatus. Provisions of a self-speed detector, a time marker and a light transmission interval measuring circuit enables the apparatus to detect the speed of a target object. Thus, the apparatus is suitable for mounting on a vehicle. The apparatus operates accurately even when both the vehicle and the target object are moving. The apparatus also accurately operates without interference even when other similar light-wave distance measuring apparatus for vehicles are used in a small area.
