  • Publication number: 20120019204
    Abstract: If a route has not yet been set in a car navigation apparatus, and when a vehicle approaches a specific crossing or a charging station located ahead of a current-driving road, or when remaining charge of a battery becomes less, the navigation apparatus retrieves and displays information about charging stations of the respective branching directions. When the vehicle approaches a specific crossing, the navigation apparatus guides information for indicating whether or not a charging station is present, a distance, and whether or not the vehicle can reach the charging station with respect to each of directions branched from the specific crossing. Also, when a charging station is located ahead of the road, the navigation apparatus retrieves charging stations of the respective branching destinations at a specific crossing located in front of the road, and judges whether or not the vehicle can be driven up to the respective retrieved charging stations.

  • Patent number: 7580612
    Abstract: In the digital broadcast to a mobile unit, the continuous reproduction of an image cannot be guaranteed when switching the hierarchical level in accordance with the receiving condition of the radio wave and therefore the viewer has a sense of discomfort. A digital broadcast sending apparatus sends out by encoding a plurality of simultaneous broadcast streams in the same sync signal generator. A switching determination unit of the receiving apparatus switches the plurality of simultaneous broadcast streams in accordance with the receiving condition (weak hierarchical level/strong hierarchical level), and a sync adjustment unit continuously displays an image without interruptions based on the received sync signal. At the time of this switching operation, one stream is gradually switched to the other.

  • Patent number: 7386722
    Abstract: A certificate management method is provided whereby a plurality of service providers have different reliable certificate authorities and, when certificates issued from the certificate authorities are implemented into a smart card, merely by revoking the certificate issued from the certificate authority on which the first service provider relies, all other implemented certificates can be revoked, and the certificates can be individually revoked. A system for implementing the method is provided. The certificate authorities n (n?2) issue a certificate n by using a private key n? corresponding to certificate n? generated by using a certificate 1 issued from a certificate authority 1 which has previously been installed in the smart card and a corresponding private key 1. Thus, the issued certificates have a hierarchical chain relation. When the user wants to revoke all certificates, the certificate 1 issued from the certificate authority 1 is revoked.
