Abstract: A vehicle display control device provided in a vehicle is disclosed. The apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry recognizes a traffic regulation mark indicating a traffic regulation provided on a traveling route of the vehicle. The processing circuitry controls a display device to display first content information and second content information in a display area in front of a driver's seat of the vehicle. The first content information indicates content of a regulation in an effective range indicated by the traffic regulation mark in a case where the vehicle enters the effective range of the regulation. The second content information indicates content other than the first content information. The processing circuitry controls display of the first content information and the second content information in the display area on the basis of priorities set for the first content information and the second content information.

Abstract: A vehicle guidance system includes a hardware processor. The hardware processor specifies, outside a vehicle, a route from a starting position to a target position in a parking lot, and transmits, to the vehicle over a communication network, information about at least one route section of the route. The hardware processor determines detection accuracy of a first monitoring device being set as an active monitoring device out of monitoring devices. The active monitoring device serves to monitor deviation of the vehicle from the route section during autonomous driving along the route section. In response to determining that the detection accuracy of the first monitoring device is lower than a reference accuracy, the hardware processor sets a second monitoring device as the active monitoring device in place of the first monitoring device. The second monitoring device is different from the first monitoring device among the monitoring devices.

Abstract: The invention provides a mounting method by which a flat coil formed by winding an insulator layer and a metal foil sheet in layers can be mounted readily and with certainty on a circuit board. In mounting a flat coil on a circuit board, at first a pair of terminal portions each composed of a layer of solder are formed at a first end portion and a last end portion of the flat coil such that they extend in an axial direction of the coil, and then the coil is disposed on the circuit board such that the terminal portions thereof may be opposed in a perpendicular relationship to connecting faces of a conductor pattern on the circuit board. After then, the coil and the circuit board are heat processed to cause solder material applied to the connecting portions of the conductor pattern to adhere to faces of the terminal portions over the full extent of the axial length of the flat coil to interconnect the connecting faces of the conductor pattern and the terminal portions of the flat coil.

Abstract: A process for producing a flat coil of high reliability and free from the problem of short-circuiting, and capable of high productivity. The process includes steps of forming an insulator layer on a metal foil ribbon, winding the metal foil around a center shaft or mandrel while pressing the insulator layer toward the center shaft to form a rolled up metal foil body. A strip electrode of conductive metal may be integrally attached to the inner or outer periphery of the coil or both to provide electrical connection to the turns. An insulating resin layer may be formed at an outer end of the metal foil, and a metal reinforcing layer can be formed on the outer periphery of the rolled up body other than at the insulating resin layer by electroplating to form a coil block. The rolled up body or coil block is then cut by electric discharge machining in a direction transverse to the center shaft to form flat coils at a predetermined thickness.
