Abstract: A vehicle ride-sharing assist system includes a user terminal, a vehicle terminal, and a host server. The host server includes a proximity notification unit for generating a proximity notification signal when a distance between a user and a ride-sharing vehicle becomes equal to or less than a prescribed value. The vehicle terminal includes a user response request unit for generating a user response request signal on receiving the proximity notification signal. The user terminal includes a user side notification/operation unit for notifying the user of a specific motion or cause the user terminal to perform a specific operation according to the user response request signal. The vehicle terminal further includes a user position identification unit for detecting the motion of the user or the operation of the user terminal and identifying a position of the user. A user position notification unit notifies the identified position to the driver.

Abstract: A rideshare vehicle utilization supporting system supports matching of a rideshare vehicle and a user. The rideshare vehicle utilization supporting system includes: a rideshare vehicle management unit that manages a ridesharing plan of the rideshare vehicle within a retrieval target area; a predetermined rideshare vehicle extraction unit that extracts a predetermined rideshare vehicle, the predetermined rideshare vehicle being the rideshare vehicle for which the ridesharing plan within the retrieval target area in a retrieval target time zone is already determined by the rideshare vehicle management unit; and a predetermined ridesharing route guide unit that makes a display unit visually recognized by the user display a predetermined ridesharing route guide screen for which a predetermined ridesharing route of the predetermined rideshare vehicle is superimposed on a map of the retrieval target area.

Abstract: A vehicle ride-sharing support system which supports matching between a user and a vehicle for ride-sharing includes a condition information acquiring unit acquiring desired condition information, from a user terminal apparatus, the desired condition information including a desired location and a desired time slot which are desired by the user, a reservation information acquiring unit acquiring and storing a reservation accepting record indicating a reserved location, a reserved date and a reserved time slot for each of matching reservation requests transmitted from the user terminal apparatus, and a difficulty level calculating unit calculating, on a basis of the stored past reservation accepting record, an index value of an index representing a difficulty level of achievement of the matching for each predetermined time slot including the desired time slot for each of predetermined locations in an area within a predetermined distance range including the desired location.

Abstract: The vehicle is equipped with a front window having a light transmission characteristic and separated into a first area and a second area provided below the first area, wherein a boundary between the first area and the second area is provided so that a looking-down angle from a driver is constant.

Abstract: In a vehicular body structure, left and right front pillars are provided closer to the longitudinal centerline of a vehicle than left and right corner sections of a compartment of the vehicle. First corner window (26) provided adjacent to one of the left and right front pillars (13) which is more remote from a driver's seat (24) has a greater opening area than a second corner window (25) provided adjacent to the other of the left and right pillars (11) which is closer to the driver's seat.

Abstract: An automatically driven motor vehicle automatically follows a front motor vehicle while controlling an intervehicular distance up to the front motor vehicle. A speed of the following motor vehicle, and a speed of the front motor vehicle are recognized. The difference between the speed of the following motor vehicle and the speed of the front motor vehicle is compared with a predetermined value, and acceleration/deceleration correcting data to adjust an intervehicular distance between the following motor vehicle and the front motor vehicle are adjusted depending on the speed of the following motor vehicle or the speed of the front motor vehicle based on a result of comparison. The acceleration/deceleration correcting data are generated based on the speed of the front motor vehicle if the difference is smaller than the predetermined value, and the acceleration/deceleration correcting data are generated based on the speed of the following motor vehicle if the difference is greater than the predetermined value.
