  • Patent number: 8798929
    Abstract: In a navigation apparatus, HOV information related to a high-occupancy vehicle lane or carpool lane is added into node data of a node as a part of the node data in map data. The HOV information of all nodes in a highway in a guide route is acquired from the map data to calculate the total number of transfer permit points. When it is determined that a guide for HOV is possible based on the calculated total number of transfer permit points, and then it is determined that an entry distance from the present position to a nearest transfer permit point is in a predetermined range suitable for an entrance guide into the carpool lane, the entry distance is determined to be suitable for the entrance guide into the carpool lane. Thereby the entrance guide into the carpool lane is provided.

  • Patent number: 8731825
    Abstract: A trajectory display device includes: a display element; a current position detector; a memory for storing the current position successively; and a position determination unit for determining a plurality of certain actual distance trajectory points and a plurality of direction change points based on position data stored in the memory. The certain actual distance trajectory points are arranged at every actual distance defined by a scale of a map. The moving body changes a moving direction at each direction change point. The display element displays the trajectory including the certain actual distance trajectory points and the direction change points, which is overlapped over the map.

  • Patent number: 8548732
    Abstract: A travel-estimated road, which a vehicle is estimated to travel, intersects with a cross road at an intersection. A search area shaped of a sector centering on the intersection is defined to have a central angle to include an extending direction of the cross road. An arc intersecting point is then defined where an outer circumference arc of the search area intersects with the cross road. A display position of the road name of the cross road on a road map is determined based on a line segment between the intersection and the arc intersecting point. Thus, the road name of the cross road can be displayed in a position, which is in proximity to the travel-estimated road so as to allow a user to clearly recognize that the displayed road name indicates the cross road irrespective of the configuration of the cross road.

  • Patent number: 8077248
    Abstract: A lead frame is buried in mold resin to form a mold structure. A wide blade is used to make an indentation having an alignment step in the mold structure. Then, a narrow blade is used to split the mold structure. At the outer perimeter portion of a base which is a separate part separated from the mold structure, an alignment step is formed. Due to the alignment step, an optical element, such as a mirror tube of an imaging optical system, or the like, is readily and quickly attached.

  • Patent number: 8046710
    Abstract: A rectangular area containing sections corresponding to same weather information is set. If sections at four corners of the set area are sections corresponding to the same weather information, a numerical value “1” is set as a weighting score to the sections. If not so, a numerical value “0” is set to the sections. Sections to which no weighting score is allocated and which are adjacent to sections to which weighting scores have been allocated are successively selected from the outer edge side, and the maximum value of the weighting scores of the four sections adjacent to each selected section is set as a weighting score of the selected section. If the previously selected section is a section corresponding to the weather information, the numerical value “1” is added to the weighting score of the section. The section having the highest weighting score is selected as a specific section, and an icon is displayed on the specific section.

  • Publication number: 20090112468
    Abstract: A bird's-eye view map is drawn to have two horizontal divisions which divide the display window into three display window sections. The top display window section displays an image of a bird's-eye view in which a mountain range in the distant-range view is drawn using altitude information as it is. The central display window section displays a bird's-eye view in which a mountain range is drawn using altitude information by 50%. In addition, the bottom display window section displays a bird's-eye view in which a road or the like in the close-range view is drawn without using altitude information. This configuration of the whole of the display window can provide a bird's-eye view map with reality. Further, the road or the like in the close-range view is drawn with depression and projection not so highly conspicuous. Users can be thus provided with a bird's-eye view map having enhanced visibility.

  • Publication number: 20060201659
    Abstract: The heat-radiating member 1 shown in FIG. 1 with a tourmaline layer is formed by mixing schorl tourmaline powder having a grain diameter of 3 to 7 ?m with a liquid-form fixing agent to form a coating agent, and then applying that coating agent to the surface of a base material, which is made from a metal such as copper, aluminum or the like having excellent heat conductivity, until the density of the schorl tourmaline powder is 0.25 to 0.05 grams per cm2, and allowing it to harden. With this construction, it is possible to provide a heat-radiating member, or devices or parts themselves that can be expected to have a better heat-radiation effect than a heat-radiating member whose base material is treated with a black coating.

  • Patent number: 5990534
    Abstract: A diode suited for absorbing a surge which includes a semiconductor substrate, a pn junction defined in the semiconductor substrate, and an exothermic body adjacent to the pn junction which leads the pn junction to the Zener breakdown under an overcurrent is disclosed. This diode is improved in a characteristic against a surge utilizing the secondary breakdown and prevents the yield from lowering due to inconstancy in resistivity of the wafer used.
