Patent number: 11926316Abstract: A driving assist ECU determines that a current situation is a specific situation where it is predicted that there is no object that is about to enter an adjacent lane from an area outside of a host vehicle road on which a host vehicle is traveling, when a road-side object is detected at a part around an edge of the adjacent lane, and/or when a white line painted to define the adjacent lane is detected at the part around the edge of the adjacent lane and no object near the detected white line is detected. The driving assist ECU does not perform a steering control for avoiding a collision, the steering control for letting the vehicle enter the adjacent lane, when it is not determined that the current situation is the specific situation.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2023Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yuhei Miyamoto, Kohei Morotomi

Patent number: 11798227Abstract: An apparatus and a method are provided that are used to generate a three-dimensional model in which a more natural texture is set for an occlusion region of which a texture is not obtained from a two-dimensional image. A three-dimensional shape restoring section that generates a three-dimensional model on the basis of a two-dimensional image, and a texture processor that attaches a texture to the three-dimensional model are included. The texture processor acquires, from a DB, an existing texture similar to a texture acquired from the two-dimensional image, calculates a conversion function that is used so that the existing texture has a color closer to the color of the acquired texture, and sets, for a region of which a texture is not acquired from the two-dimensional image, a texture calculated by applying the conversion function to the existing texture.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2020Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: SONY GROUP CORPORATIONInventor: Kohei Miyamoto
