Abstract: Route information indicating a preset route is acquired. Host vehicle position information indicating the position of a host vehicle is acquired. It is detected whether a direction indicator providing advance notice of a traveling direction of the host vehicle is on or off. If the position of the host vehicle agrees with a position on the route, the position of the host vehicle approaches a position to turn on the route, and it is detected that the direction indicator is off, a warning operation pertaining to a warning directed at another vehicle traveling in the vicinity of the host vehicle is performed.

An outward warning device performs an outward warning operation pertaining to a warning directed at another vehicle traveling in the vicinity of the host vehicle. Then, an inward warning device performs an inward warning operation pertaining to a warning directed at the driver of the host vehicle.

Abstract: A host vehicle is provided with a detection device that detects the behavior of an object in the surroundings of the host vehicle in a non-contact manner. The host vehicle is also provided with the following: a warning device that performs a warning operation pertaining to a warning directed at a following vehicle that is traveling behind the host vehicle; and a control device that controls the warning device on the basis of the result of detection by the detection device. The control device controls the warning device so as to perform the warning operation in a case where the result of detection by the detection device indicates that the behavior of an object in the surroundings of the host vehicle corresponds to an unnatural behavioral pattern.

Abstract: A collision avoidance system is provided with: a rear detection device arranged in a host vehicle and capable of detecting an object directly behind the host vehicle, an object to the rear-right of the host vehicle, and an object to the rear-left of the host vehicle in a non-contact manner. A computation processing unit outputs, on the basis of a detection result from the rear detection device, the presence/absence of the possibility of a collision between the host vehicle and: a first following vehicle approaching the host vehicle from directly behind, a second following vehicle approaching the host vehicle from the rear-right, and a third following vehicle approaching the host vehicle from the rear-left. A warning device generates warnings when there is the possibility of a collision with the first, second or third following vehicles.

Abstract: An information acquisition device is provided within a virtual plane including a coil axis of a coil-shaped antenna and having a perpendicular line orthogonal to an axis of rotation of a tire, such that the angle formed by the coil axis of the antenna relative to the tire rotational axis is within a range of 0° to 40°. The amount of attenuation of radio waves emitted from the antenna to the exterior of the tire is thereby reduced.

Abstract: The present technology provides a system for detecting the tensile force of a guy rope in a pneumatic fender capable of preventing the breakage of the guy rope, and a pneumatic fender. Tensile force data detected by a tensile force sensor detecting the tensile force of a guy rope is transmitted by a wireless transmitter, and is inputted to a computation device through a receiver. An alerting device issues an alert when the tensile data is at least equivalent to reference data previously inputted to the computation device.

Abstract: A computer 11 of a ship monitoring device 1 arranges one kind of transmission data between two consecutive start control codes and two consecutive termination control codes. The computer 11 also arranges information indicating a type of the transmission data between the transmission data and the start control codes and between the termination control codes and the transmission data. In this way, the transmission data is transmitted in form of packet data. Therefore, transmission data in information communication between ships and sensed information in information communication of fenders can be easily distinguished from each other. In addition, a type of information transmitted as the transmission data can be easily identified.
