  • Patent number: 12087165
    Abstract: A predictor 62 predicts a future of a prediction target in a monitoring area. The predictor 62 includes a movement state information acquirer 620 configured to acquire movement state information, a surrounding state information acquirer 621 configured to acquire surrounding state information regarding movement states of traffic participants around the prediction target, a confirmation state information acquirer 623 configured to acquire confirmation state information regarding a surrounding confirmation state of a driver of the prediction target, a moving speed predictor 624 configured to predict a future moving speed of the prediction target on a basis of the movement state information, the surrounding state information, and the confirmation state information, and a collision predictor 625 configured to predict whether or not a collision will occur in a future of the prediction target on the basis of the movement state information, the surrounding state information, and the future moving speed.

  • Patent number: 11965130
    Abstract: A borehole cement slurry additive that is capable of suppressing the generation of free water from cement slurries in any environment, whether cold regions, mild regions, or hot regions; and a method for storing the same. The borehole cement slurry additive contains: an aqueous dispersion of silica having an average particle size of 3-200 nm as determined via dynamic light scattering; and a compound having an alcoholic hydroxyl group as a dispersion stabilizer, the compound being included in an amount of 1-30 mol per 1,000 g dispersion medium in the aqueous silica dispersion.
