  • Patent number: 11958543
    Abstract: A motor control system includes an inverter, and a control calculation unit that feedback-controls the inverter. The control calculation unit includes a voltage control calculation unit that calculates a voltage command value indicating a voltage to be applied to the motor from the inverter on the basis of a current deviation between a current command value and an actual current detection value, a torque ripple compensation calculation unit that adds a compensation value for compensating a torque ripple in the motor to a signal value on at least one of an upstream side and a downstream side in a signal flow that passes through the voltage control calculation unit, and a current limit calculation unit that limits the current command value by adaptive control based on an actual angular velocity value indicating an angular velocity at which the motor rotates.

  • Patent number: 11615627
    Abstract: There are provided an object recognition apparatus that raises the recognition accuracy for a surrounding object and a vehicle control apparatus, and an object recognition method and a vehicle control method. An object recognition apparatus receives object data, which is a state value of the object, from a first sensor for detecting a surrounding object; compares estimation data obtained through estimation of a state value of the object, based on recognition data calculated in a past period, with the object data, and determines whether or not the object data is data in a low-resolution state; then, in accordance with the determination result, calculates the state value of the object by use of object data and estimation data and then generates the state value as recognition data, so that the recognition accuracy for an object is raised.

  • Patent number: 10928713
    Abstract: A display device has a projector having a light guide plate that guides light incident from an end portion and deflects the light guided to emit the light from a projection surface facing a viewer in a first direction, the projector being configured to emit light from the projection surface to project an image in a space viewable by the viewer, and a rotator configured to rotate the projector around the first direction. When a first end on the projection surface is located at a first position being an upper side in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, the image is viewed as a stereoscopic image by the viewer. When the rotator rotates the projector and the first end is located at a second position different from the first position, the image is viewed as a planar image by the viewer.
