Publication number: 20230386333Abstract: A notification apparatus includes an image obtaining unit and a notifying unit. The image obtaining unit obtains a surrounding image as an image of a surrounding of a moving body photographed from the moving body. The notifying unit notifies information regarding a type of an object when an object different from a predetermined feature appears in a first area where the predetermined feature is expected to appear inside the surrounding image. The first area is determined based on map information including position information of the predetermined feature and a position of the moving body at a time when the surrounding image is photographed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2020Publication date: November 30, 2023Inventors: Kazuhiro WATANABE, Masao NAKANE

Patent number: 4511974Abstract: An indicating method and apparatus of cargo load condition of a forklift truck. In this method and apparatus weight and centroid position of the loaded cargo are calculated by a calculation control circuit based on loads applied to a lift mechanism and a tilt mechanism of the truck. The calculated weight and centroid position are displayed on two-dimensional coordinates illustrated on a displaying device in contrast with an overturn danger line which is determined forecasting the forward overturn of the truck. The load condition may be displayed in three-dimensional coordinates in relation to lift height of the cargo as well as the weight and the centroid position thereof.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 1982Date of Patent: April 16, 1985Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyoda Jidoshokki SeisakushoInventors: Masao Nakane, Motohiko Takahashi, Takaki Ogawa
