  • Patent number: 11923284
    Abstract: A wiring substrate that is provided enables stray capacitance between a first electrode and a second electrode to be prevented from varying when an undulation occurs in the wiring substrate. Insulating layers are stacked. A first electrode and a second electrode are formed between the same layers at an interval. The thickness of the first electrode is more than the thickness of the second electrode. The lower main surface of the first electrode is located at a position lower than the lower main surface of the second electrode, and the upper main surface of the first electrode is located at a position higher than the upper main surface of the second electrode when seen through in a direction perpendicular to a stacking direction of the insulating layers.

  • Patent number: 11710294
    Abstract: In a road parameter estimation apparatus, a marker-based estimator extracts, based on markers extracted by a marker extractor, at least one lane line that demarcates a road into plural regions in a width direction of the road, and estimates, based on the extracted at least one lane line, a value of at least one feature parameter of the road as a maker-based estimation result. The at least one feature parameter of the road represents at least one feature of the road. A model-based estimator estimates, based on the at least one model-based demarcation line, a value of the at least one feature parameter of the road parameter as a model-based estimation result. A determiner compares the at least one lane line with the model-based demarcation line to accordingly determine whether to use the marker-based estimation result or the model-based estimation result.
