  • Patent number: 11680811
    Abstract: A vehicle position guidance system includes a terminal position measurement section, a vehicle position measurement section, a calculator, and a guide. The terminal position measurement section measures a position of a terminal carried by a user. The vehicle position measurement section measures a position of a parked vehicle. The calculator obtains a route using position information related to the terminal and position information related to the parked vehicle. The guide assists the user in entering the vehicle by selectively using a first guidance and a second guidance depending on whether a distance is long or short between the terminal and the parked vehicle on the route. The first guidance provides guidance to the position of the parked vehicle using the terminal. The second guidance provides guidance to the position of the parked vehicle through a notification using a vehicle on-board device of the parked vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20210028724
    Abstract: A transducer device includes a first dielectric layer, a first electrode layer and a second electrode layer that hold the first dielectric layer in a thickness direction, a second dielectric layer provided continuously from the first dielectric layer, a third electrode layer and a fourth electrode layer that hold the second dielectric layer in the thickness direction, and a controller. The controller calculates a command value of voltage to be applied to the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer and applies a voltage corresponding to the command value to the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer so that the first dielectric layer is deformed in the thickness direction. The controller measures a capacitance Cs of the second dielectric layer via the third electrode layer and the fourth electrode layer and calculates the command value in reference to the measured capacitance Cs.

  • Publication number: 20080001446
    Abstract: An occupant protection apparatus includes an airbag provided at a seat portion of a vehicle seat. The airbag is inflatable in such manner as to push up at least a part of a cushion body of the seat portion. At the time of collision of the vehicle, an ECU permits inflation of the airbag if a sensor senses that an occupant is seated on the seat, and inhibits inflation of the airbag if the sensor senses that no occupant is seated on the seat. Therefore, when no occupant is seated on the seat, inflation of the airbag is inhibited at a vehicle collision.

  • Patent number: 6938920
    Abstract: An occupant restraining device (S1) comprises a shielding member (51F) and an airbag (104F). The shielding member (51F) in action is deployed from the peripheral edge (DW) of a window (WF) of a vehicle to shield the window. The airbag (104F) in action is expanded and inflated from the peripheral edge (UW) of the window that it can be interposed between the shielding member (51F) and an occupant (M). The airbag (104F) allows the side of the lower end (105b) at the time of completion of the expansion and inflation to move in the direction generally perpendicular to the window (WF). Even if the occupant (M) is close to the window (WF), the expanded and inflated airbag (104F) is smoothly interposed between the occupant (M) and the window (WF).
