Patent number: 9531783Abstract: An information distribution device capable of distributing call attention information for calling attention to an event after confirming whether or not an event has occurred depending on circumstances is provided. A communication unit receives vehicle information, which relates to the behavior of a vehicle, and image information, which includes an image photographed by a vehicle has photographed, and distributes the call attention information for calling attention to an event, to a vehicle. A control unit determines whether or not to make a request to a vehicle for transmission of the image information, based on vehicle information or weather information, and makes a request to a vehicle for transmission of an image if it is determined to make a request for transmission of the image information.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2011Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: FUJITSU TEN LIMITEDInventors: Shohji Ueoka, Yuusaku Matsuda, Yuki Wakabayashi, Kazuma Fujiwara

Patent number: 9228845Abstract: Navigation systems, methods, and programs acquire deviated point information regarding a deviated point where a vehicle traveling a set route has deviated the route, and acquire post-deviation travel history information regarding a travel history after a deviated vehicle has deviated the route at the deviated point. The systems, methods, and programs determine based on the post-deviation travel history information for each of the deviated vehicles whether the deviated vehicle has traveled along a reroute set after deviating the route at the deviated point, and judges whether a rate of the deviated vehicles which were determined as having traveled along the reroute is a first predetermined value or more. If the rate of the deviated vehicles which were determined as having traveled along the reroute is the first predetermined value or more, the systems, methods, and programs determine that guidance of the route is not appropriate.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2011Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignees: ASIN AW CO., LTD., TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHA, DENSO CORPORATION, FUJITSU LIMIED, FUJITSU TEM LIMITEDInventors: Hirokazu Nomoto, Ichiro Usami, Kensuke Hanaoka, Sayaka Yoshizu, Hironobu Sugimoto, Takao Suzuki, Hiroshi Takeuchi, Shohji Ueoka, Hideaki Miyazaki, Toshifumi Obayashi, Takayuki Suzumiya

Patent number: 8472864Abstract: A database construction system constructs a database storing broadcast channels which are receivable in each area. A receiving unit receives probe information from a plurality of broadcast receiving apparatuses, the probe information including reception intensity of each of the broadcast channels and positions of the broadcast receiving apparatuses. An information storage unit stores the probe information received by the receiving unit. An extracting unit extracts the probe information with the same broadcast channel as that of new probe information, which is the probe information newly received by the receiving unit, among the probe information transmitted from a transmission area of the new probe information, from the information storage unit. A determining unit determines whether the new probe information is valid on the basis of the reception intensity included in the probe information extracted by the extracting unit and the reception intensity included in the new probe information.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2010Date of Patent: June 25, 2013Assignee: Fujitsu Ten LimitedInventors: Shohji Ueoka, Yuki Wakabayashi, Kazuma Fujiwara, Yuusaku Matsuda

Patent number: 8219052Abstract: An information providing system is provided. An in-vehicle apparatus is provided in a vehicle. The in-vehicle apparatus receives a broadcasting. An information providing apparatus transmits area information related to a broadcast channel that is receivable in a traveling area of the vehicle to the in-vehicle apparatus. A storage unit stores the area information for each traveling area. A receiving unit receives probe information including a predetermined reference position or a position of the vehicle from the in-vehicle apparatus. A deciding unit decides a reference area set including a plurality of traveling areas which are within a predetermined distance from the reference position included in the received probe information for each vehicle. An accumulating unit accumulates the received probe information. A determining unit determines a traveling record of the vehicle in each traveling area on the basis of the accumulated probe information.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2010Date of Patent: July 10, 2012Assignee: Fujitsu Ten LimitedInventors: Shohji Ueoka, Yuki Wakabayashi, Kazuma Fujiwara, Yuusaku Matsuda
