Abstract: A vehicle notification apparatus is equipped to a subject vehicle having a notification portion for providing a notification to an occupant, and outputs, to the notification portion, a notification signal for providing the notification about a non-subject vehicle. The vehicle notification apparatus includes a determination portion determining whether the subject vehicle is travelling on a road where a lane change is allowed, and a notification determination portion determining whether to output the notification signal to the notification portion according to a distance between the subject vehicle and the non-subject vehicle and a relative speed of the non-subject vehicle with respect to the subject vehicle when the determination portion determines that the subject vehicle is travelling on the road where the lane change is allowed.

Abstract: A destination determination device for a vehicle includes: a communication unit that performs a wireless communication with a mobile terminal used by an occupant in the vehicle and having a destination search function; a search condition acquisition unit that acquires destination search conditions from the mobile terminal through the communication unit; a search unit that performs a destination search based on an AND search of a combined search condition in which a plurality of acquired destination search conditions are combined together when the search condition acquisition unit acquires the plurality of destination search condition; and a search result output unit that outputs a search result of the destination search performed by the search unit under the combined search condition.

Abstract: A vehicular display control apparatus controls an image reflecting off one of a windshield and a combiner to allow an occupant of a vehicle to visually recognize a virtual image of the image. The apparatus generates a line image and an obstacle image concerning an obstacle around the vehicle and acquires a relative direction of the obstacle with reference to the vehicle. When the obstacle exists ahead of the vehicle, a line virtual image is shaped in concave in a first direction. When the obstacle exists behind the vehicle, the line virtual image is shaped in concave in a second direction opposite to the first direction. A position of an obstacle virtual image depends on a relative direction of the obstacle with reference to the vehicle along a width direction of the vehicle.

Abstract: A driving assistance apparatus includes an arrangement memory that stores a past captured image around a target parking region, a captured image acquisition section that acquires a present captured image around the target parking region at parking or departing with respect to the target parking region, and an obstacle specification section that specifies a non-stationary obstacle around the target parking region, based on a difference between the past captured image stored in the arrangement memory, and the present captured image acquired by the arrangement acquisition section. A report section performs a report indicating presence of a non-stationary object when approaching closely the non-stationary object.

Abstract: A vehicle recognition notification apparatus mounted on a subject vehicle includes: a recognition information reception processing section; an another-driver recognition state determination section; an informing control section; a subject-driver recognition state determination section; a recognition information transmission processing section; a subject-vehicle position acquisition section; a vehicle information reception processing section; an another-vehicle position acquisition section; and a visual line detection section. The subject-driver recognition state determination section determines whether the driver of the subject vehicle recognizes the other vehicle. The another-driver recognition state determination section determines whether the subject vehicle is present in a predetermined viewable range of the other vehicle.

Abstract: A driving assistance apparatus includes a proximity detection section that detects an obstacle within a set distance, a behavior regulation section that performs a forced braking of a vehicle when the obstacle is detected by the proximity detection section, an arrangement memory that stores a past captured image around a target parking region, a captured image acquisition section that acquires a present captured image around the target parking region at parking or departing with respect to the target parking region, and an obstacle specification section that specifies a non-stationary obstacle around the target parking region, based on a difference between the past captured image stored in the arrangement memory and the present captured image acquired by the arrangement acquisition section. The proximity detection section assigns a stationary object with the set distance that is smaller than the set distance assigned to a non-stationary object.

Abstract: A display device for a vehicle includes an information acquiring unit, a display unit and a control unit. The information acquiring unit acquires vehicle information regarding the vehicle. The vehicle information includes engine information indicating an engine on and off state. The control unit controls the display unit to display the vehicle information when the engine information indicates an engine on state. Further, the display unit controls the display unit to discontinue the display of the vehicle information once when the engine on state of the engine information is switched to the engine off state, and to restart display of the vehicle information.

Abstract: A meter apparatus is mountable on a vehicle equipped with an internal combustion engine having an output shaft that rotates at a predetermined idling speed during idling of the engine. When the vehicle satisfies a predetermined stop condition during rotation of the output shaft at the idling speed, the rotation of the output shaft is stopped temporarily. The meter apparatus includes a pointer needle that moves according to a rotation speed of the output shaft to indicate the rotation speed. The amount of movement of the pointer needle with respect to a change in the rotation speed of the output shaft is less when the rotation speed is in a low speed range below the idling speed than when the rotation speed is in a high speed range above the idling speed.

Abstract: An engine revolution meter for displaying an engine revolution number display value includes an obtaining device, a calculating device, and a determining device. The obtaining device obtains an engine revolution number measurement value corresponding to a measured revolution number of an engine of a vehicle. The calculating device calculates the display value based on the measurement value. The determining device determines whether the measurement value is greater or less than a reference value. When the determining device determines that the measurement value is less than the reference value, the calculating device calculates the display value in such a manner that the display value changes at a first rate different from a second rate at which the measurement value changes.
