Abstract: An exemplary information processing system generates an assembled object by assembling a plurality of virtual objects based on an input by a user. The plurality of virtual objects include virtual power objects each configured to provide power to the assembled object and a virtual controller object. While the virtual power object and the virtual controller object are included in the assembled object, the information processing system causes the one or more virtual power objects to operate to move the assembled object in a predetermined traveling direction, and causes a moving direction of the movable object to change based on an input by the user.

Abstract: An example of an information processing system selects a first object among a plurality of virtual objects by a selection operation of a user and generates a bonding object indicating respective bonding positions on the selected first object and a second object among the plurality of virtual objects. In accordance with a bonding instruction from the user, the first object and the second object are bonded to each other at the respective bonding positions.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an information compression system that is capable of achieving higher compression efficiency. A data acquisition section acquires data. A generation section (segmentation section and integration section) determines each object depicted by the data and a sense of each object, and according to results of the determination, generates compression target data by converting values of elements in the data to identification information indicating each object and the sense of each object. A data storage section generates compressed data by compressing the compression target data. This makes it possible to convert highly random element values to slightly random identification information and compress the resulting converted information while reducing the amount of information. Consequently, the compression ratio can be increased.

Abstract: A driving assist device includes a driving assist controller. The driving assist controller is configured to perform driving assistance when the vehicle changes a course by crossing the oncoming lane. The driving assist controller sets a predicted travel region based on behavior of the oncoming vehicle when the oncoming vehicle is approaching the vehicle that enters an intersection.

The driving assist controller causes the vehicle to stop outside of the predicted travel region when there is a possibility of the contact.

Abstract: A vehicle traveling control apparatus includes a sensor and a traveling control processor configured to function as an identification unit and a tentative identification calculation unit. The identification unit identifies whether the target detected by the sensor is a ghost or a real object based on results of the detection for first number of measurement cycles, and if the target is the real object and a possibility that the target and the vehicle come into contact with each other is present, causes a first traveling control to be executed. The tentative identification calculation unit determines whether the target is the ghost or the real object based on results of the detection for second number of measurement cycles, and when the target is the ghost and the possibility is present, causes a second traveling control to be executed. The second number is less than the first number.

Abstract: A driver assistance device acquires information about vehicle-driving environment ahead of the vehicle to detect an intersection. Upon determining that the vehicle makes a right- or left-hand turn at the intersection, the driver assistance device sets a projected course of the vehicle and recognizes a moving object ahead in a direction in which the vehicle making a right- or left-hand turn is headed. The driver assistance device calculates a movement vector from positional changes of the moving object to calculate a meeting point of a path of the object and the projected course. When an interval between times at which the vehicle and the moving object reach the meeting point is found to fall within a predetermined range, the driver assistance device determines that there is a possibility of interference between the vehicle and the moving object and then causes the vehicle to halt short of the meeting point.
