  • Publication number: 20220063486
    Abstract: An autonomous driving vehicle information presentation device includes an identification unit that searches for a person existing around the own vehicle, identifies whether the person extracted by the search coincides with a user of the own vehicle, and determines whether the person extracted by the search is an owner of the own vehicle, and an information presentation unit that performs information presentation to the person through using an external display device. In a case where it is identified that the person extracted by the search coincides with the user of the own vehicle and it is determined that the person extracted by the search is the owner of the own vehicle, the information presentation unit presents information unique to the owner in a preset presentation mode with the owner serving as a presentation target.

  • Patent number: 11169174
    Abstract: In a MEMS electrostatic capacitor type acceleration sensor, the manufacturing costs of MEMS elements are reduced, and at the same time, the variations of the electrical and mechanical characteristics of the MEMS elements are reduced. A detection circuit generates a voltage signal corresponding to the product of a difference between the two capacitance values of a pair of MEMS capacitors and a servo signal. A modulation circuit outputs a signal corresponding to the difference between the capacitance values using the servo signal. The control circuit outputs the servo signal on the basis of a signal corresponding to the difference between the capacitance values.

  • Patent number: 11035876
    Abstract: Provided is a sensor that is highly accurate while ensuring reduced power consumption. A sensor is an electronic circuit that includes a sensor element, an analog filter, an A/D converter, and first and second electronic circuit. The analog filter filters a waveform that includes a sensor signal from the sensor element and noise based on a servo signal. The A/D converter converts the waveform filtered by the analog filter into a first digital signal. The first electronic circuit includes a digital filter and acquires a second digital signal by performing signal processing including at least a filtering process on the servo signal by using the digital filter. The second electronic circuit acquires a third digital signal by subtracting the second digital signal from the first digital signal. A setting for the signal processing for acquiring the second digital signal is changed on the basis of the third digital signal.

  • Publication number: 20210171060
    Abstract: In an autonomous driving vehicle information presentation apparatus, an estimation unit estimates a scheduled path for a host vehicle M. A prediction unit predicts a scheduled path for traffic participants. Based on the scheduled path for the host vehicle and the scheduled path for the traffic participants, an interference determination unit determines whether these two scheduled paths will interfere with each other in a predetermined time period. If the two scheduled paths will interfere with each other in the predetermined time period, an extraction unit extracts a specific traffic participant to be involved in the interference among the traffic participants. An information presentation unit presents information for avoiding the interference to the specific traffic participant extracted by the extraction unit as a presentation target.

  • Patent number: 10707894
    Abstract: A modulator includes an analog integrator including an analog circuit and a quantizer quantizing its output signal. An external input signal is input thereto. A modulator is coupled to the latter stage of the modulator, and includes a quantizer. A probe signal generation circuit injects a probe signal to the modulator. An adaptive filter searches for a transfer function of the modulator by observing an output signal of the quantizer in accordance with a probe signal. Another adaptive filter searches for a transfer function of the modulator by observing an output signal of the quantizer in accordance with the probe signal. A noise cancel circuit cancels a quantization error generated by the quantizer using search results of the adaptive filters.
