  • Patent number: 11352090
    Abstract: An information providing device 1 of a motorcycle includes: an image acquisition section 10 that acquires an image of a road; a lane detection section 12 that detects a lane from the image and detects a radius of curvature of the detected lane and a lateral distance from the host vehicle to the lane; a host vehicle trajectory curvature calculation section 14 that calculates a radius of curvature of a host vehicle trajectory on the basis of the radius of curvature of the lane and the lateral distance; a vehicle speed acquisition section 16 that acquires a vehicle speed of the host vehicle; an inclination angle calculation section 18 that calculates an inclination angle of the host vehicle on the basis of the radius of curvature of the host vehicle trajectory and the vehicle speed.

  • Patent number: 10430670
    Abstract: The invention has a purpose of providing an image-recognition device capable of appropriately performing image recognition even when a vehicle body is tilted, and a method for controlling the same. An image-recognition device 10 is mounted in the vehicle body and recognizes a surrounding situation of the vehicle body on the basis of image data that corresponds to an image of surroundings captured from the vehicle body. The image-recognition device 10 includes: a tilt-detection section 2 that detects a tilt of the vehicle body; an image-rotation section 4 that rotates the image data for correction in accordance with the tilt detected by the tilt-detection section 2; and an image-recognition section 5 that recognizes the surrounding situation of the vehicle body on the basis of corrected image data that is generated when the image-rotation section 4 rotates the image data for the correction.
