Abstract: An occupant protection apparatus to be applied to a vehicle includes a contact sensor, an occupant detector, an electromagnetic wave sensor, a control processor, and a protection processor. The contact sensor detects contact of the vehicle. The occupant detector detects whether there is an occupant who is wearing a medical device in the vehicle when the contact sensor detects the contact of the vehicle. The electromagnetic wave sensor detects an electromagnetic wave. The control processor controls the vehicle to reduce the electromagnetic wave inside the vehicle based on a detection result of the electromagnetic wave sensor. The protection processor performs a protection process of protecting the occupant who is wearing the medical device, based on a detection result of the electromagnetic wave sensor after the control processor has controlled the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a fatigue state detector, an information provider, and a processor. The fatigue state detector is configured to detect a fatigue degree of an occupant of the vehicle. The information provider is configured to provide various pieces of information related to traveling of the vehicle to the occupant. The processor is configured to change a frequency of providing the various pieces of the information by the information provider, depending on the fatigue degree of the occupant.

Abstract: A vehicle includes an information collector, a detector, a setting unit, an accelerator position detector, and a control processor. The information collector collects information regarding an occupant of the vehicle to be used for determining a mood of the occupant. The detector detects the mood of the occupant based on the information. The setting unit performs setting of a sound quality parameter of a traveling sound to be outputted to an interior of a vehicle compartment of the vehicle based on the mood of the occupant. The accelerator position detector detects an accelerator position of the vehicle. The control processor generates the traveling sound based on the sound quality parameter and the accelerator position, and outputs the traveling sound to the interior of the vehicle compartment of the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a mode transition determination unit, and a controller. The mode transition determination unit is configured to make a determination as to whether or not one or both of a driving mode and a travel mode have made a transition. The controller is configured to vary a speed of a state change of interior equipment, based on a result of the determination by the mode transition determination unit.

Abstract: An alarm type determining apparatus includes a state detector, an abnormality state determining unit, a traveling state determining unit, an alarm type determining unit, and a notifier. The state detector is configured to detect a state of a tire of a vehicle. The abnormality state determining unit is configured to determine an abnormality state of the tire, on the basis of the state of the tire detected by the state detector. The traveling state determining unit is configured to determine a traveling state of the vehicle. The alarm type determining unit is configured to determine an alarm type, on the basis of the abnormality state of the tire determined by the abnormality state determining unit and the traveling state of the vehicle determined by the traveling state determining unit. The notifier is configured to make a notification based on the alarm type determined by the alarm type determining unit.

Abstract: The rescue priority determination device comprises a driving condition information obtainer, a location information obtainer, and a rescue priority determinator. The driving condition information obtainer and the location information obtainer respectively are configured to obtain driving condition information and location information of a vehicle that made an emergency call, and the rescue priority determinator comprises one or more processors that is configured to determine the rescue priority level for the vehicle that made the emergency call based on the driving condition information and the location information. The rescue priority determinator determines that the need for rescue for the vehicle that made the emergency call is high and raises the rescue priority level based on determining that the vehicle that made the emergency call is at a standstill and that the location information of the vehicle that made the emergency call has changed.
