Abstract: The present disclosure provides a route conversion apparatus which enables, in a case where a first route based on first map data is converted into a second route based on second map data in a range which is narrower than a section of an electronic map, an error of the converted second route to be detected, and conversion into a correct second route to be performed. The route conversion apparatus 100 includes a route conversion unit 122a that generates a second route RT2 based on location reference information LRI of a first route RT1, a storage unit 121 that stores a route verification model RVM, and a route verification unit 122b that inputs the second map data MD2, the location reference information LRI, and the second route RT2 to the route verification model RVM to verify whether the second route RT2 is correct or incorrect.

Abstract: The present invention provides a technology than can continue automatic driving even when a sudden event has occurred such that a vehicle cannot travel in a recommended lane. This recommended lane determination device outputs a plurality of candidates for recommended lanes in which it is recommended that the vehicle travel, and sets a preference level for each candidate, said preference level expressing the degree to which it is recommended that the vehicle travel in said candidate, and then outputs said preference levels.

Abstract: A digital data receiver apparatus includes: a view suspend detector that detects a suspend instruction by a user of suspending audio output and video output; and a controller that, when the view suspend detector detects a suspend instruction, controls a data receiver, a demultiplexer, an audio decoder, an audio output unit, a video decoder and a video output unit so that power supplying to or operation of each of these units is stopped in at least two steps. Thereby, power supplying to or operation of the respective units can be stopped step by step after the detection of the view stop instruction. As a result, if the user requests to start viewing within a short time after the view stop request, the viewing can be resumed in a short time period.

Abstract: A resource reservation management apparatus that manages equipment resources connected to an AV network includes an EPG processing device for acquiring starting/ending time information of a broadcast program from an EPG (electronic program guide) superimposed on a broadcast wave, a frequency band information processing device for acquiring frequency band information of the program from the EPG, a frequency band information processing device for time managing an AV network frequency band resource reservation management table, a controller, and a communication interface using an allocated secured frequency band at the start time of the reserved program. Upon receiving a reservation request, the controller acquires the frequency band at the starting/ending time information of the reserved program and, with reference to the table, determines whether the frequency band of the reserved program can be allocated so that, when the band can be allocated, reservation of the band is registered in the table.

Abstract: An AV device controller for controlling networked devices with a graphical user interface (GUI). An interface section obtains GUI information from a controlled device. A GUI storage section stores the GUI information. A GUI display section displays GUI parts. An input device selects the GUI parts. By selecting a GUI part displayed on the GUI display section with the input device, a predetermined processing assigned to the GUI part is started.
