  • Patent number: 11934098
    Abstract: The present invention provides a detection apparatus for detecting a position of a detection target including a diffraction grating pattern, comprising: an illuminator configured to illuminate the detection target with illumination light including a plurality of wavelengths; a wavelength selector including an incident surface on which diffracted light from the detection target is incident, and configured to select light of a specific wavelength from the diffracted light; and a detector configured to receive the light of the specific wavelength selected by the wavelength selector and detect the position of the detection target, wherein positions on the incident surface where light components of the plurality of wavelengths included in the illumination light are incident are different from each other, and wherein the wavelength selector controls each of the plurality of elements in accordance with the position on the incident surface.

  • Patent number: 11702094
    Abstract: The driving support apparatus includes a memory configured to store information representing a degree of familiarity with an environment for a driver of a vehicle; and a processor configured to detect an object existing around the vehicle based on a sensor signal representing a situation around the vehicle obtained by a sensor mounted on the vehicle, determine whether or not the object approaches the vehicle so that the object may collide with the vehicle, and notify the driver of the approach via a notification device mounted on the vehicle at a timing corresponding to the degree of familiarity with the environment for the driver of the vehicle, when it is determined that the object approaches the vehicle so that the object may collide with the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20220262122
    Abstract: An image collection apparatus includes a processor configured to detect a moving object from an image obtained by a camera and representing a predetermined point or a predetermined vehicle surroundings, estimate a distance between another object and the moving object detected from the image, determine whether there is a risk of collision between the moving object and the other object based on the distance, and store the image in a memory when it is determined that there is the risk of collision.
