Abstract: A speed maintenance instruction is output when a vehicle enters a next intersection and a predetermined condition is satisfied. It is determined whether a forward obstacle is disposed between the vehicle and the next intersection. A possibility of collision with the forward obstacle is determined if the forward obstacle is disposed between the vehicle and the next intersection and the vehicle maintains a current vehicle speed. When the possibility of collision is determined, the speed maintenance instruction is not output even if the predetermined condition is satisfied.

Abstract: A vehicular system mounted to a vehicle includes: a power-feeding device that wirelessly feeds power to a power-feeding object device; a communication device that performs wireless communication with a predetermined portable device; and a control device that controls to stop a power-feeding operation of the power-feeding device when the communication device performs wireless communication with the portable device.

Abstract: An object detecting apparatus may include a laser sensor and a contamination detection unit. The laser sensor emits a laser beam through an optical window to scan in a plane by changing an emission direction of the laser beam, and receives a reflected beam through the optical window from an object positioned in the plane. The contamination detection unit detects contamination of the optical window by positioning the emission direction of the laser beam in a downward direction towards a pavement surface. The contamination detection unit determines whether or not the optical window is contaminated based on whether the reflected laser beam from the pavement surface is received.
