Abstract: An object is to provide an approaching-body warning device capable of causing a drive to recognize, with enhanced reality, a direction and a location of a detection target approaching to an own vehicle. It is provided with a detection system including cameras, a radar sensor, and the like for detecting detection targets approaching to an own vehicle from various directions. A plurality of speakers is arranged in a cabin of the own vehicle to surround a driver. When the detection system determines that a detection target is approaching from any of various directions, an audio control unit provides, to the driver, enhanced reality of the approaching detection target by producing warning sound with surround signals output to a surround stereo audio system to form a sound field corresponding to an approaching direction.

Abstract: Transmission of stereo image data may be performed between devices, where a source device receives E-EDID from a sink device via DDC of an HDMI cable. This E-EDID contains information on 3D image data transmission modes supportable by the sink device.

The source device transmits 3D image data in the selected transmission mode to the sink device. The source device transmits information on the transmission mode for the 3D image data, to the sink device by using an AVI InfoFrame packet or the like. The sink device processes the 3D image data received from the source device in accordance with its transmission mode, thereby obtaining left and right eye image data.

Through a reserved line and a HPD line provided separately from a TMDS transmission line, an Ethernet™ signal is bidirectionally transmitted, and also, a SPDIF signal is transmitted from the sink device to the source device. The Ethernet™ signal bidirectionally transmitted between Ethernet™ transmitter/receiver circuits is differentially transmitted by an amplifier and is received by the amplifier. The SPDIF signal from a SPDIF transmitter circuit is common-mode transmitted from an adder and is received by the adder to be supplied to the SPDIF receiver circuit.

Abstract: Transmission of HDR image data is satisfactorily performed between apparatuses. A transmission apparatus (synchronized apparatus) transmits the HDR image data to a reception apparatus (source apparatus) over a transmission path. At that time, the transmission apparatus transmits information on a transmission method for and/or information on gamma correction for the HDR image data to the reception apparatus over the transmission path. The reception apparatus performs processing (decoding processing, gamma correction processing, and the like) on the received HDR image data, based on the information on the transmission method and/or the information on the gamma correction that are received. For example, the transmission apparatus receives from the reception apparatus the pieces of information on the transmission method and/or the gamma correction that the reception apparatus can support, selects the method that the reception apparatus can support, and thus uses the selected method.

Abstract: A lens 311 of a plug 31 converts a light signal from an optical fiber cable 20 to light of a predetermined divergence angle in order to emit the light. A plug housing 315 fixes the optical fiber cable 20 and the lens 311. The lens 311 is positioned such that the light signal from the optical fiber cable 20 becomes the light of the predetermined divergence angle at an emission surface 20a side of the optical fiber cable 20. The light signal emitted from the plug 31 becomes dispersed when entering into the eyeball of a nearby person, and therefore can be prevented from exerting adverse effect on visual function and the like.

Abstract: A collimator lens 311 emits by converting a light signal from an optical fiber cable 20 to a collimated light, for example. The collimator lens 311 is retained in a plug housing 315 coupled to a reception side optical connector of the light signal. When the plug housing 315 is not coupled to the reception side optical connector, the pressing portion 313a sets the position of the collimator lens 311 at a position at which the emitted light signal has a predetermined divergence angle. When the optical connectors of the transmission side and the reception side are not connected, the light signal emitted from the optical connector of the transmission side is dispersed, and therefore emission of the light signal is prevented from giving a bad influence to a visual perception function or the like.

Abstract: Lenses 311a that collect an entering light signal to a light transmission path or a light detection unit is provided in a plug housing 315 coupled to a transmission side optical connector of the light signal. In the housing 315, the light transmission path or the light detection unit is retained for each lens 311a. In the housing 315, attachment portions 316L, 316R that attach the housing 315 to the transmission side optical connector is provided in an array direction of a plurality of lenses. In the lenses 311a, an entrance range of the light signal that is collectable to the light transmission path or the light detection unit is expanded in a direction orthogonal to the array direction of the lenses. Even if force is exerted in a turning direction about an axis at the array direction LP of the lenses, the entering light signal can be collected to the light transmission path or the light detection unit, in order to perform robust optical communication.
