Abstract: A dialogue system that provides a driver with driving advice includes driving performance evaluation means for evaluating a driving performance of the driver estimated based on driving performance information using a normative driving performance as a reference; response evaluation means for evaluating a driver's response to the provided driving advice based on a change in the driving performance of the driver after provision of the driving advice; and output control means for adjusting contents of the driving advice provided to the driver based on the result of evaluation of the driving performance of the driver and setting a mode of expressing the driving advice based on the result of evaluation of the driver's response to the provided driving advice.

Abstract: A door lock control device prevents deterioration in anti-theft property of a vehicle by restricting unjust cancellation of a locked state of a door of the vehicle. In-vehicle operation detecting means detects a predetermined operation performed in a compartment of the vehicle. Locked state canceling means cancels the locked state of the door when the predetermined operation is detected by the in-vehicle operation detecting means. Unjust act detecting means detects an unjust act applied to the vehicle. Locked state cancellation prohibiting means prohibits cancellation of the locked state by the locked state canceling means after the unjust act is detected by the unjust act detecting means.

Abstract: An anti-theft system for a vehicle includes an on-vehicle machine (10) including reporting means (28) configured to report by radio an illegal activity affecting the vehicle to a designated opponent to be reported to in a case where the illegal activity is detected; and an external facility (30), the external facility (30) including obstruction radio wave detection means (36) configured to detect a radio wave obstructing the radio-report by the reporting means; and illegal activity prevention means (38, 40, 42) configured to prevent the illegal activity in a case where the radio wave is detected by the obstruction radio wave detection means (36). Jamming the radio signal from the vehicle is detected and triggers taking a photograph of the vehicle and its surroundings.

Abstract: Disclosed is an antitheft apparatus for a vehicle, which is installed on a vehicle and configured to allow operation of predetermined on-vehicle devices only when a user ID code obtained from a user of the vehicle and a reference ID code registered on the vehicle are identical. The antitheft apparatus is provided with a setting unit for adding or deleting the reference ID code to or from the vehicle and a transmitting unit for transmitting the reference ID code registered on the vehicle to a predetermined communications station. A vehicle antitheft system using such apparatus is also disclosed.

Abstract: An anti-theft system for a vehicle, includes certifying means of an electronic key for getting in the vehicle, human body certification information certifying means, door lock control means for unlocking a vehicle door in a case where the electronic key is certified by the certifying means of the electronic key for getting in the vehicle and the human body certification information of the person is confirmed by the human body certification information certifying means in a state where the door is unlocked; memory means for memorizing ID information of the electronic key; certifying means of an electronic key for starting an engine; and engine starting control means for starting the engine of the vehicle in a case where the electronic key is certified by the certifying means of the electronic key for starting the engine and the electronic key is an electronic key whose ID information is memorized in the memory means, after the vehicle door is unlocked by the door lock control means.

Abstract: A control system for improving the security level of a security device. A portable device is provided with a communication function and has a portable device ID code. A security controller includes a memory for recording a controller ID code. The security controller communicates with the portable device to determine whether the portable device ID code matches the controller ID code, and controls deactivation of security functions for a door lock driver and an engine controller based on the determination result. In response to a restriction request signal, the management apparatus transmits a function restriction signal to the security controller. The security controller prohibits or restricts control of the door lock driver or the engine controller when receiving the function restriction signal and communicating with the portable device.

Abstract: A security control system for improving security. The security control system includes a portable device, having a communication function and a portable device ID code. A security controller includes a memory for recording a controller ID code. The security controller communicates with the portable device and determines whether the portable device ID code matches the controller ID code. In accordance with the determination, the security controller selectively deactivates the security functions of a door lock driver and an engine controller. The security controller records and registers the portable device ID code as the controller ID code in the memory and transmits a registration signal containing the portable device ID code. A portable device management apparatus receives the registration signal from the security controller and manages the portable device based on the registration signal.
