  • Publication number: 20230409739
    Abstract: An information processing device that executes storage control for personal information data that are stored in a storage unit in an on-vehicle device that executes an operation that is based on personal information data that are stored in the storage unit has a controller. The controller executes a deletion process that deletes personal information data that are stored in the storage unit, in a case where an end of use of a vehicle is detected, and executes a registration process that stores, in the storage unit, personal information data of a user for the on-vehicle device that are acquired from an external device, in a case where a start of use of a vehicle is detected.

  • Patent number: 11711652
    Abstract: A reproduction device includes: an acquisition unit configured to acquire sound source information about a sound source; a determination unit configured to determine an output characteristic of the sound source with a virtual speaker arranged in a virtual space, based on a positional relationship between the virtual speaker and a virtual listener arranged in the virtual space; and a reproduction unit configured to reproduce the sound source with a real speaker arranged in a real space, based on the output characteristic determined by the determination unit.

  • Publication number: 20230098809
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a control unit configured to execute a scene detection process, a parameter extraction process, and an output process. The scene detection process detects a scene from an input content. The parameter extraction process extracts a realistic sensation parameter for wave control that corresponds to a scene that is detected by the scene detection process. The output process outputs a wave signal for the content that is produced by processing sound data of the input content by a realistic sensation parameter that is extracted by the parameter extraction process.

  • Patent number: 11295608
    Abstract: In a travel status recording apparatus, a data acquisition unit acquires first travel status data and second travel status data indicating a travel status in relation to a vehicle. An event detection unit detects a predetermined event that occurs in relation to the vehicle based on the first travel status data acquired. In response to the predetermined event being detected, a data analysis unit analyzes the second travel status data using artificial intelligence. A recording control unit records, in a storage unit, an analysis result of the second travel status data in association with event detection information in relation to the predetermined event.

  • Patent number: 11277589
    Abstract: A travel status recording apparatus records an image captured by a camera mounted on a vehicle, identifies personal information included in the captured image, and masks the personal information in the captured image. A server acquires a masked image corresponding to the captured image in which the personal information is masked from the travel status recording apparatus. The server determines, in response to a request from a third party, whether to restore the personal information included in the acquired masked image based on a preset restoration level. In a case where the server determines to restore the personal information, the server restores the personal information. In a case where the server determines not to restore the personal information, the server conceals the personal information.
