Abstract: A vehicle control device includes a counting unit that counts rotation of wheels by a sensor; and a rotation determination unit that determines the rotation based on a count value of each of the wheels obtained by the counting unit. Based on a movement distance of a vehicle, the movement distance of each of the wheels from rotation detection to the next rotation detection is defined as a rotation detection travel distance of each of the wheels. The rotation determination unit determines a rotation direction of a wheel a second time is a direction opposite to that detected for a first time when rotation detection is not performed even once for a first reference wheel having a rotation detection travel distance equal to or less than a rotation detection travel distance of the first determination target wheel while the rotation of the selected first determination target wheel is detected twice.

Abstract: A control device according to the present disclosure is to provide greater safety than in the conventional system for the occupant while alighting from the vehicle. A control device 10 is mounted on a vehicle 1. The control device 10 includes an attention degree estimation unit 11 and an alighting restriction unit 12. Based on at least one of results detected by an occupant sensor 3 for detecting motion of an occupant of the vehicle 1 and detected by a vehicle sensor 4 for detecting a state of the vehicle 1, the attention degree estimation unit 11 estimates a degree of attention of the occupant to an approaching object approaching the vehicle 1. When the degree of attention of the occupant estimated by the attention degree estimation unit 11 is below the predetermined threshold, the alighting restriction unit 12 causes at least one of the door opening/closing device 6, the audio output device 7, and the image display device 8 in the vehicle 1 to execute the alighting restriction operation.

Abstract: When one sensors fails and thus malfunctions during automatic parking of a vehicle, only the other sensor functions. Accordingly, depending on the behavior of the vehicle, the detection characteristics of the other sensor cause degradation in recognition of the vehicle, hindering the automatic parking from being continued. In processing S401, a determination is made whether or not an external recognition device, such as a camera or sonar, malfunctions. In processing S402, based on the determination on malfunction of the external recognition device, a determination is made whether or not to restrict vehicle speed or to restrict a path, with reference to restriction information for parking control. The restriction information for parking control provides information for restricting the vehicle speed in accordance with the malfunction of the camera, and for restricting the path in accordance with the malfunction of the sonar.
