Abstract: Provided is a mobile object control device configured to: recognize a surrounding situation of a mobile object; set, based on the recognized surrounding situation, a risk area in which positions of the surrounding situation are associated with risk values that are indicator values indicating degrees to which the mobile object is to avoid traveling; generate a target trajectory indicating a route along which the mobile object is to travel in future; cause the mobile object to travel along the generated target trajectory; and set at least one observation point in each of three or more provisional trajectories branching at a specific location ahead of the mobile object, and generate the target trajectory based on the risk area and the at least one observation point.

Abstract: One object of the present invention is to provide a method or apparatus for purifying target particles from high-concentration particles in a short time. The above problem can be solved by a method for purifying target particles, characterized in that the method comprises a step of sorting the target particles from a high concentration of non-target particles, wherein the sorting step is repeated for three times or more.

Abstract: Provided is a mobile object control device including: a storage medium having computer-readable instructions stored therein; and a processor connected to the storage medium, wherein the processor executes the computer-readable instructions to recognize an object which is located near a mobile object, set a risk which is an index value indicating a degree to which the mobile object should avoid entry on the basis of a position of the object, and generate a target trajectory for the mobile object to travel along so as to pass through a point at which the risk is low, and generating the target trajectory includes setting a plurality of first observation points at intervals in a traveling direction of the mobile object, setting one or more second observation points in each of a left direction and a right direction as seen from the mobile object for each of the plurality of first observation points, and searching for a point at which the risk is low on the basis of the risk at an observation point group including

Abstract: A driving wheel slip control system installed in a vehicle and having abnormality-detecting and failsafe functions. The system includes a slip status signal-generating device for generating a slip status signal indicative of whether or not the driving wheels of the vehicle are in a predetermined slip state, and a slip level signal-generating device for generating a slip level signal indicative of a degree of slip of the driving wheels. If a logical relationship between the slip status signal and the slip level signal is abnormal, and if the prime mover for driving the driving wheels is not accelerating and at the same time the slip level signal indicates the predetermined slip state, the slip level signal is determined to be abnormal. If an abnormality is detected during driving wheel slip control, an amount of reduction in output of the driving wheels is set to a predetermined amount to thereby continue driving wheel slip control, until the prime mover enters an operating condition other than acceleration.

Abstract: A fail-safe control circuit which requires that all control units produce control signals to operate a controlled device. The control units receive a feedback signal used for comparing with the control signal. When the control signal and the feedback signal do not match, a power supply interruption or disagreement signal causes a relay to disconnect power to the controlled device placing the controlled device in a fail-safe state.
