The second task extracted by the second task extracting unit is suggested through the user interface.

Abstract: A vehicle switches between an autonomous driving state, in which the vehicle is responsible for implementing driving tasks including vehicle steering, vehicle driving, vehicle braking, and periphery monitoring, and a manual driving state or a driving assistance state, in which a driver of the vehicle is responsible for implementing at least one of the driving tasks. A processor implements the driving tasks based on a vehicle behavior plan, which indicates a vehicle behavior scheduled in the autonomous driving state, and generates a second task priority plan, which is the vehicle behavior plan until the driving mode is switched from the autonomous driving state to the manual driving state, such that a convenient finish time, at which a second task implemented by the driver in the autonomous driving state is conveniently finished, comes before the driving mode switching.

Abstract: The mobile device is provided with an operation restriction unit, and the operation restriction unit determines which seat of the vehicle is being operated from the captured image of the back camera. When determining that the captured image is captured by the driver's seat, the operation restriction unit restricts the operation of the process execution unit. Accordingly, in the mobile device, it is possible to prevent the mobile device from being operated in the driver's seat, which is appropriately restricted from being operated in the driver's seat in a vehicle or the like.

Abstract: An automatic driving proposal device or an automatic driving proposal method is used for a vehicle that selects either a state of an automatic driving or a state of a manual driving by an occupant. The automatic driving proposal device or the automatic driving proposal method performs a driving change request to the occupant in the state of the automatic driving, determines whether the automatic driving is possible in the state of the manual driving, calculates a calculation value corresponding to a distance or a prediction time or calculates a change index, and proposes the automatic driving to the occupant on a necessary condition of determining that the automatic driving is possible and also determining that the calculation value is higher than a threshold value or determining that the change index is lower than a threshold value.

Abstract: An HMI control device includes an automation level acquisition portion and a display control unit. The automation level acquisition portion acquires an autonomous driving level determined by a driving control device. The display control portion controls an image display operation of an HMI device according to the autonomous driving level acquired by the automation level acquisition portion. When terminating a high autonomous driving level as the autonomous driving level, the display control portion controls the HMI device to provide an action instruction display that instructs the driver to take a low-level associated state so as to handle a low autonomous driving level. The low autonomous driving level is the autonomous driving level under which an in-vehicle system including the driving control device is prohibited from performing at least one of a lateral motion control realized by performing steering and a longitudinal motion control realized by performing acceleration/deceleration.
