Abstract: A vehicle object detection system configured to generate a judgement on whether a target object which has been detected to enter the detection area is an alert object, and to output the judgement to a warning which is configured to output a warning to a driver of the subject vehicle that a target object is present in the detection area behind the subject vehicle based on the judgement indicating that the target object is an alert object, wherein the system is configured to delay generating the judgment until a specified period of time has elapsed from a point in time when the target object is detected to enter a detectable area included in a field of view of a sensor, wherein the detectable area overlaps with only a part of the detection area.

Abstract: A vehicle detection system, for detecting a target vehicle in a detection area located behind a subject vehicle, is configured to judge whether a target vehicle which has been detected to approach the subject vehicle occupying a driving lane from behind in a first adjacent lane which is on one side of the driving lane and which target vehicle has been further detected to change from the first adjacent lane by diagonally passing the driving lane on to a second adjacent lane on the other side of the driving lane, is an alert object, and output a result of judgement to warn a driver of the subject vehicle that a target vehicle is present behind the subject vehicle, and determine, on the basis of a change of a lateral overlap of the target vehicle in the detection area, an overlap change rate.

Abstract: A vehicle detection system configured to judge whether a target vehicle, which has been detected to approach the subject vehicle from behind in a driving lane being used by the subject vehicle and being covered by the detection area is an alert object, to output a result of judgement to a warning which warns a driver of the subject vehicle that a target vehicle (60) is present in the driving lane behind the subject vehicle based on the judging the target vehicle to be an alert object, and to determine, on the basis of a change of a lateral overlap of the target vehicle in the detection area, an overlap change rate which is defined as a ratio of the change of the overlap to a specified time.

Abstract: Described is a doping technique that forms a stable amorphous silicon film and a stable polycrystalline silicon film at a low temperature and simultaneously that imparts conductivity in an atmospheric pressure environment. A method for producing a compound containing a bond between different elements belonging to Group 4 to Group 15 of the periodic table, the method including: applying, at a low frequency and atmospheric pressure, high voltage to an inside of an electric discharge tube obtained by attaching high-voltage electrodes to a metal tube or an insulator tube or between flat plate electrodes while passing an introduction gas, so as to convert molecules present in the electric discharge tube or between the flat plate electrodes into a plasma; and applying the plasma to substances to be irradiated, the substances to be irradiated being two or more elementary substances or compounds.
