Abstract: An open vehicle includes a vehicle upper portion, a traveling device, an external sensor, and an ECU. The vehicle upper portion has a riding surface that forms a bottom surface of the riding space and is configured for a plurality of users to ride on. The ECU is configured to control the traveling device to cause the open vehicle to automatically travel. The ECU is configured to execute: a specific person recognition process to use the external sensor to recognize a specific person existing in an outside space; and an automatic travel control process to control the traveling device such that, when the specific person exists within a predetermined distance range, the traveling device executes at least one of moving the open vehicle away from the specific person and increasing a vehicle speed as compared to when the specific person does not exist within the range.

Abstract: In a stand-up vehicle having a vehicle upper part having a riding surface configured for a user to stand on, one or more electronic control units execute emergency situation detection processing for detecting an emergency of the user when receiving notification from the user or based on information from one or more sensors, safety posture determination processing for determining whether or not the user takes a safety posture based on information from one or more sensors after detecting the emergency, and upper limit speed management processing executed when detecting the emergency and determining that the user takes the safety posture. The upper limit speed management process increases the upper limit speed to be higher than the basic upper limit speed selected when the safety posture determination process determines that the user is not in the safety posture, or cancels the upper limit speed.

Abstract: A stand-up vehicle includes a vehicle upper portion, a handrail, one or more biometric information sensors, and one or more processors. The vehicle upper portion has a riding surface on which a user stands. The handrail is provided at an upper portion of the vehicle and is gripped by a user. The one or more biometric information sensors are at least one of a sensor provided on a handrail and a weight sensor provided below a riding surface and having the riding surface as a weight detection surface, and detect biometric information of the user. The one or more processors perform notification processing for notifying a user of biometric information detected by the one or more biometric information sensors.

Abstract: An electromotive compressor fixed to a front side of an engine includes a live part. A harness connection portion where a hinge-voltage harness is connected is provided in an outer peripheral area of a left side, in a vehicle width direction, of the electromotive compressor. A protecting member comprises a first cover portion which covers an area corresponding to the live part from the front side and a second cover portion which is provided continuously to the first cover portion and covers the harness connection portion from the front side with a specified distance from the harness connection portion. A low rigidity portion which has lower rigidity than the first covet portion and the second cover portion is provided at a continuous portion of the first cover portion and the second cover portion.

Abstract: An automatic traveling vehicle includes a vehicle structure including a first top plate, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to execute a storage mode when a storage execution condition is satisfied. The storage mode includes a storage posture formation process of causing the vehicle to automatically travel so as to take a predetermined storage posture together with a counterpart automatic traveling vehicle. In the storage posture, the vehicle is in a superposition state in which the vehicle overlaps with the counterpart vehicle in a plan view, or a parallel state in which the vehicle is lined up with the counterpart vehicle while the first top plate and a second top plate of the counterpart vehicle are standing and facing each other so as to be parallel to or substantially parallel to a vertical direction.

Abstract: This invention provides a novel processing technique from customer authentication to order price claim in online sales of commodities and the like. First, upon receiving a customer authentication request from a shop computer, a first key is generated and transmitted to a customer terminal. Upon receiving the first key and authentication information for that customer, a legitimacy confirmation of the key and authentication processing are performed, and if both of the processing results are affirmative, a second key is generated and transmitted to the shop computer with an order identification number. In a case where the second key and shop authentication information are received from the shop computer, the legitimacy confirmation of the key, authentication processing of the shop, and credit processing of the customer are performed.

Abstract: A novel order processing in a shop side computer that carries out online sales of goods and the like is realized by this invention. In the shop side computer, upon receiving an order request from a customer terminal, content information of the customer order is registered, and an identification number of the customer order and a shop code are transmitted to a settlement system. Next, upon receiving the identification number of the customer order and an operation key from the settlement system, the content information of the customer order is read out according to the identification number of the customer order, and the content information of the customer order, the operation key, and the shop authentication information are transmitted to the settlement system. After that, upon receiving information indicating that the acceptance of the customer order is possible from the settlement system, information indicating the acceptance of the order is stored for the customer order.

Abstract: When a browser on a user terminal operated by a seller sends a file of a content to be sold or a link destination URL, indicating the location of the content and information designating its sale price and charging condition to a WWW server on a support server machine, a product registration CGI generates a unique product number, stores thus generated product number, the sale price and the charging condition, path to the file of the content to be sold or the link destination URL in a product information table with then corresponding to one another, issues a product URL including the generated product number and URL of the sale CGI, and sends the product URL to the user terminal.

Abstract: When a browser on a user terminal operated by a seller sends a file of a content to be sold or a link destination URL indicating the location of the content and information designating its sale price to a WWW server on a support server machine, a product registration CGI generates a unique product number, stores thus generated product number, the sale price, a path to the file of the content or the link destination URL in a product information table with them corresponding with one another, issues a product URL including the generated product number and URL of the sales CGI, and sends the product URL to the user terminal. When a browser on a user terminal operated by the purchaser then sends this product URL to the WWW server, a sales CGI executes processes to charge the purchaser the sale price stored in the product information table corresponding to the product number in the product URL and notifies the user terminal of the path to the file or the link destination URL.
