Abstract: An in-vehicle apparatus links up with a mobile device that executes an application. A memory of the in-vehicle apparatus stores acoustic data of a sound relevant to the application, and a receiver receives a direction signal transmitted from the mobile device at a timing specified by the application. An output part of the in-vehicle apparatus outputs the sound based on the acoustic data stored in the memory via a speaker in response to the direction signal received by the receiver.

Abstract: When displaying a peripheral image in the case where a traveling speed of a vehicle is lower than a predetermined threshold value, it is possible to provide a user with a state of a necessary area of the vehicle without switching a display mode. In an image display system, when the traveling speed of the vehicle drops to below a predetermined threshold value such that an operation mode shifts into a front mode, the display mode becomes a front/side mode that simultaneously displays both a front area and a side area of the vehicle at the time that the front mode is started. A screen presented in the front/side mode can respond to various circumstances such as approaching an intersection, passing by another vehicle, and moving a vehicle toward a roadside. Accordingly, a user can monitor a state of a necessary area around the vehicle, without switching the display mode.

Abstract: An electronic device includes: an accommodation section that detachably accommodates a portable device; an eject unit that ejects the portable device accommodated in the accommodation section; and a guide mechanism that guides the portable device so that a first side of the portable device is positioned in the accommodation section and a second side thereof opposite to the first side is ejected from the accommodation section. The eject unit is arranged behind the accommodation section, and the accommodation section has an opening through which the second side of the portable device accommodated in the accommodation section is exposed.

Abstract: A technology for displaying images on a displaying apparatus mounted on a vehicle is provided. In response to a predetermined instruction signal, synthetic images viewed from a virtual viewpoint around and above the periphery of the vehicle are generated based on a plurality of images acquired from a plurality of cameras for capturing the periphery of the vehicle. The plurality of synthetic images, in which a position of a viewpoint moves sequentially varies such that the synthetic images move in a circle around the vehicle, are sequentially output to the displaying apparatus. Accordingly, the user monitors the entire circumference of the vehicle from the viewpoint where the user sees the vehicle in front of user's eyes, so that the user can intuitively recognize the positional relation between the vehicle and an obstacle from one screen.

Abstract: A technology for intuitively recognizing a positional relation between a vehicle and an object is provided. In an image display system, in a display image provided to a driver, the side region of the vehicle in a direction indicated by a direction instructing device is displayed in large size. Accordingly, the object that may contact with the vehicle is easily found out, so that a minor crash accident can be effectively prevented. Since a synthetic image viewed from a virtual viewpoint directed from a rear position of the vehicle toward the front side of the vehicle is displayed, the side area of the vehicle is displayed in the same visual field direction as the direction of the visual field of the driver. Accordingly, the driver can intuitively recognize the positional relation between the vehicle and the object, without undertaking complicated determination such as conducting coordinate transformation in his/her mind.

Abstract: A technology that does not require complicated operation to select a display mode is provided. In an image display system, a back mode stores a display mode that has been recently set as a current mode. When the display mode becomes the back mode next time, the display mode that has been recently set as a current mode is set as a current mode immediately after the display mode becomes the back mode. Accordingly, the driver does not need to perform the complicated operation to select a desired display mode each time the vehicle is reversed.

Abstract: An in-vehicle display apparatus includes a communication device and an in-vehicle device. The communication device acquires information posted by the user and geographical location data indicating the destination of the posted information and classifies the acquired posted information into categories. The communication device generates map data in which the posted information is displayed in a display format corresponding to the classified category at a position on the map specified by the geographical location data that is acquired together with the posted information and transmits the map data to the in-vehicle device. The in-vehicle device displays the received map data on, for example, a liquid crystal monitor.

Abstract: An in-vehicle display apparatus includes a communication device and an in-vehicle device. The communication device acquires posted information and geographical location data indicating the destination of the posted information. Then, the communication device generates map data in which the posted information is displayed at a position specified by the geographical location data which is acquired together with the posted information. In addition, the communication device changes a method of displaying the posted information on the generated map data on the basis of the time elapsed from the posting of the information to the acquisition of the posted information and the category of the posted information. Then, the communication device transmits the map data in which the display method of the posted information is changed to the in-vehicle device. The in-vehicle device displays the received map data on, for example, a liquid crystal monitor.

Abstract: A controller 140 of a vehicle-mounted device 100 detects that a tilt/eject button 132a is long and short depressed (step S2), further detects that the long depression is completed (YES in step S4), and controls a motor 141 so that a front face portion 120 operates against a main unit 110 after the long depression is completed (step S5). Therefore, after the long depression of the tilt/eject button 132a is completed, the front face portion 120 on which the tilt/eject button 132a is provided operates against the main unit 110.

Abstract: A vehicle-mounted device is arranged to be capable of attaching and detaching a portable device including a display unit. Also, the vehicle-mounted device includes a display unit and a controller and the controller detects that the portable device is attached or the portable device is detached, and turns off the display unit when it is detected that the portable device is attached. Thereby, the power consumption of the vehicle-mounted device can be reduced. Also, the same information is not displayed on the display unit and the display unit, and it is unnecessary to execute a process that mutually synchronizes the display timing of information displayed on both display units.

Abstract: Removal of a memory card from a memory card slot is prevented during copying update data from the memory card loaded in the memory card slot to a storage medium. A control unit 20 copies update data in a memory card loaded in a memory card slot 2b to a RAM 20C. During execution of the copy, the control unit 20 causes an open/close control unit 13 to hold a position of a display unit 3 at a position at which the memory card slot 2b is covered.
