    Abstract: A map information system includes a database management device that manages a map database used for driving support control of a vehicle. The map database includes traffic signal map information that indicates a position of a traffic signal. The traffic signal map information is associated with an evaluation value indicating certainty of the traffic signal map information for each traffic signal. The database management device recognizes a signal indication of the traffic signal at a verification position, based on camera image information indicating an image around the vehicle. The database management device recognizes behavior of the vehicle with respect to the verification position, based on vehicle state information and vehicle position information. Then, the database management device sets the evaluation value regarding the traffic signal at the verification position according to whether or not the behavior of the vehicle is consistent with the signal indication.

  • Publication number: 20210024082
    Abstract: A traffic signal interpretation system applied to a vehicle sets an action pattern of a vehicle with respect to a target area where a traffic signal is installed. Corresponding pattern information indicates a correspondence relationship between a lighting state of the traffic signal and the action pattern. Rule information indicates a rule that permits or prohibits a transition of the action pattern. The traffic signal interpretation system refers to the corresponding pattern information to acquire the action pattern corresponding to the lighting state as a provisional action pattern. When the provisional action pattern becomes one different from a previous action pattern, the traffic signal interpretation system sets a current action pattern by correcting a transition from the previous action pattern to the provisional action pattern so as to be consistent with the rule indicated by the rule information.

  • Publication number: 20210027076
    Abstract: A traffic signal display estimation system recognizes, based on the position information of a vehicle and a traffic signal information, a traffic signal included in a camera image, identifies a traffic signal display for each recognized traffic signal, and calculates, for each traffic signal, a first evaluation value indicating the certainty of the identified traffic signal display. The system integrates, based on a traffic-signal-to-traffic-signal relational information, a forward traffic signal that is ahead of the travelling direction and that the vehicle should follow and a traffic signal correlated with the forward traffic signal in terms of the traffic signal display, among a plurality of recognized traffic signals. When there is an inconsistency in traffic signal displays identified between a plurality of integrated traffic signals, the system determines a first estimated traffic signal display of the forward traffic signal, based on the first evaluation value for each traffic signal.
