Abstract: A vehicle driving support device performs extraneous matter notification for notifying an occupant of a vehicle that extraneous matter is adhered to a viewing-angle window part which is a part of a window of the vehicle in a viewing angle range of an onboard camera which is mounted in the vehicle such that an outside view from the vehicle is imaged from the inside of the vehicle or a camera lens which is a lens of the onboard camera, performs a process of detecting the extraneous matter adhering to the viewing-angle window part or the camera lens when the vehicle is stopped, and does not perform the extraneous matter notification even if the extraneous matter adhering to the viewing-angle window part or the camera lens is detected when the vehicle is stopped and is not in a state in which the vehicle is predicted to be about to start traveling.

Abstract: A control device outputs an operation signal of a work equipment and a swing body for moving a work equipment to a loading point when receiving a loading command signal. The control device does not output a dumping operation signal for causing the bucket to dump earth in a case where an azimuth direction in which the swing body faces is within a first region from a starting point azimuth direction to a predetermined reference azimuth direction, the starting point azimuth direction being an azimuth direction in which the swing body faces when the loading command signal is received. The control device outputs the dumping operation signal in a case where the azimuth direction is within a second region from the reference azimuth direction to an end point azimuth direction in which the swing body faces when the work equipment is positioned at the loading point.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a solid-state imaging device. In a pixel array section in the solid-state imaging device, a vertical signal line is provided right under power supply wiring apart from a floating diffusion region in order to reduce load capacitance of the vertical signal line. Furthermore, the power supply wiring is wired to make a cover rate of each vertical signal line with respect to the power supply wiring nearly uniform. As a result, it is possible to suppress variation of load capacitance of the vertical signal line for each pixel. It becomes possible to suppress deviation in a black level, variation of charge transfer, and variation of settling. It becomes possible to obtain an image with higher quality.
