  • Patent number: 12656135
    Abstract: An in-vehicle apparatus includes a navigator, an area information extractor, a determiner, a notifier, a travel information obtainer, and a necessary time calculator. The navigator guides a vehicle in accordance with data on a traveling route. The area information extractor extracts a communication difficulty area and a restricted area from the data on the traveling route. The determiner determines whether the restricted area is included in the communication difficulty area. When the restricted area is included in the communication difficulty area, the notifier issues a preliminary notification indicating that the vehicle is to enter the restricted area to a predetermined notified party. The travel information obtainer acquires travel information on the traveling route. The necessary time calculator calculates necessary time to be taken from issuing the preliminary notification to passing through the communication difficulty area.

  • Patent number: 12528431
    Abstract: An in-vehicle apparatus to be applied to a vehicle includes a navigator, an area information extractor that extracts data on a communication difficulty area, a battery residual capacity monitor that monitors a traveling battery residual capacity, a traveling mode selector that receives a selected traveling mode, a travel information manager that determines a communication state in a traveling direction of the vehicle based on the data received from the area information extractor, and calculates a possible traveling distance of the vehicle based on the selected traveling mode and the traveling battery residual capacity, and a notifier that notifies the occupant of travel information on the vehicle. When determining that the vehicle is to travel in the communication difficulty area, the travel information manager proposes a switch to a traveling mode in which the vehicle is able to pass through the communication difficulty area to the occupant via the notifier.

  • Publication number: 20250206296
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a group data obtainer, a travel data obtainer, a determiner, and a control processor. The vehicle includes a first vehicle. The travel data obtainer acquires travel data including at least data on activation of an occupant protection system from one or more second vehicles including a particular vehicle. The control processor performs a control adapted to secure safety of an occupant of the first vehicle, based on the travel data when the determiner makes a determination that the travel data has been acquired from the particular vehicle. The control processor performs a control to notify a driver who drives the first vehicle of the travel data when the determiner makes a determination that the travel data has been acquired from a vehicle other than the particular vehicle.
