A control device acquires a speed of another vehicle and a position of the other vehicle, selects a determination scheme according to the speed of the other vehicle from among a plurality of determination schemes, applies the position of the other vehicle to the selected determination scheme to determine whether the other vehicle enters a second lane adjacent to a first lane in which the other vehicle travels from the first lane, and controls the vehicle based on a result of the determination.

Control device, control method, and storage medium

A driving assistance device includes a storage device storing a program and a hardware processor connected to the storage device. The hardware processor reads and executes the program stored in the storage device to recognize a risky physical object located near a mobile object on the basis of an output of a physical object detection device, cause at least one speaker to output a notification sound on the basis of a position of the risky physical object, and when the notification sound is output, cause the at least one speaker to output a first notification sound if the risky physical object is located in a first region including a region in front of the mobile object and cause the at least one speaker to output a second notification sound if the risky physical object is located in a second region including a region behind the mobile object. The first notification sound is a sound having a pitch different from that of the second notification sound.

Driving assistance device and driving assistance method

A driving assistance device includes a storage device configured to store a program and a processor connected to the storage device. The processor executes the program stored in the storage device to acquire information about a target position decided on as a position relative to another moving object located in a second lane when a host moving object merges or changes lanes from a first lane to the second lane and cause a speaker to output a sound obtained by combining a basic sound for acceleration guidance with an additional sound for the acceleration guidance having a higher frequency than the basic sound for the acceleration guidance when the host moving object should accelerate such that position alignment related to a traveling direction of the host moving object is performed with respect to the target position.

A mobile object control device acquires an image obtained by imaging an outside space of a mobile object, determines whether the mobile object is in a merging lane closer to a merged lane between two merging lanes, determines whether another mobile object is in a merging lane farther from the merged lane between the merging lanes in front of the mobile object when it is determined that the mobile object is in the closer merging lane, sets one or more merging position candidates at which merging of the mobile object to the merged lane is completed and which are positions between mobile objects in the merged lane, and selects a merging position at which the merging of the mobile object to the merged lane is completed from the one or more merging position candidates.

Mobile object control device, mobile object control method, and storage medium

A moving object control device includes a storage device storing a program and a hardware processor. The hardware processor executes the program stored in the storage device to acquire an image by imaging a space outside of a moving object, determine whether or not the moving object is traveling in a merging lane on the basis of the image, detect a first reference object and a second reference object according to image processing when it is determined that the moving object is traveling in the merging lane, virtually set a plurality of third reference objects extending parallel to the first reference object at a first prescribed width in a hypothetical plane virtually viewed from above, and derive information about a location where the merging lane disappears on the basis of at least a first intersection between the second reference object and the plurality of third reference objects.

Moving object control device, moving object control method, and storage medium

A control device for a mobile object including one or more imaging devices, the control device includes an image acquisition unit configured to acquire an image of an external environment of the mobile object from the one or more imaging devices, a correction unit configured to perform distortion reduction processing for reducing distortion of an image for each of one or more regions included in an image acquired from the one or more imaging devices, and a recognition unit configured to recognize the external environment of the mobile object based on an image on which the distortion reduction processing has been performed. The correction unit is configured to determine the one or more regions to be a target of the distortion reduction processing in accordance with a predetermined rule according to a moving scene of the mobile object.
