An information processing device is provided, which includes a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: acquire a vehicle size of a vehicle and an overhead view image of a parking lot captured in a satellite image taken of ground-level by an artificial satellite; and propose, to an occupant of the vehicle, a parking lot in which the vehicle is able to park, the parking lot being designated based on the acquired vehicle size and the acquired overhead view image.

Information processing device

An information processing device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to acquire a satellite image of ground level captured by an artificial satellite, and propose a travel route to a destination based on road information related to a road on which a vehicle can travel to the destination, the road information having been determined based on the acquired satellite image.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and non-transitory storage medium

An output device, including: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory, the processor configured to: acquire an objective that a user wishes to achieve after boarding a vehicle; and output a candidate site having a shortest total time among candidate sites that would enable the objective to be achieved, the total time including a predicted required time from a current location of the user and a predicted waiting time at a parking lot associated with the candidate site.

Output device

An information processing device includes an acquisition section that acquires a satellite image of a ground area captured by an artificial satellite, and a control section that controls onboard equipment installed at a vehicle appearing in the satellite image based on an analysis result of the satellite image that the acquisition section has acquired.

In a vehicle steering that sets a target steering reaction force to be applied to a steering wheel on the basis of a steering angle of the steering wheel and that applies the target steering reaction force to the steering wheel; the target steering reaction force is set so that the target steering reaction force changes on the basis of whether a steering mode of the steering wheel is turn steering in which the absolute value of a steered angle of a steered wheel is increased or return steering in which the absolute value of the steered angle is reduced; and the set target steering reaction force is applied to the steering wheel.

Vehicle steering system and vehicle steering method

A vehicle steering apparatus is an apparatus, mounted on a vehicle, for setting a target steering reaction force to be applied to a steering wheel on the basis of a steering angle and a vehicle speed and for performing reaction force control to apply the target steering reaction force, the vehicle steering apparatus provided with: a setting device for setting the target steering reaction force such that the target steering reaction force is less than a predetermined base steering reaction force if the vehicle speed is less than or equal to a predetermined base vehicle speed.
