A straddle type vehicle includes a front detection unit configured to detect an object in front of a self-vehicle, a first determination unit configured to determine whether there is an avoidance space for avoiding contact with the object by turning in a case where there is a possibility of contact of the self-vehicle with the object, and a notification unit configured to give notification of information regarding the avoidance space in a case where the first determination unit determines that there is the avoidance space. The notification unit gives notification of information, as the information regarding the avoidance space, indicating that it is possible to avoid contact with the object by turning in a travel lane in which the self-vehicle is traveling.

Straddle type vehicle, method for controlling the same, control apparatus, and storage medium

A vehicle including a lamp body that irradiates surroundings of the vehicle, comprising a control unit configured to control an irradiation range of the lamp body according to a speed of the vehicle, wherein the control unit controls the irradiation range according to the speed to be different when the speed increases and when the speed decreases.

Vehicle, control method for vehicle, and storage medium

A straddle type vehicle has a rear detection unit configured to detect an object in a detection region behind a vehicle, and a notification unit configured to notify a driver when the object is detected by the rear detection unit. The straddle type vehicle comprises: an acquisition unit configured to acquire travel information of the straddle type vehicle; an identification unit configured to identify a turning direction and a turning radius of the straddle type vehicle on the basis of the travel information; and a change unit configured to change straight-ahead-travel detection region settings for the rear detection unit on the basis of the turning direction and turning radius.

Straddle type vehicle, method for controlling straddle type vehicle, and storage medium

A device detects a behavior of a straddle-type vehicle in a yaw direction and in a roll direction, determines whether a traveling state of the straddle-type vehicle is a first state or a second state closer to a straight traveling state than the first state, and estimates a turning radius of the straddle-type vehicle. In a case where it is determined that the traveling state is the first state, a turning radius is estimated by a first method based on a detection result of the behavior in the yaw direction. In a case where it is determined that the traveling state is the second state, the turning radius is estimated by a second method based on a detection result of the behavior in the roll direction.

Estimation device and straddle-type vehicle

An assembly apparatus is constituted to include positioning mechanisms for aligning the positions of side panels and a roof panel. For example, a front positioning mechanism includes a first base portion disposed on a first distal end arm of a front side robot, roof positioning members and side panel positioning members supported displaceably by the first base portion, a right front beam member and a left front beam member extending along a vehicle widthwise direction from the first base portion, a first left marking member and a first right marking member disposed at respective distal ends of the beam members, and a left visual sensor and a right visual sensor for detecting positions of each of the first left marking member and the first right marking member.

Assembly apparatus

High precision work is performed on a work target (workpiece) during conveyance, irrespective of the oscillations accompanying conveyance. A work method includes steps of: predicting a predicted oscillation pattern occurring in a workpiece (W) afterwards from the measurement results of oscillation occurring in the workpiece (W) during conveyance by way of a workpiece conveyance device (); controlling a robot () so as to operate at an oscillation according to the predicted oscillation pattern thus predicted; detecting oscillation occurring in the robot () during the step of controlling; and comparing the oscillation occurring in the robot () with the predicted oscillation pattern, and in the case of differing, adjusting so that the oscillation of the robot () matches the predicted oscillation pattern, in which each of these steps is completed before the robot () performs work on the workpiece (W).
