An on-vehicle device is connectable to a mobile terminal by a plurality of cooperation methods by use of a plurality of wireless connections, and includes a first connection control unit which performs connection to a first mobile terminal by a first cooperation method by use of a first wireless connection, a second connection control unit which performs connection to the first mobile terminal by a second cooperation method by use of a second wireless connection, and a display unit which displays a connected state to the first mobile terminal, the display unit displays a cooperation method selection image including a first selection part to execute connection by the first connection control unit, and a second selection part to execute connection by the second connection control unit, and the first selection part and the second selection part are displayed concurrently in the display unit.

On-vehicle device and control method of on-vehicle device

A control method of an embodiment is a control process in which, based on management information of a first execution order that is an execution order of a hands free profile (HFP) connection process of attempting to establish an HFP connection to a pre-registered peripheral device and a second execution order that is an execution order of an audio video profile (AVP) connection process of attempting to establish an AVP connection to the peripheral device, an on-vehicle device connectable to the peripheral device by Bluetooth performs the HFP connection process in the first execution order and performs the AVP connection process in the second execution order, and when a connection with a certain peripheral device is not established within a predetermined time in one of the HFP connection process and the AVP connection process and the peripheral device is managed as an execution target of the other connection process in the management information, the on-vehicle device determines whether to restrain execution of the other connection process for the peripheral device thereafter.

Control method, on-vehicle device, and storage medium

A vehicular apparatus having at least one of a voice calling function and a voice recognition function, the apparatus comprising a voice input unit including a plurality of microphones, the voice input unit being disposed between a driver's seat and a passenger seat with respect to a vehicle width direction; and a control unit configured to control a directionality direction and a gain level of each of the plurality of microphones, wherein the control unit controls the directionality directions of the plurality of microphones in two directions, the two directions being a driver's seat side and a passenger seat side, and controls a gain level on the passenger seat side to be lower than a gain level on the driver's seat side.

Vehicular apparatus, vehicle, operation method of vehicular apparatus, and storage medium

A mobile terminal that performs communication with an onboard device includes: a communication control unit configured to control reception of information instructing to switch a sound source which is transmitted from the onboard device, the information including information indicating an application program which is executed in the terminal serving as the sound source, and transmission of a sound, played by an application program operating in a foreground of the terminal, to the onboard device; a switching unit configured to switch an application program having been in operation in a foreground until immediately before, to a background, on the basis of the received information instructing to switch a sound source, and to switch an application program having been in operation in a background until immediately before, to a foreground; and a sound control unit configured to stop playing a sound of the application program having been in operation in a foreground until immediately before, and to start playing a sound of the application program having been in operation in a background until immediately before, subsequently to the stop.
