A headlight control system controls a headlight of a moving object. The moving object includes the headlight including a plurality of light emission units, and an imaging unit configured to capture images of circumstances in front. The headlight control system includes an irradiation pattern controller configured to perform control for changing at least one of presence or absence of light emission and a degree of light emission of each of the light emission units to change an irradiation pattern of the headlight to one of a plurality of irradiation patterns, an imaging controller configured to perform control such that the imaging unit captures the images of the circumstances in front for each of the irradiation patterns to acquire captured images, and a learning unit configured to learn an irradiation pattern suitable for the circumstances in front based on captured images captured for each of the irradiation patterns.

Headlight control system

A solar battery system includes a first electronic control unit disposed in a vehicle cabin of a vehicle, the first electronic control unit including a control unit repeating a charging period and a stop period during a period of time from ignition-off to ignition-on of the vehicle, the charging period being a period of charging the electric storage device with generated electric power of a solar battery, the stop period being a period of stopping the charging of the electric storage device with the generated electric power of the solar battery. The control unit sets a length of each of the charging periods shorter as the temperature in the vehicle cabin is higher at the time of starting each of the charging periods.

Solar battery system

A semiconductor module is disclosed that includes a semiconductor element, a capacitor configured to be electrically connected to the semiconductor element and a heat sink, wherein the semiconductor and the capacitor are stacked with each other via the heat sink, and wherein the semiconductor element is disposed in a position overlapping with the capacitor as viewed from a stack direction.
