A sound data processing device includes: a sound data acquisition unit configured to acquire first sound data that is data about a sound whose sound image is localized in a cabin of a vehicle; an object specifying unit configured to specify an attention object that is an object to which an occupant of the vehicle directs attention; a sound data processing unit configured to generate second sound data that is data about the sound for which a sound relating to the attention object is emphasized in comparison with the first sound data; and a sound data output unit configured to output the second sound data to an output device that outputs a sound to the occupant.

Sound data processing device and sound data processing method

A boarding permission determination device includes a controller that receive a signal from a sensor that is mounted on a vehicle to detect at least a prescribed movement of a person in the periphery of the vehicle while the vehicle is traveling. The controller is configured to determine a stop location for the vehicle and register information indicating characteristics of the person in a storage device when the prescribed movement of the person was detected while the vehicle is traveling. The controller is configured to control the vehicle such that the vehicle stops at the stop location that was determined. The controller is configured to control a prescribed device mounted on the vehicle such that the person can board the vehicle after the vehicle is stopped at the stop location, after recognizing the person that was detected while the vehicle was traveling using the information.

Boarding permission determination device and boarding permission determination method

The disclosure includes a first information acquiring device configured to acquire motion information related to a motion of an occupant; a second information acquiring device configured to acquire operation information related to an input operation to a predetermined onboard device, the input operation being based on the motion of the occupant; a memory configured to store the motion information and the operation information in association with each other; a motion detecting device configured to detect the motion of an occupant; and a controller configured to, when the motion information related to the motion of the occupant detected by the motion detecting device is stored in the memory, output command information related to an operation command to the onboard device by referring to the operation information stored in association with the motion information.

Control device and control method for vehicle-mounted equipment

The present disclosure including determining that a state of a load on an occupant in a vehicle on the basis of at least one of a traveling state of the vehicle (), an external environment state of the vehicle, and a state of the occupant in the vehicle, and executing a dialogue with the occupant by executing a dialogue program corresponding to the state of the load on the occupant.

Voice dialogue device, voice dialogue system, and control method for voice dialogue system

A travel information processing apparatus includes a voice input device configured to input voice data of a user, an output device configured to specify an object by estimating from the voice data based on a word extracted from the voice data and indicating the object around a traveling route and a word extracted from the voice data and indicating a positional relationship of the object and output image data or voice data indicating a specified object; and a travel information processor configured to change a traveling motion of a subject vehicle based on the specified object.

Travel information processing apparatus and processing method

A device control apparatus includes a detector which detects sound; and a controller which controls a plurality of devices. The plurality of devices includes a first device which is not related to operation of a vehicle and a second device which is related to the operation of the vehicle. The controller is configured to: recognize voice of a user by using data of the sound detected by the detector; identify a type of an operation target device from a plurality of the devices and operation content of the operation target device, based on the voice recognized; notify a user of start of activating the first device by the operation content identified and activate the first device by the operation content identified when the operation target identified is the first device; and notify the user to request a response before the controller activates the second device by the operation content identified when the operation target identified is the second device.

Device control apparatus, and control method for controlling devices

An information processing apparatus includes a getting-off determining unit that determines whether or not an occupant gets off a vehicle, a location determining unit that determines whether or not an electronic device to be used by the occupant in the vehicle is at a predetermined position in the vehicle, and a notification control unit that gives a predetermined notification to the occupant when the getting-off determining unit determines that the occupant gets off and the location determining unit determines that the electronic device is not at the predetermined position.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

A boarding/deboarding point providing system includes a probe vehicle group, a data server, and an on-board unit or a mobile terminal. When vehicle data transmitted from the probe vehicle group are input, the data server extracts a boarding/deboarding point suitable for boarding a vehicle or deboarding a vehicle from the vehicle data, and stores the point while updating the boarding/deboarding point information database. When a request for boarding/deboarding point information is received from the on-board unit or the mobile terminal, the boarding/deboarding point information stored in the boarding/deboarding point information database is searched for a boarding/deboarding point that meets the request conditions, and the search result that includes the boarding/deboarding point is transmitted to the on-board unit or the mobile terminal.

Boarding/deboarding point providing system, data server, and boarding/deboarding point providing method

The information processing device includes a communicatorfor communicating with a vehicleand a mobile device operated by a user, and a controllerfor controlling the communicator, and the controlleracquires position information indicating the position of the vehicleand position information indicating the position of the mobile device via the communicator, and outputs sound data for identifying the vehiclefrom the communicatorto the mobile device in accordance with the distance between the position of the vehicleand the position of the mobile device.
