AIMING SYSTEM AND AIMING METHOD FOR VEHICLE HEADLIGHT DEVICE
Provided is a headlight device equipped with a variable light distribution system that performs ADB control, wherein a glare suppression function provided by ADB control is enabled without adjusting the optical axis of the headlight device at times such as when the headlight device is replaced. An aiming system for a vehicle headlight device comprises an onboard camera that captures a forward image of a host vehicle, a headlight device that sets a light irradiation range in front of the host vehicle, and a control device that performs variable light distribution control for specifying a light reduction or a light shielding region in the light irradiation range on the basis of the image captured by the onboard camera. During initial setting, the control device: sets, in the vehicle headlight device, a specific unit of irradiation at which a specific position in the image captured by the onboard camera, which has captured an image of an illuminated surface for calibration, will be an irradiation position; detects a deviation between the specific position and the irradiation position of the specific unit of irradiation in the image captured by the onboard camera that has captured the image of the illuminated surface for calibration; and corrects the output of the variable light distribution control in accordance with the deviation.

DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEM, VEHICLE, RECORDING MEDIUM CONTAINING COMPUTER PROGRAM, AND DRIVER ASSISTANCE METHOD
The application is to provide a driver assistance system, etc. that makes it possible to reduce a risk in consideration of a blind spot region formed by an obstacle and appropriately provide driver assistance in, for example, automated driving of a vehicle. In particular, upon detecting the presence of a blind spot region together with an obstacle, a vehicle control system 10 acquires travel sound related information regarding a subject vehicle 1 with reference to the blind spot region as viewed from the subject vehicle 1, and determines whether or not a travel sound is recognizable in the blind spot region, based on the acquired travel sound related information. Thus, the vehicle control system 10 carries out a driving condition setting process of setting a driving condition of the subject vehicle 1 such as a route and a speed, based on a result of the determination.

The present invention comprises: a hood that opens and closes an accommodation space in which at least a drive motor is disposed; a link mechanism that is attached to the hood; and a flank that is attached to the link mechanism and that is accommodated in the accommodation space in a state in which the hood is closed. The flank is configured to be movable at least in the front-rear direction via the operation of the link mechanism, and is also configured to be movable forward in a state in which the hood is opened. Consequently, since the flank is configured to be movable forward in a state in which the hood is opened, the flank can be moved to the front side and a stored object can be taken in and out, thereby improving the convenience with which the stored object can be taken into and out from the flank.

A vehicle includes an amount-of-power calculator, a power reception necessity determiner, a power transmission permissibility determiner, and a power transmission determiner. The amount-of-power calculator calculates an amount of necessary power for the vehicle. The power reception necessity determiner determines whether or not power reception of the vehicle from one or more other vehicles is necessary. The power transmission permissibility determiner determines whether or not power transmission from the vehicle to the one or more other vehicles is permissible. When two or more out of the vehicle and the one or more other vehicles make requests for the power reception, the power transmission determiner compares calculation results of the amount-of-power calculator of the vehicle and respective amount-of-power calculators of the one or more other vehicles, to determine priority of the power reception of the vehicle and the one or more other vehicles.
