DRIVING ASSISTANCE INFORMATION GENERATION APPARATUS, DRIVING ASSISTANCE APPARATUS, AND DRIVING ASSISTANCE INFORMATION GENERATION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18282945 titled 'DRIVING ASSISTANCE INFORMATION GENERATION APPARATUS, DRIVING ASSISTANCE APPARATUS, AND DRIVING ASSISTANCE INFORMATION GENERATION METHOD

Simplified Explanation: The driving assistance information generation apparatus described in the patent application collects information about the condition of occupants other than the driver in a vehicle, determines caution points where abnormalities may occur based on this information, stores this data, and can provide it to other vehicles upon request.

  • The apparatus collects occupant condition information and position information of the vehicle.
  • It identifies caution points where abnormalities have occurred in the occupants' condition.
  • The information of these caution points is stored for future reference.
  • The stored information can be shared with other vehicles upon request.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Collection of occupant condition information and position data.
  • Identification of caution points based on occupant condition and position.
  • Storage of caution point information for future use.
  • Ability to share caution point information with other vehicles.

Potential Applications: This technology can be used in various vehicles to enhance safety and prevent abnormalities in occupants' conditions.

Problems Solved: The technology addresses the issue of potential abnormalities in occupants' conditions while traveling in a vehicle.

Benefits:

  • Improved safety for occupants in vehicles.
  • Prevention of potential abnormalities in occupants' conditions.
  • Enhanced communication between vehicles for sharing caution point information.

Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized in the automotive industry for developing advanced driving assistance systems that prioritize occupant safety and well-being.

Prior Art: No prior art information is provided in the abstract.

Frequently Updated Research: There is no information on frequently updated research related to this technology.

Questions about Driving Assistance Information Generation Apparatus: Question 1: How does the apparatus determine caution points in the occupants' conditions? Answer: The apparatus determines caution points based on the collected occupant condition information and the position of the vehicle.

Question 2: Can the stored caution point information be accessed remotely by other vehicles? Answer: Yes, the stored caution point information can be shared with other vehicles upon request.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a driving assistance information generation apparatus that can cause a vehicle to travel so that an abnormality does not occur in a condition of an occupant other than a driver. The driving assistance information generation apparatus includes processing circuitry to: collect occupant condition information of an occupant, other than a driver, of a vehicle being an information collection source, and position information of the vehicle; determine a caution point where an abnormality has occurred in the condition of the occupant, based on the occupant condition information and the position information; store information of the caution point; and output the information of the caution point to a target vehicle being an information providing destination, based on a request from outside. The occupant condition information includes information related to a condition of at least one of a physical condition, a physiological condition, and a mental condition of the occupant.
