A vehicle behavior transmission device is capable of presenting in advance vehicle behavior in such a way as to allow an occupant to easily and intuitively understand the vehicle behavior which occurs during automated driving control. The vehicle behavior transmission device in an automated driving vehicle capable of automatically controlling the vehicle behavior includes: a vehicle behavior calculation unit which calculates the vehicle behavior during the automated driving control; an emission pattern determination unit which determines a pattern of emission according to the calculated vehicle behavior; and an indication unit which includes a light source disposed on a steering wheel and indicates a direction in which the vehicle behavior occurs by causing the light source to emit light according to the pattern of emission.

An unexpectedness prediction sensitivity determining apparatus (2) determines, for each of temporary stop intersections, a standard driving operation level of a driver when entering the each of temporary stop intersections, based on intersection travel information received from plural vehicles C. Subsequently, the unexpectedness prediction sensitivity determining apparatus (2) determines the unexpectedness prediction sensitivity of the driver when entering the temporary stop intersection based on the intersection travel information associated with the temporary stop intersections where determined standard driving operation levels of the drivers are identical to one another.

Provided are an apparatus for controlling a light of a vehicle cluster and a method for controlling a light of a vehicle cluster comprising: a mode selecting unit selecting whether to activate a cluster standby mode; a control unit determining whether to enter into the cluster standby mode depending on vehicle traveling time and whether an event is generated or not if the activation of the cluster standby mode is selected from the mode selecting unit; and a display unit turning on or off the light of the cluster depending on whether to enter into the cluster standby mode. According to the present invention, the apparatus for controlling a light of a vehicle cluster and the method for controlling a light of a vehicle cluster can provide user convenience by controlling the display light of the cluster to be on or off depending on whether to enter into the cluster standby mode by regularly checking whether to enter into the cluster standby mode.

This on-vehicle information display device (100) is provided with: an environment determination unit (115) which predicts occurrence of starting of backward movement on the basis of an output from an environmental information acquisition unit; an image processing unit (121) which, upon receipt of an image captured by a camera, generates an image that is to be displayed on a display screen; and a display switching unit which, in accordance with running condition of a vehicle, switches displays on a monitor screen provided inside the vehicle, wherein in the case when an occurrence of starting of backward movement is predicted by the environment determination unit (115), the image processing unit (121) initiates image processing for the starting of backward movement in advance, and then causes the image outputted from the image processing unit to be displayed on the display screen when a user performs an operation for starting of backward movement.

On-vehicle information display device

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To confirm the rearward view of a vehicle by viewing an image, in place of using a rearward view mirror, in a driving support device therefor. SOLUTION: A display control means (14) includes a first image conversion means (24) that converts a rearward image imaged by a rearward imaging means (12) into a rearward image adjacent to the vehicle, and a second conversion means (25) that converts the rearward image imaged by the rearward imaging means (12) into a rearward image of the region more distant from the vehicle than the region of the image converted by the first image conversion means (24). In the display control means, the image converted by the first image conversion means (24) is displayed on a display means (16), when the range position detected by a range position detection means (17) is in a backward range; whereas the image converted by the second image conversion means (25) is displayed on the display means (16), when the range position detected by the range-position detection means (17) is in a forward range.
