A hybrid type outdoor motor includes a propeller, an electric motor that generates a drive force to rotate the propeller, and an engine that generates a drive force to rotate the propeller. The engine discharges exhaust gas in water. A control apparatus that controls the hybrid type outboard motor includes a speed instruction unit arranged to generate a speed instruction value indicative of the rotational speed of the propeller, and a control unit arranged to change from a first mode, in which only the drive force of the electric motor is transmitted to the propeller, to the second mode, in which the drive force of the engine is transmitted to the propeller. The control unit changes from the first to second modes depending on a rotation direction of the propeller and the speed instruction value generated by the speed instruction unit.

A fuel-saving drive recommendation system is mounted on a vehicle that includes a step-gear automatic transmission of which a gear is shifted in response to a gear instruction signal. The fuel-saving drive recommendation system calculates a required driving force based on an amount by which an output operating component is operated by a driver and a gear of the automatic transmission, makes determination for fuel-saving drive for the vehicle based on the required driving force and notifies the determination result. The fuel-saving drive recommendation system calculates a required driving force for performing output control on an engine and a required driving force for determining whether it is a fuel-saving drive state. A determination gear signal different from the gear instruction signal is used when the determination required driving force is calculated, and is changed to coincide with the gear instruction signal that has been changed.

The present disclosure relates to a solid-state image pickup apparatus, a correction method, and an electronic apparatus, enabled to suppress an apparent uncomfortable feeling of an image output from a solid-state image pickup apparatus in which pixels of different OCL shapes are mounted mixedly.A solid-state image pickup apparatus according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a pixel array in which a first pixel in which an OCL (On Chip Lens) of a standard size is formed and a second pixel in which an OCL of a size different from the standard size is formed are present mixedly, and a correction section that corrects a pixel value of the first pixel that is positioned in the vicinity of the second pixel among the first pixels on the pixel array. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, a CMOS image sensor.

A braking / driving force control unit determines whether or not the driver has a intention of lane change on the basis of the detected road shape and the steering amount. The braking / driving force control unit detects an obstacle which is an obstacle present rearward and sideward of the vehicle. The braking / driving force control unit determines whether approach prevention control for preventing an the vehicle from approaching to the obstacle should start, when it is determined that the driver has the intention of lane change and the obstacle is detected, and performs the approach prevention control for supporting prevention of the vehicle from approaching to the obstacle when it is determined that the control should start. At this time, the braking / driving force control unit determines detection accuracy of the road shape ahead of the vehicle and suppresses the determination of the start of the control when the detection accuracy is low.

A drive assist devices include a display that displays an image around a vehicle imaged by an imaging device installed on the vehicle, a setting unit that sets a target designated by a user on the image as a recognition target, a detection unit that detects a state change of the recognition target on the image in a case where the recognition target is set, and a notification control unit that controls a notification device to notify the user of the detection result in a case where the state change of the set recognition target is detected.

A drive control apparatus for a vehicle includes: a control unit that controls drive force output from an engine in accordance with operation of an accelerator pedal; and a shift mechanism capable of selectively switching a shift position to a driving position or a non-driving position. The shift mechanism transmits the drive force to wheels when the shift position is in the driving position, and interrupts transmission of the drive force when the shift position is in the non-driving position. The control unit executes a drive force restriction process of reducing the drive force when the shift position is switched from the non-driving position to the driving position while the accelerator pedal is in an on state, and, when the switching is from a neutral position, the control unit changes a mode of reducing the drive force in accordance with a continuation time of the neutral position.

When a first driver setting mode indicates an “OFF mode” or an “AUTO mode,” a VP accepts a light operation mode request from an ADK. When an operation is performed by a user, the VP changes an operation mode of a headlight in accordance with the operation by the user. When the operation by the user has not been performed, the VP changes the operation mode of the headlight in accordance with the light operation mode request.

Lane keeping control is ended in accurate timing which does not give an uncomfortable feeling to a driver. In a vehicle 10 which is provided with a steering mechanism 200, an EPS actuator 300, and a VGRS actuator 500 and which can change a rudder angle regardless of a driver's steering input due to the cooperative control of the aforementioned mechanism and actuators, an ECU 100 performs LKA end control. In the control, in cases where a winker lever 16 is operated in a period of performing LKA control for making the vehicle 10 follow a target driving route, if the indicated direction of the winker lever 16 is different from a generation direction of generating an assist steering torque TA of the EPS actuator 300 in the LKA control, the LKA control is promptly ended. In cases where the indicated direction is equal to the generation direction, if a steering angle MAdrv corresponding to the driver's steering input exceeds a steering angle MAlka generated by the LKA control, the LKA control is ended.

An electric power steering apparatus for generating a PWM signal based on a calculated steering assist command value, PWM-controlling a motor via a motor drive circuit including switching elements, and assist-controlling a steering system that a motor relay is inserted between the motor drive circuit and the motor, comprises a steering status detecting section that detects a steering status of a steering wheel, outputs a longtime steering holding signal when detecting that the steering status is a longtime steering holding status, and outputs a normal steering signal when detecting that the steering status is a normal steering status, and a motor current control section that determines a motor current control value for controlling a motor current flowing in the motor relay in accordance with the longtime steering holding signal or the normal steering signal.
