Abstract: A parking charge device, which charges a parking fee of a target vehicle in a parking lot with automated valet parking service, is configured to: start a count operation for charging purpose when a start condition is satisfied, terminate the count operation when a termination condition is satisfied; calculate a parking fee corresponding to a count value obtained by the count operation; and calculate a temporary parking fee based on the count value at a detection time of an exit request of the target vehicle. When the count operation is terminated within a preset duration, the temporary parking fee is adopted as the parking fee corresponding to the count value.

Abstract: An electrical component control device controls an operation state of at least one electrical component mounted in an autonomous vehicle. The electrical component control device comprises a request determination unit that determines whether a movement request for moving the autonomous vehicle in a state where a user is not in the autonomous vehicle is received; an operation restraining unit that restrains operations of multiple target electrical components representing an electrical component that acts on five senses of the user when the autonomous vehicle is instructed to move in response to the movement request; an operation state recording unit that records operation states of the multiple target electrical components; and a state restoring unit that restores the operation states of the multiple target electrical components to the operation states of the multiple target electrical components recorded in the memory, before the user gets on the autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: A control device is configured to: set multiple time related areas in a parking space of an automated valet parking lot, the multiple time related areas being correlated to respective scheduled exit times different from one another; acquire a scheduled exit time of a vehicle to be parked in the automated valet parking lot; select, from the multiple time related areas, a target parking area of the vehicle corresponding to the acquired scheduled exit time; set a parking position of the vehicle in the selected target parking area. Each time related area is set to have a shorter travel distance to an exit room of the parking lot than other time related areas when the correlated scheduled exit time is earlier than those of other time related areas.

Abstract: A parking assistance system for assisting parking of a vehicle includes: an autonomous driving vehicle configured to perform automatic driving from a drop off area in a parking lot to a parking position upon receiving a parking start instruction; a management device configured to manage entering and exiting of the autonomous driving vehicle; and a fixed terminal device installed in the drop off area, the fixed terminal device being operable by a user of the autonomous driving vehicle. The management device includes an intention acquiring unit configured to acquire a parking intention input by the user; an inspection executing unit configured to execute an inspection on the autonomous driving vehicle; an operation requesting unit configured to request the user to perform a predetermined operation through the fixed terminal device; and an instruction transmitting unit configured to transmit the parking start instruction to the autonomous driving vehicle.

Abstract: An air-fuel ratio control device sets a target air-fuel ratio and performs an air-fuel ratio control based on the target air-fuel ratio for an engine of a spark ignition type. The air-fuel ratio control device includes a lean combustion determination unit that determines whether a lean combustion is performed in the engine at the target air-fuel ratio, the target air-fuel ratio being set leaner than the theoretical air-fuel ratio; a target NOx setting unit that sets a target NOx concentration according to an operation state of the engine; an acquisition unit that acquires an actual NOx concentration detected by using a NOx concentration detection unit in an exhaust passage of the engine; and a correction unit that corrects the target air-fuel ratio based on the target NOx concentration and the actual NOx concentration when determination is made that lean combustion is performed.
