Application: Notification apparatus, notification method, notification program, and recording medium (Patent ID: US20230386333A1)

The patent filed by Pioneer Corp describes a notification apparatus that includes an image obtaining unit and a notifying unit. The image obtaining unit captures a surrounding image from a moving body, while the notifying unit alerts the occupant of the moving body when an object different from a predetermined feature appears in a specific area within the image. This area is determined based on map information, including the position of the predetermined feature and the moving body when the image is taken. The system can provide information about the object type and even movement instructions to ensure the predetermined feature is visible in the image.

Additionally, the notification apparatus can identify the type of object through image analysis and provide route guidance based on the predetermined feature. The system can also compare images to determine if an object different from the predetermined feature is present in the image area. The patent also covers a notification method and a computer-readable medium storing instructions for the notification program, outlining steps for obtaining a surrounding image and notifying the occupant of any objects deviating from the predetermined feature. Overall, the patent focuses on enhancing situational awareness for occupants of a moving body by providing real-time notifications based on captured images and map information.
