Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A signal processing IC unit performs image processing with respect to an output from a camera. A recognition processing IC unit performs recognition processing based on the output from the signal processing IC unit. A control IC unit outputs a control signal based on the output from the recognition processing IC unit. A first terminal is electrically connected to the recognition processing IC unit. A second terminal is electrically connected to the control IC unit. The signal processing IC unit, the recognition processing IC unit, and the control IC unit are disposed on a board. The first terminal and the second terminal are provided on an edge portion of the board.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A vehicle control device for controlling a vehicle, the device comprising: a board; a signal processing IC unit that performs image processing with respect to an output from a camera provided in the vehicle; a recognition processing IC unit that performs recognition processing for recognizing an external environment of the vehicle based on the output from the signal processing IC unit; a control IC unit that outputs a control signal for cruise control of the vehicle based on the output from the recognition processing IC unit; a first terminal electrically connected to the recognition processing IC unit; and a second terminal electrically connected to the control IC unit; wherein the signal processing IC unit, the recognition processing IC unit, and the control IC unit are disposed on the board, and the first terminal and the second terminal are provided on an edge portion of the board. 2 . A vehicle control system comprising: a first vehicle control device; and a second vehicle control device, wherein each of the first and second vehicle control devices is the vehicle control device of claim 1 , the first terminal provided on the edge portion of the board of the first vehicle control device is electrically connected to the first terminal provided on the edge portion of the board of the second vehicle control device, the second terminal provided on the edge portion of the board of the first vehicle control device is electrically connected to the second terminal provided on the edge portion of the board of the second vehicle control device. 3 . The vehicle control system of claim 2 , further comprising a connecting member for connecting the first vehicle control device to the second vehicle control device, wherein the connecting member includes: a first connection portion connected to the edge portion of the board of the first vehicle control device; a second connection portion connected to the edge portion of the board of the second vehicle control device; a first wiring for electrically connecting the first terminal which is provided on the edge portion, of the board of the first vehicle control device, connected to the first connection portion to the first terminal which is provided on the edge portion, of the board of the second vehicle control device, connected to the second connection portion; and a second wiring for electrically connecting the second terminal which is provided on the edge portion, of the board of the first vehicle control device, connected to the first connection portion to the second terminal which is provided on the edge portion, of the board of the second vehicle control device, connected to the second connection portion.
