It is determined that the user does not want the lane change to occur, and the lane change schedule corresponding to icon 36D is cancelled. If the lane change corresponding to the icon 36D is essential for driving along the set route, the control unit 25 displays or audibly warns that the lane change corresponding to the icon 36D is essential. It may be output to invalidate the operation related to canceling the lane change.

Further, in the route profile screen 18, when the icon 36D is deleted, the control unit 25 changes the icon 36H corresponding to the next route point (here, "△△JCT") to the route point corresponding to the icon 36F. I am displaying. At this time, the control unit 25 automatically adjusts the scale of the map displayed on the map screen 19 so that the waypoint corresponding to the icon 36H newly displayed on the route profile screen 18 is displayed on the map screen 19. As a result, the control unit 25 can clearly indicate the icons displayed on the route profile screen 18 on the map shown by the map screen 19, and allow the user to preferably grasp the position of the waypoint corresponding to each icon.

Note that the control unit 25 may increase or decrease the number of icons to be displayed when a pinch operation (pinch-in or pinch-out) is detected on the route profile screen 18 . For example, when detecting a pinch-in operation on the route profile screen 18, the control unit 25 increases the number of displayed icons corresponding to each waypoint according to the amount of pinch-in operation, and pinches out on the route profile screen 18. operation is detected, the number of displayed icons corresponding to each waypoint is reduced according to the amount of pinch-in operation. In this case, the control unit 25 preferably automatically adjusts the scale of the map displayed on the map screen 19 so that the icons displayed on the route profile screen 18 are also clearly displayed on the map displayed on the map screen 19. .

Similarly, when detecting a pinch-in operation on the map screen 19, the control unit 25 displays the map in a wide area according to the amount of pinch-in operation, and the icon newly displayed on the map screen 19 by the wide area display is displayed. It is also displayed on the route profile screen 18 . When the control unit 25 detects a pinch-out operation on the map screen 19, the control unit 25 displays the map in detail according to the amount of pinch-out operation. from the route profile screen 18. With this aspect, the control unit 25 can suitably adjust the number of icons to be displayed corresponding to the waypoint based on the user's operation.

Also, instead of canceling the lane change, the control unit 25 may accept a change of the position where the lane change is to be performed. In this case, the control unit 25 accepts the position change of the icon 36D by dragging the icon 36D indicating the lane change on the map screen 19, for example. In this case, when the lane change position is changed by the drag operation on the map screen 19, the control unit 25 displays information such as the layout of the lane change icon 36D and the corresponding estimated arrival time information 40 on the route profile screen 18. is updated according to the position of the lane change after the change.

FIG. 5 shows a third display example of the first display 27. As shown in FIG.

In the third display example, the control unit 25 detects a predetermined touch operation on the first display 27 or a predetermined touch operation on the second display 28 in the state of the second display example, and the driving behavior information 42 indicates The planned running speed in the automatic driving section has been changed from "80 km/h" to "100 km/h". In this case, for example, when a touch operation to the display position of the driving behavior information 42 is detected from the output of the touch panel laminated on the first display 27, the control unit 25 displays the changed running speed candidate list. , the travel speed selected by the touch operation from the list is set as the planned travel speed. In another example, the control unit 25 may change the planned traveling speed in the automatic driving section based on voice input. In addition, the control unit 25 may receive an input for setting the planned traveling speed for each waypoint in the automatic driving section. As a result, for example, the control unit 25 can make adjustments based on the user's input, such as setting the planned traveling speed to be lower in places with good scenery than in other places.

As described above, according to the second display example and the third display example, the control unit 25 determines whether or not there is a lane change in the automatic driving section based on the operation of the first display 27 or the second display 28. The position, planned travel speed, and the like can be set appropriately.

It should be noted that the control unit 25 may further accept the setting or cancellation of the setting of a stopping point (for example, a service area and a parking area) in the automatic driving section based on the operation of the first display 27 or the second display 28. good. In this case, for example, when the control unit 25 detects a touch operation to a service area or a parking area in an automatic driving section on the map displayed on the map screen 19, the touched service area or parking area is displayed as a stopover area. , and an icon or the like of the stopover is additionally displayed on the route profile screen 18 . In addition, when the control unit 25 detects an operation (flick operation) or the like to shake off the icon corresponding to the stop-off place when the service area or the parking area in the automatic driving section has already been set as the stop-off place, the above-mentioned service Cancel the setting of the area or parking area as a place to stop by. In this way, the control unit 25 can appropriately set various behaviors of the vehicle in the automatic driving section based on the user's input.

FIG. 6 shows a fourth display example of the first display 27. As shown in FIG.

In the fourth display example, the control unit 25 detects that the scroll button 37 has been touched with a finger in the first display example shown in FIG. are being shifted to transit points. Specifically, after detecting the touch operation of the scroll button 37, the control unit 25 slides the display of the icon by two portions to move the icons to the first and second positions from the current position displayed in the first display example. The icons 36A and 36B representing the closest waypoints are hidden, and the icons 36H and 36I representing the seventh and eighth closest waypoints from the current position are newly displayed. Further, the control unit 25 newly displays the scroll button 37A so that the hidden icons 36A and 36B can be displayed again by a touch operation. Further, instead of the touch operation of the scroll buttons 37 and 37A, when the control unit 25 detects a flick operation in the vertical direction on the route profile screen 18, the control unit 25 may slide and display an icon corresponding to the flick direction. .

In the fourth display example, since the icons 36H and 36I are newly displayed on the route profile screen 18, the control unit 25 determines that the route points corresponding to the icons 36H and 36I are displayed within the map display range on the map screen 19 as well. I have rescaled the map so that it is included in the . That is, in the example of FIG. 6, the control unit 25 displays the icons 36H and 36I on the map by widening the map by a predetermined magnification. In this way, the control unit 25 automatically adjusts the scale of the map on the map screen 19 so that at least the waypoints corresponding to the icons displayed on the route profile screen 18 are included in the display range of the map. convenience can be enhanced.

FIG. 7 shows a fifth display example of the first display 27. As shown in FIG.

A fifth display example shows a display example of the first display 27 when content to be reproduced in an automatic driving section is set. In the fifth display example, the control unit 25 displays an arrow 45 to the effect that the content "□×show" with a playback time of 70 minutes will be played back during the 50-minute automatic driving section from 6:15 to 7:05. and comment 46 are displayed. In this case, since the scheduled travel time (50 minutes) is 20 minutes shorter than the content playback time (70 minutes), the control unit 25 displays the arrow 45 with a dashed line, and the comment 46 indicates that the playback time is 20 minutes. It indicates that there is a shortage.

FIG. 8 shows a sixth display example of the first display 27. As shown in FIG.

In the sixth display example, after the icons 36H and 36I are displayed based on the touch operation of the scroll button 37, the control unit 25 accepts an operation to change the automatic driving end point, and changes the automatic driving end point to the destination. moving in the direction As a result, in the sixth display example, the autonomous driving section, which was scheduled to run for 50 minutes from 6:15 to 7:05 in the fifth display example, is scheduled to run for 115 minutes from 6:15 to 8:10. has been changed to be

In this case, for example, the control unit 25 detects an operation to move the icon 36E to a position between the icon 36H and the icon 36I by dragging the icon 36E indicating the automatic driving end point on the route profile screen 18, and automatically The driving end point is set between "ΔΔJCT" indicated by the icon 36H and "Δ◯IC" indicated by the icon 36I. In another example, the control unit 25 detects an operation to move the icon 36E to a position between the icon 36H and the icon 36I by dragging the icon 36E on the map screen 19, and the icon 36H indicates the automatic driving end point. It is set between "ΔΔJCT" indicated by the icon 36I and "Δ○IC" indicated by the icon 36I.

In addition, the control unit 25 determines that the scheduled travel time (115 minutes) in the automatic driving section has become longer than the playback time (70 minutes) of the content due to the change in the automatic driving end point, so instead of the broken arrow 45, the solid line arrow 45A is displayed, and a comment 46A is displayed in which the display indicating that the playback time is short by 20 minutes is deleted. Note that the control unit 25 may move the position of the arrow 45A to an arbitrary position between the icons 36C and 36E based on the drag operation of the arrow 45A. In this case, the control unit 25 resets the playback period of the content according to the position of the arrow 45A after movement. Thereby, the control unit 25 can suitably accept the user's adjustment of the content reproduction period within the automatic operation period.

Thus, in the fifth and sixth display examples, when content to be reproduced in the automatic driving section is set, the control unit 25 controls the arrows corresponding to the reproduction time of the content (that is, arrows 45 and 45A) and Information about playback (that is, comments 46 and 46A) is displayed. Thereby, the control part 25 can make a user recognize presence of the content reproduced|regenerated during automatic driving suitably.

For example, on the route profile screen 18, the control unit 25 may regard points requiring caution in driving as notable waypoints and display them as icons. Specifically, the control unit 25 indicates a point, a road, a curve point with a large curvature (i.e., a large centrifugal force is applied to the vehicle 1), etc. on the route if they exist on the route. Icons may be displayed on the route profile screen 18 and map screen 19 . In another example, if a point at which a friend or acquaintance is to be picked up in the vehicle 1 (also referred to as a "boarding point") has already been registered, the control unit 25 regards the point as a main transit point and displays the It may be displayed on the route profile screen 18 and map screen 19 . Further, when the control unit 25 detects a change of the point by dragging the icon indicating the point where the friend or acquaintance is to be loaded onto the vehicle 1 on the map screen 19, the control unit 25 sets the point where the icon is dragged as the boarding point. Along with the setting, information indicating the change of the location may be notified to a friend's or acquaintance's mobile terminal or the like via the communication unit 21 . A boarding point is an example of a "boarding point" and a "route" in the present invention.

Further, the control unit 25 may accept user input for setting the type of waypoints to be displayed by icons. For example, the control unit 25 does not display the icon corresponding to the lane change on the route profile screen 18 and the map screen 19 when receiving an input indicating that the lane change icon is not to be displayed.

(Modification 3)
The control unit 25 may display recommended spot information on the route profile screen 18, and set the recommended spot as a stopover place when detecting a user input indicating that the recommended spot should be visited.

Here, the recommended spot corresponds to, for example, a scenic lane or place, a recommended sightseeing spot, a popular facility, or the like. For example, the control unit 25 refers to the map data 10 or based on information received from a server device (not shown) that manages recommended spots. It is displayed on the route profile screen 18 by pop-up display or the like. When the controller 25 detects that the recommended spot displayed on the route profile screen 18 has been selected as a stopover place, the controller 25 sets the recommended spot as a stopover place.

(Modification 4)
The control unit 25 may display, on the route profile screen 18, an icon corresponding to each waypoint and an image of each waypoint photographed by another vehicle.

In this case, for example, the control unit 25 sends images of each waypoint on the set route from a server device (not shown) that collects images captured by vehicles traveling on each road to the communication unit 21 . received by In this case, for example, the control unit 25 acquires the above-described image by transmitting a request signal including information on the set route or position information on each waypoint on the route to the server device. Then, the control unit 25 causes the route profile screen 18 to display an image of the corresponding waypoint along with each icon. In this case, the control unit 25 may enlarge and display the touched image when detecting a touch operation on the displayed image.

According to this aspect, the driver can grasp the situation of the waypoints (for example, traffic jams) in advance, and when he/she confirms the waypoints where traffic is difficult due to the occurrence of traffic jams, etc., from the image, he/she can It is possible to instruct to re-search the route so as to avoid

(Modification 5)
The control unit 25 may display only one of the route profile screen 18 and the map screen 19 on the first display 27 . In this case, for example, the control unit 25 receives user input regarding display/non-display of the route profile screen 18 and switching between display/non-display of the map screen 19, and based on the received user input, displays the route profile screen 18 and the map screen. 19 may be switched between display and non-display.

(Modification 6)
When the control unit 25 receives an input for setting content to be reproduced in the automatic driving section, only content whose reproduction time is within the scheduled running time in the automatic driving section can be set as content to be reproduced in the automatic driving section. good. In this case, for example, when the control unit 25 receives an input specifying content whose playback time exceeds the scheduled travel time in the automatic driving section as content to be played in the automatic driving section, the designated content is automatically driven.
