SYSTÈME DE PROMOTION DE PERCEPTION DE MOUVEMENT DE VÉHICULE, VÉHICULE, PROGRAMME DE PROMOTION DE PERCEPTION DE MOUVEMENT DE VÉHICULE ET PROCÉDÉ DE COMMANDE
The vehicle animacy perception promotion system 90 includes an occupant pressure detection unit 42 that detects action of an occupant on a vehicle applying pressure to the vehicle using his/her muscle strength, two contact units 8R, 8L that make contact with different body parts of the occupant, an actuator 6, an instruction unit 52, and a driving unit 53. The actuator 6 applies force to at least one of the two contact units such that the two contact units sandwich a body part of the occupant located between the two contact units to apply pressure to the body part. The force contains a component that brings the two contact units closer to each other in the direction connecting parts of the two contact units contacting the body part. The instruction unit 52 determines the force to be applied by the actuator to at least one of the two contact units based on the action detected by the occupant pressure detection unit in order to promote the occupant to perceive animacy in the vehicle.
