  The control system 10 further includes a second detection device 30 configured to detect moving body information. The moving body information includes information regarding at least one of the moving state of the moving body A and the moving environment of the moving body A. The information related to the moving state of the moving object A includes information related to at least one of the posture of the moving object A and the moving speed of the moving object A. The posture of the moving object A includes, for example, information on at least one of the yaw angle of the moving object A, the roll angle of the moving object A, and the pitch angle of the moving object A. Information on the moving environment of the moving object A includes the detection result of the first detection device 20, the atmospheric pressure around the moving object A, the state of the course on which the moving object A moves, and the global positioning system 34C (Global Positioning System: GPS). ) Includes information on at least one of the positions of the moving object A.

Contains one. The first detection unit 32 and the second detection unit 34 output various types of detected information to the control device 12, for example.

  The first detection unit 32 includes at least one of a motion sensor 32A and an acceleration sensor 32B. The motion sensor 32A detects information related to the posture of the moving object A. Specifically, the motion sensor 32 </ b> A detects at least one of the yaw angle of the moving object A, the roll angle of the moving object A, and the pitch angle of the moving object A that reflects the posture of the moving object A. Note that the first detection unit 32 may include an angle sensor (not shown) that detects information related to the angle of the handle H that reflects the posture of the moving object A instead of or in addition to the motion sensor 32A.

  The acceleration sensor 32B detects information related to the moving speed of the moving object A. The first detection unit 32 may include a speed sensor (not shown) that detects information related to the moving speed of the moving object A instead of or in addition to the acceleration sensor 32B. The speed sensor is a magnetic sensor (not shown) that detects, for example, a magnet (not shown) provided on the spoke A4 of the front wheel WF. Further, it is also possible to detect information related to the moving speed of the moving object A using the motion sensor 32A.

  The second detection unit 34 includes at least one of a barometric pressure sensor 34A, a terrain sensor 34B, and a global positioning system 34C. The atmospheric pressure sensor 34 </ b> A detects information related to atmospheric pressure around the moving object A. The landform sensor 34B detects information relating to the state of the course on which the moving body A moves. The landform sensor 34B is, for example, an optical sensor or a camera (not shown). The global positioning system 34C detects information related to the position of the moving object A. Note that the change in the state of the course on which the moving body A moves affects the posture of the moving body A. For this reason, the state of the course in which the moving body A moves can be detected using the motion sensor 32A. In this case, the second detection unit 34 may omit the terrain sensor 34B.

  For example, the control unit 14 sets the operation mode in accordance with the moving body information as follows. The control unit 14 sets the first operation mode when the moving body information satisfies the first condition, and controls the first detection device 20 according to the first operation mode. For example, the first condition is set based on moving body information in which the moving resistance of the moving body A is assumed to be greater than or equal to a first predetermined value. For this reason, when the moving body information satisfies the first condition, it is assumed that the moving resistance of the moving body A is greater than or equal to the first predetermined value. The control unit 14 sets the second operation mode when the moving body information satisfies the second condition, and controls the first detection device 20 according to the second operation mode. The second condition is set on the basis of, for example, moving body information in which the moving resistance of the moving body A is assumed to be greater than or equal to a second predetermined value smaller than the first predetermined value and less than the first predetermined value. For this reason, when the moving body information satisfies the second condition, it is assumed that the moving resistance of the moving body A is greater than or equal to the second predetermined value and less than the first predetermined value. The control unit 14 sets the third operation mode when the moving body information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition, and controls the first detection device 20 according to the third operation mode. When the moving body information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition, for example, it is assumed that the moving resistance of the moving body A is less than the second predetermined value. That is, when the moving body information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition, it is assumed that the moving resistance of the moving body A hardly occurs.

  When the posture of the moving body A based on the information acquired from the motion sensor 32A is the first posture, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the first condition. The first posture is, for example, at least one in which the yaw angle of the moving body A is not less than the first yaw angle, the roll angle of the moving body A is not less than the first roll angle, and the pitch angle of the moving body A is not less than the first pitch angle. It is the attitude | position of the moving body A of the state which satisfy | fills. When the posture of the moving object A based on the information acquired from the motion sensor 32A is the second posture, the control unit 14 determines that the moving object information satisfies the second condition. In the second posture, for example, when the moving body information does not satisfy the first condition, the yaw angle of the moving body A is greater than or equal to the second yaw angle, the roll angle of the movable body A is greater than or equal to the second roll angle, and the movable body This is the posture of the moving body A in a state in which the pitch angle of A satisfies at least one of the second pitch angle and greater. The second yaw angle is less than the first yaw angle. The second roll angle is less than the first roll angle. The second pitch angle is less than the first pitch angle. For example, when the control unit 14 determines that the mobile body information satisfies the second condition, the yaw angle of the mobile body A, the roll angle of the mobile body A, and the pitch angle of the mobile body A that are the reference for the determination. The first detection device 20 is controlled so that the period of the wake period and the sleep period in the second operation mode is shortened as at least one of these becomes larger. When the posture of the moving body A based on the information acquired from the motion sensor 32A is the third posture, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition. In the third posture, for example, the yaw angle of the moving body A is less than the second yaw angle, the roll angle of the moving body A is less than the second roll angle, and the pitch angle of the moving body A satisfies the less than the second pitch angle. This is the posture of the moving object A.

  When the moving speed of the moving object A based on the information acquired from the acceleration sensor 32B is equal to or higher than the first speed, the control unit 14 determines that the moving object information satisfies the first condition. When the moving speed of the moving body A based on the information acquired from the acceleration sensor 32B is less than the first speed and greater than or equal to the second speed, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition. The second speed is less than the first speed. For example, when the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition, the wake period and the sleep period in the second operation mode become shorter as the moving speed of the moving body A increases. The first detection device 20 is controlled. When the moving speed of the moving object A based on the information acquired from the acceleration sensor 32B is less than the second speed, the control unit 14 determines that the moving object information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition. In one example, when the moving speed of the moving object A is 0, the control unit 14 determines that the moving object information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition.

  When the atmospheric pressure around the moving object A based on the information acquired from the atmospheric pressure sensor 34A is less than the first atmospheric pressure, the control unit 14 determines that the moving object information satisfies the first condition. The control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition when the atmospheric pressure around the moving body A based on the information acquired from the atmospheric pressure sensor 34A is equal to or higher than the first atmospheric pressure and lower than the second atmospheric pressure. The second atmospheric pressure is equal to or higher than the first atmospheric pressure. For example, when the control unit 14 determines that the mobile object information satisfies the second condition, the cycle of the wake period and the sleep period in the second operation mode is shortened as the atmospheric pressure around the mobile object A decreases. The first detection device 20 is controlled. When the atmospheric pressure around the moving object A based on the information acquired from the atmospheric pressure sensor 34A is equal to or higher than the second atmospheric pressure, the control unit 14 determines that the moving object information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition.

  When the course state based on the information acquired from the topographic sensor 34B is the first course state, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the first condition. The first course state is a course state in which, for example, the friction coefficient of the road surface is assumed to be greater than or equal to the first value. When the course state based on the information acquired from the landform sensor 34B is the second course state, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition. The second course state is a course state in which, for example, the road surface friction coefficient is assumed to be less than the first value and greater than or equal to the second value. The second value is less than the first value. For example, when the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition, the cycle of the wake period and the sleep period in the second operation mode is shortened as the course state approaches the first course state. The first detection device 20 is controlled. When the course state based on the information acquired from the landform sensor 34B is the third course state, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition. The third course state is a course state in which, for example, the friction coefficient of the road surface is assumed to be less than the second value.

  When the position of the moving object A based on the information acquired from the global positioning system 34C is included in the first region, the control unit 14 determines that the moving object information satisfies the first condition. The first region is a region in which, for example, the moving resistance of the moving body A is assumed to be equal to or higher than the first resistance. When the position of the moving body A based on the information acquired from the global positioning system 34C is included in the second region, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition. The second region is a region in which, for example, the movement resistance of the moving body A is assumed to be less than the first resistance and greater than or equal to the second resistance. The second resistance is less than the first resistance. For example, when the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition, the period of the wake period and the sleep period in the second operation mode depends on the movement resistance assumed from the position of the moving body A. The first detection device 20 is controlled to be changed. When the position of the moving object A based on the information acquired from the global positioning system 34C is included in the third region, the control unit 14 determines that the moving object information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition. For example, the third region is a region in which the moving resistance of the moving body A is assumed to be less than the second resistance.

  When the movement resistance based on the information acquired from the wind sensor 22 is greater than or equal to the first resistance, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the first condition. The movement resistance is equal to or higher than the first resistance when the wind speed is equal to or higher than the first wind speed, when the wind pressure is equal to or higher than the first wind pressure, and when the wind direction is equal to the first wind direction. Show. When it is determined that the movement resistance based on the information acquired from the wind sensor 22 is less than the first resistance and greater than or equal to the second resistance, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition. The state where the movement resistance is less than the first resistance and greater than or equal to the second resistance is when the wind speed is greater than or equal to the second wind speed and the wind pressure is greater than or equal to the second wind pressure in a state where the moving body information does not satisfy the first condition. , And a case where at least one of the cases where the wind direction is the second wind direction is satisfied. The second wind speed is less than the first wind speed. The second wind pressure is less than the first wind pressure. The second wind direction is different from the first wind direction. For example, when the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information satisfies the second condition, the first detection device is configured so that the period of the wake period and the sleep period in the second operation mode is shortened as the movement resistance increases. 20 is controlled. When the movement resistance based on the information acquired from the wind sensor 22 is less than the second resistance, the control unit 14 determines that the moving body information does not satisfy the first condition and the second condition.

An example of the control executed by the control device 12 will be described with reference to FIG.
The control device 12 controls the first detection device 20 based on, for example, the following control method. That is, the control device 12 is a control method of the first detection device 20 configured to detect resistance information related to the movement resistance of the moving object A, and the first detection device according to the moving object information related to the moving object A. The operation mode of the first detection device 20 includes the first operation mode and the second operation mode in which the power consumption is lower than that of the first operation mode. The device 20 is controlled.

  In step S <b> 11, the control unit 14 acquires moving body information from at least one of the first detection device 20 and the second detection device 30. In step S12, the control unit 14 determines whether or not the moving body information satisfies the first condition. If the control unit 14 determines in step S12 that the moving body information satisfies the first condition, the control unit 14 proceeds to the process of step S13. In step S13, the control unit 14 sets the first detection device 20 to the first operation mode. And the control part 14 controls the 1st detection apparatus 20 according to a 1st operation mode. Note that the control unit 14 may move to the process of step S15 after a predetermined time has elapsed after controlling the first detection device 20 according to the first operation mode.

  On the other hand, when it determines with the moving body information not satisfy | filling 1st conditions in step S12, the control part 14 transfers to the process of step S14. In step S14, the control unit 14 determines whether the moving body information satisfies the second condition. If the control unit 14 determines in step S14 that the moving body information satisfies the second condition, the control unit 14 proceeds to the process of step S15. In step S15, the control unit 14 sets the first detection device 20 to the second operation mode. Then, the control unit 14 controls the first detection device 20 according to the second operation mode.

  On the other hand, when it determines with the moving body information not satisfy | filling 2nd conditions in step S14, the control part 14 transfers to the process of step S16. In step S16, the control unit 14 sets the first detection device 20 to the third operation mode.
