First Claim
Patent Images
1. An on-board sensor information providing program that allows a computer to function as:
- an acquisition unit that acquires sensor information used for vehicle running support from a sensor mounted on-board a vehicle;
a selection unit that allows a driver of the vehicle to select whether to provide the sensor information to an external system; and
an offer unit that provides the sensor information, the provision of which has been permitted by the driver, to the external system.

Abstract
A controller obtains sensor information from sensors mounted on a vehicle running on a road, and an information offer selector allows the driver of the vehicle to select on a screen whether to provide the sensor information to a center apparatus. If the driver allows provision of the sensor information, then the sensor information is transmitted to the center apparatus via radio communications. Thus, only the sensor information that is allowed by the driver is provided to the other vehicles.
