Assignee: HITACHI ASTEMO, LTD.
Field: Measurement (Instruments)
Classification: CPC B  G | IPC B  G

Claim 13:
14. A vehicle control unit, the vehicle control unit being configured to
acquire a physical amount regarding a magnetic flux of a magnet that is output from a stroke sensor configured to detect the physical amount regarding the magnetic flux of the magnet displacing in an axial direction according to a movement of a rod moving in the axial direction based on an operation on a pedal, and
acquire a first value based on the acquired physical amount regarding the magnetic flux of the magnet, the first value being a physical amount regarding a magnitude of a magnetic flux density of the magnet with respect to the displacement of the rod, and compare the first value and a second value, the second value being a physical amount regarding the magnitude of the magnetic flux density of the magnet with respect to the displacement of the rod, the magnitude of the magnetic flux density of the magnet with respect to the displacement of the rod for the second value being preset.
