Abstract:
A fake engine sound control device includes an environment information acquisition unit, a vehicle speed acquisition unit, an engine speed acquisition unit, a fake engine sound generator, and a fake engine sound controller. The environment information acquisition unit acquires environment information. The vehicle speed acquisition unit acquires vehicle speed information. The engine speed acquisition unit acquires rotation speed information. The fake engine sound generator generates a fake engine sound. The fake engine sound controller determines, based on the environment information and the vehicle speed information, whether leading to a target vehicle speed is required, the target vehicle speed being different from the vehicle speed indicated by the vehicle speed information, and controls, when leading to the target vehicle speed is required, the fake engine sound generator based on the target vehicle speed and the rotation speed information.

Claim (Index 15):
A fake engine sound control method comprising:\n acquiring environment information indicating a travel environment of a vehicle; acquiring vehicle speed information indicating a vehicle speed of the vehicle; acquiring rotation speed information indicating a rotation speed of an engine of the vehicle; generating a fake engine sound that evokes an engine sound of the vehicle; determining, based on the environment information and the vehicle speed information, whether leading to a target vehicle speed is required, the target vehicle speed being different from the vehicle speed indicated by the vehicle speed information; and controlling, when leading to the target vehicle speed is required, generation of the fake engine sound based on the target vehicle speed and the rotation speed information.
