I thought it was prohibited to enter, but it was one of the best in the world.
You may be wondering what you are saying, but if you look at the logo mark of Tenkaippin, you will understand the meaning. The design has a white horizontal line inside a red circle, and it looks exactly like the road sign “No entry”.
There is a tweet that became a hot topic in late January 2021 about these two designs. It is said that the safe driving support system installed in Honda cars has recognized the “Tenkaippin” logo mark on the road as “no entry”.
Is there really such a case? I asked Honda.

“(Car) considers health” “I can’t eat ramen”
What became a hot topic was the safe driving support system called “Honda SENSING,” which Honda introduced from the car released in January 2015. It is equipped with a “collision mitigation brake” (CMBS) that detects pedestrians and oncoming vehicles while driving and avoids collisions, and a false start suppression function.
One of them is the “sign recognition function”. The sign information read by the camera while driving is displayed on the display, which is a convenient function when the driver inadvertently overlooks the sign.
However, on the page of Honda’s official website that introduces the function, there is also a note that “the system may not work properly” if the sign is far away or hidden in a tree.
There is a photo that became a hot topic on Twitter in late January about such Honda Sensing.
Behind the display inside the car that says “No entry”, there is a signboard “Tenkaippin” outside the window. The poster explained that the car equipped with Honda Sensing misidentified the signboard of “Tenkaippin” as “no entry”.
From Twitter users who saw this, there were a series of responses such as “This seems to be indistinguishable ww” and “A little cute”. Some respondents said, “Do you care about your health?” “You won’t be able to eat ramen.”

In fact, the attention to this “Tenkaippin / No entry problem” is not new.
In December 2017, a tweet that the “N-BOX” equipped with “Honda SENSING” recognized the signboard of “Tenkaippin” in front as “No entry” was widely spread, and “(Honda car) Tenkaippin” It has an automatic recognition function. ” In September 2018, a similar post was a hot topic on Twitter.
When J-CAST News interviewed a Honda spokesperson on January 28, 2009, he answered that he “knows” that “misrecognition” of the Tenkaippin logo and the entry prohibition sign will occur. It was said that some actual users pointed out “misrecognition”.
On top of that, a spokesperson said about the features of “Honda SENSING”, “There is a limit to the ability of functions (recognition ability / control ability), and depending on road conditions, weather conditions, vehicle conditions, etc., it may not work or it is sufficient. It may not be possible to demonstrate its performance. ” Actually, on the page of Honda official website, it is difficult to distinguish the color and shape of the sign, so there are cases where the “Chinese soba” logo with a bar in the red circle is recognized as “no entry”.
