A midpoint correction device for performing midpoint correction of a steering torque sensor, which is applied to a vehicle provided with a EPS device that applies control torque to a steering transmission system between a steering wheel and a steered wheel, and a steering torque sensor provided in the steering transmission system, includes a control unit that includes a nonvolatile storage device and performs remote operation control of the vehicle, and the control unit stores the steering torque detected by the steering torque sensor in the storage device as a midpoint offset amount in a state where the remote operation control is performed, reads the midpoint offset amount from the storage device during traveling of the vehicle, and corrects the steering torque detected by the steering torque sensor with the midpoint offset amount, thereby performing midpoint correction.
A midpoint correction device for a steering torque sensor implemented in a vehicle that is equipped with a torque applying device for applying control torque to a steering transmission system between a steering wheel and a steered wheel, and a steering torque sensor provided in the steering transmission system between the steering wheel and the torque applying device, and that is configured to perform midpoint correction of the steering torque sensor, the midpoint correction device comprising:
A midpoint correction method of a steering torque sensor, for performing midpoint correction of the steering torque sensor implemented in a vehicle that is equipped with a torque applying device for applying control torque to a steering transmission system between a steering wheel and a steered wheel, and the steering torque sensor provided in the steering transmission system between the steering wheel and the torque applying device, the midpoint correction method comprising:
A non-transitory storage medium storing a midpoint correction program for a steering torque sensor, the midpoint correction program causing an electronic control unit installed in a vehicle to execute midpoint correction of the steering torque sensor implemented in the vehicle that is equipped with a torque applying device for applying control torque to a steering transmission system between a steering wheel and a steered wheel, and the steering torque sensor provided in the steering transmission system between the steering wheel and the torque applying device, the midpoint correction program comprising:
