When a host vehicle moves forward, a drawing arithmetic unit and a display of an ECU which display the image of the surroundings of the host vehicle display a trajectory when the host vehicle moves forward from the current position at the current steering angle and trajectories when the host vehicle is reversed from the current position at a steering angle different from the current steering angle so as to be superimposed on a bird's-eye image.

Parking assistance device

In a driving support display devicethat includes a rear view wide angle camera, and an ECUand a displaythat display a rearward image captured by the rear view wide angle camera, a display control sectionof the ECUand the displayis capable of displaying a moving object approaching detection framethat supports driving of a driver of a host vehicleand a pedestrian detection framewhile dividing the rearward image into plural screens for display, and changes the number of the screens to be displayed between when the moving object approaching detection frameis displayed and when the moving object approaching detection frameis not displayed. Thus, the driver can easily recognize operation and non-operation of a system that displays the moving object approaching detection frame

Image display device and image display method

In deviceincluding rear view wide angle camera, and ECUand displaydisplaying rearward image captured by the camera, display control sectionof the ECUand the displaydivides the image into right and left rear lateral screensand central rearward screenfor display, driver can determine which place is displayed. The sectionand the displaydo not display the same image on the screens, the driver can understand the distance between object in the image and host vehicle. The sectionperforms distortion correction of correcting distortion of the image displayed on the screens, the driver can see the image viewable due to the distortion correction. The sectionforms the screensin shape based on the distortion correction, the driver can understand an approaching position of the object in the image.

Image display device, and image display method

In a vehicle control apparatus which performs a remote operation of a vehicle using a remote control, a remote operation of the vehicle which is not intended by a driver is prevented. When traveling control of a vehicle is performed through a remote operation from a remote control, a stop position of a vehicleis set by a stop position setting device, and a movement course of the vehicleis calculated by the vehicle course calculation device. In addition, the vehicleis moved along the calculated movement course in response to a driving operation from the remote control, but if a driving operation from inside of the vehicle and a driving operation from the remote controlcome into conflict, the driving operation from the remote controlis canceled, and the driving operation from inside of the vehicle is prioritized.

Vehicle control apparatus

In a vehicle remote operating system remotely operating a host vehicle VM from a portable terminal, a main control unitof an ECUof an in-vehicle devicedetermines an dispatch position of the host vehicle VM on the basis of a parking position of the host vehicle VM and a position of a user U who intends to board the host vehicle VM. Due to this, it becomes possible to dispatch the host vehicle VM according to the parking position of the host vehicle VM and the position of the user U, and convenience is improved in dispatch operation and boarding of the host vehicle VM.
