A display control device installed to a vehicle that, while inter-vehicle distance control is being executed to maintain an inter-vehicle distance from a lead vehicle traveling on a road, forms an AR image corresponding to the lead vehicle in a hypothetical display area set ahead of a vehicle traveling on the road. The display control device acquires curvature information related to curvature of an extension direction of an area on the road between the vehicle and the lead vehicle, and forms the AR image in the hypothetical display area with a shape changed to match a curvature represented by the curvature information.

Display control device, display control method, non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program

A display control device for a vehicle, includes an image forming section configured to form an AR image having a shape that conforms to a dividing line of a lane in which a vehicle travels, an object recognition section configured to recognize object positioned in the lane, and a processor configured to control the image forming section so as to form the AR image. In a case in which it has been determined, based on a distance between the vehicle and the object, that there is a possibility that the AR image will overlap with the object, the processor reduces a visibility of a specific portion of the AR image, which is a portion that has a possibility of overlapping with the object, relative to a case in which it has not been determined that there is a possibility that the AR image will overlap with the object.

Display control device for a vehicle

A display control device installed in a vehicle and forming an AR image corresponding to a display target object at a position in front of the vehicle in a hypothetical display area set in front of the vehicle. The display control device causes the AR image to disappear from the hypothetical display area while being faded out when a first specific condition has been satisfied after the AR image was formed.

A display control device configured to include a processor coupled to a memory, the processor calculating, based on sets of sensing information acquired from plural sensors that sense objects in front of a vehicle, a position of a detection object in front of the vehicle and, when displaying a position image representing the position of the detection object so as to overlay the position image on a foreground in a display area in front of a driver's seat, deciding whether or not to display the position image based on reliabilities of the sets of sensing information acquired from the plural sensors.

Display control device, display control method, and non-transitory computer-readable medium

A display control device includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: acquire information of a moving body in surroundings of a vehicle; and display a specific image on a display area provided to the vehicle according to a position of the moving body based on the acquired information of the moving body, the specific image being displayed either overlaid on or adjacent to the moving body; and in a case in which the moving body inside the display area has exited from the display area, continue to display the specific image until a specific period of time has elapsed.

Display control device, display program storage medium, and display method

A vehicle display control device includes at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to: recognize an object ahead of a host vehicle; and cause display of respective superimposed images, having lengths in a vehicle vertical direction, at each side of the recognized object in a vehicle width direction, at a display area so as to be superimposed on a view ahead of the host vehicle, the superimposed images being spaced apart from each other in the vehicle width direction.
