A display control device mounted on a vehicle having a parking support function controls a display to display a rear image captured by a rear camera. The display control device acquires the rear image captured by the rear camera; and superimposes, in response to the parking support function being activated, a target image item indicating a target parking position at a predetermined position of the rear image which corresponds to the target parking position. The display control device superimposes at least a part of the target image item in translucent manner on the rear image, and superimpose, on the rear image, an emphasized image item that emphasizes at least four corners of the target image item.

The parking assist apparatus comprises an ECU. When the ECU recognizes a perpendicular-parallel parking possible space to which a vehicle can not only be perpendicularly parked from a parking start position but also be parallelly parked from the parking start position, the ECU is configured to display any one of a first perpendicular-parallel parking space selection button and a second perpendicular-parallel parking space selection button in such a manner that one of the buttons is superimposed on the perpendicular-parallel parking possible space.

Parking assist apparatus displaying perpendicular-parallel parking space

A parking assist apparatus includes an ECU. The ECU displays a first left support image on a predetermined display area of a touch panel display section so that an entire area of a tentative target parking space is displayed within the predetermined display area, based on a relative position of the tentative target parking space with respect to a vehicle.

Parking assist apparatus

An image generation device includes: an image acquisition unit which acquires images taken by cameras installed in a vehicle; a storage unit which stores self vehicle data indicating the vehicle having such gloss that a certain region is higher in brightness than the other region; a bird's eye image generation unit which generates a neighborhood image that is an image of the vehicle and a neighborhood of the vehicle as viewed from a virtual point of view based on the acquired images; a 3D image generation unit which generates a three-dimensional self-vehicle image being a three-dimensional image of the vehicle; and an image synthesis unit which generates a synthesized image in which the self-vehicle image is superimposed on the neighborhood image, and the 3D image generation unit generates the three-dimensional self-vehicle image based on the self vehicle data that is read out from the storage unit.

Image generation device and image generation method

An image processing device used on a mobile body has: a determiner configured to determine one out of a plurality of combination patterns as to the presence or absence of an object in a plurality of predetermined regions around the mobile body; and a generator configured to generate a composite image by projecting onto a virtual projection surface a plurality of shot images acquired by a plurality of cameras taking images of the surroundings of the mobile body. The generator is configured to select, out of a plurality of projection surfaces prepared beforehand, the projection surface used in generating the composite image in accordance with the combination pattern determined by the determiner.

Image processing device and image processing method

An input device according to an embodiment includes a detection unit, a touch position number calculation unit, a vibration unit, and a vibration control unit. The detection unit detects one or more touch positions on an operation surface. The touch position number calculation unit calculates the number of the touch positions detected by the detection unit. The vibration unit vibrates the operation surface. The vibration control unit controls the vibration unit to provide different vibration modes depending on the number of the touch positions calculated by the touch position number calculation unit.

Input device, display device, and method for controlling input device

A display processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes an acquisition unit, a setting unit, and a change unit. The acquisition unit acquires notification information. The setting unit sets, for each of a plurality of display screens, notification information to be displayed on a corresponding display screen based on a priority of the notification information. The change unit changes, when changing notification information of one of the plurality of display screens based on a user's operation on a display screen set by the setting unit, notification information to be displayed on another of the plurality of display screens based on a change in the notification information on the one display screen.

Display processing apparatus and display processing method

An output processing device includes: an accepter which accepts output requests for information that include parameters concerning priority of output of information and parameters concerning output regions for information; and a mediator which, on accepting output requests for a plurality of items of information, mediates the output regions for the plurality of items of information respectively and the output modes of the plurality of items of information respectively based on the parameters concerning priority and the parameters concerning output regions.

Output processing device and output processing method

A touch sensor that generates an output based on an operation performed to the touch sensor by an operator; a transducer attached to the touch sensor and configured to vibrate the touch sensor so as to give a touch feeling to the operator contacting the touch sensor; and a controller configured to (i) determine a content of the operation performed to the touch sensor by the operator based on the output of the touch sensor and (ii) select one of the plurality of operation modes based on the determined content of the operation performed to the touch sensor by the operator. The controller causes the transducer to vibrate the touch sensor with different patterns of vibration so as to give different touch feelings to the operator contacting the touch sensor depending on the determined content of the operation performed to the touch sensor by the operator.

Operation apparatus

An input device according to the present embodiment includes a detection unit, a vibration unit, and a vibration control unit. The detection unit detects a touch position on an operation surface. The vibration unit vibrates the operation surface. The vibration control unit controls the vibration unit to provide different vibration modes between a case where a direction of movement of the touch position is a first direction defined on the operation surface and a case where the direction of movement is a second direction different from the first direction.

An augmented reality information displaying device according to the embodiment includes a storage, a display-position deciding unit, and a display controller. The storage stores augmented reality information associated with a real position. The display-position deciding unit decides a display position of the augmented reality information on a display screen of a transmission-type display device based on a real position of a user that visually recognizes the display screen, a real position of the display screen, the real position in the scene through the display screen associated with the augmented reality information. The display controller controls to display, at a display position decided by the display-position deciding unit, the augmented reality information corresponding to a mode according to positional relationship between the real position of the user and the real position associated with the augmented reality information in the scene.

Augmented reality information displaying device and augmented reality information displaying method

A plurality of characters that are candidates for entry are displayed on a display surface of a display corresponding to an operation surface of a touch panel as character buttons. A touch detector judges whether a user touches the operation surface either with a single point or plural points, and detects a position touched by the user. An input receiver receives an entry of a character associated with a character button in the position touched by the user among the plurality of characters displayed on the display surface of the display. Then, the input receiver receives the entry of the character which varies in type depending on whether the user touches an area in the operation surface corresponding to an identical character button with a single point or plural points.
