Provided is a display control apparatus including: an image inputter; a vehicle periphery image generator that generates a vehicle periphery image; a subject image outputter that outputs a subject image; and an image superimposer that generates a display image by superimposing the subject image on the vehicle periphery image. An azimuth of a first line of sight is substantially identical to an azimuth of a second line of sight.

Display control apparatus

A vehicular camera includes: an imaging sensor including a first pixel region having X1 pixels arranged in a first direction and Y1 pixels arranged in a second direction intersecting the first direction; an optical system including at least one lens and having an optical axis intersecting the first pixel region; and a memory configured to store a position of a second pixel region inside the first pixel region and having X2 pixels arranged in the first direction and Y2 pixels arranged in the second direction, the X2 being smaller than the X1, the Y2 being smaller than the Y1. The vehicular camera is configured to: read the position of the second pixel region from the memory in response to start-up of the imaging sensor; and output an output image corresponding to the second pixel region while outputting the position of the second pixel region.

Vehicular camera

A driving assistance apparatus is provided in which the detection range of a left-front-corner sonar () located at the vehicle's left front corner is included in the field of view of a second imaging means () located at the vehicle's left front corner. When the left-front-corner sonar () detects a three-dimensional object at the vehicle's left front corner, an image processing means () synthesizes an image of the image created using a second imaging means () and the images created with four cameras (-) for imaging the complete periphery of the vehicle, and creates a bird's-eye-view image (). The detection range of the left-front-corner sonar () is included within a region of the bird's-eye image () on the basis of the image created with the second imaging means ().

Display apparatus

A parking support apparatus includes a display control unit, a confirmation reception unit, and a parking control unit that performs a parking support control of a vehicle when a confirmation reception unit receives a parking region confirmation and a confirmation required region confirmation, and the confirmation reception unit simultaneously receives a single operation of the driver of the vehicle as the parking region confirmation and the confirmation required region confirmation.

Parking support apparatus, parking support method and recording medium

A vehicle display control device is configured to perform operations including: performing processing for hindering visual recognition of an occupant of a vehicle on a captured image captured by an image-capturing device; generating a display image; acquiring information indicating a state of the vehicle and information regarding a surrounding environment of the vehicle; and determining whether the vehicle is in a first condition. In a case where it is determined that the vehicle is in the first condition, a display image obtained by prohibiting application of the processing to the captured image or by reducing an application degree of the processing is generated, and is displayed by the display device.

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

A display control device generates a display image including an image obtained by reducing a predetermined range in a captured image based on an image captured by an image capturing device, and causes the display device to display the display image. In an adjustment mode, the display control device generates a computer graphics (CG) for allowing a user to set a range included in the display image and causes the display device to display the computer graphics. The CG indicates a range displayed in a reduced state and a range displayed without being reduced in a range included in the display image in different aspects.

Vehicle periphery display system, display control device, and recording medium

A driving support apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a memory and a hardware processor coupled to the memory and a sound wave sensor. The hardware processor is configured to select, as a transmission and reception scheme, either a pulse scheme or a spread spectrum modulation scheme, and control the sound wave sensor with the selected transmission and reception scheme. When the spread spectrum modulation scheme is selected as the transmission and reception scheme, the hardware processor causes the sound wave sensor to successively transmit and receive sound waves by using the spread spectrum modulation scheme.

Driving support apparatus

A visual field support image generation device for generating a visual field support image of a vehicle has a camera that captures an image from the vehicle and a processing section. The processing section covers the image captured by the camera to generate the visual filed support image. The image is covered by compressing the captured image so that a compression ratio of the captured image in a horizontal direction becomes higher than a compression ratio of the captured image in a vertical direction by using a depth vanishing point included in the captured image as the center.

Visual field support image generation device and image conversion method

A display control device is installed in a vehicle and causes to display a video of an area around the vehicle from an imaging device to be displayed on a display device. An acquirer acquires a first video serving as a processing target from the imaging device. A receiver receives an instruction to move an extraction range for extracting at least a part of the first video acquired by the acquirer. An output unit outputs a second video extracted in the extraction range moved in accordance with the instruction received by the receiver to the display device. When the extraction range moved in accordance with the instruction received by the receiver reaches an end portion of the first video, the output unit gives a notification indicating the reaching.

Display control device which controls video extraction range

Driving assistance apparatus

The device comprises: a first image capture means () for image capturing a host vehicle vicinity; a sonar () which senses an object in the host vehicle vicinity; a second image capture means () for image capturing the left front corner of the host vehicle; an image compositing means for forming a bird's-eye image on the basis of the images which are captured with the first image capture means () and the second image capture means (); and a control means () for controlling a switch of a display of a display means (). The control means () establishes the display switch condition of the display means () on the basis of the travel state of the host vehicle when the sonar () senses the object and the travel state of the host vehicle when the sonar () does not sense the object.
