An information display controller is capable of switching a plurality of screens and allowing a display to display the plurality of screens thereon, and includes a screen constructor, a texture atlas storage unit and a texture atlas creator. The texture atlas creator creates a texture atlas, in which elemental images as constituents of the plurality of screens are arranged, in accordance with an algorithm that takes sizes of the elemental images as references. The texture atlas storage unit stores the texture atlas created by the texture atlas creator. The screen constructor constructs the plurality of screens by using the elemental images extracted from the texture atlas stored in the texture atlas storage unit. In an event of creating the texture atlas, the texture atlas creator preferentially incorporates, into the texture atlas, an elemental image for composing the screen including more elemental images already arranged in the texture atlas.

A coordinate input device and a touch panel device determine a correction value with a plurality of output values obtained from a plurality of sensors arranged in a touch panel based on the output value of a 1st peak sensor that outputs the largest output value, the output value of a 2nd peak sensor having the second largest output value, the output value of a 3rd peak sensor having the third largest output value, and the output value of a 4th peak sensor having the fourth largest output value.

A sign recognition device includes a sign effective range data recording unit for prestoring effective range conditions shown by a sign and an auxiliary sign, a sign recognition unit for recognizing a sign and an auxiliary sign by using a captured image of a roadway in front of a vehicle, a vehicle information acquiring unit for acquiring vehicle information, a map information acquiring unit for acquiring map information about a map of an area surrounding the vehicle, and a sign effective range determining unit for determining whether or not the vehicle is staying in the effective range specified with the sign and the auxiliary sign which have been recognized by the sign recognition unit by using the effective range conditions stored in the sign effective range data recording unit, the vehicle information, and the map information.
