A video display system performs a video conversion process on a video of a camera mounted on a vehicle and displays a resulting video, and includes a plurality of cameras, a detecting unit that detects an object of interest around the vehicle based on information or the like acquired through the plurality of cameras, other sensors, or a network, a transforming/synthesizing unit that transforms and synthesizes the videos photographed by the plurality of cameras using a shape of a virtual projection plane, a virtual viewpoint, and a synthesis method which are decided according to position information of the object of interest detected by the detecting unit, and a display unit that displays the video that is transformed and synthesized by the transforming/synthesizing unit.

An image generation device performs coordinate transformation, based on a coordinate transformation table, to a two-dimensional first image having a span in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction and acquired by overlooking and imaging an object from a first viewpoint at a first depression angle, and generates and outputs a second image which was obtained by overlooking the object from a second viewpoint which is different from the first viewpoint at a second depression angle which is different from the first depression angle. The coordinate transformation table is a table for transforming coordinates of a plurality of first selected pixels selected from a plurality of first pixels constituting the first image into coordinates of second selected pixels corresponding to a plurality of second pixels constituting the second image.
