Superimposed-image display devices and programs display a guide image providing a guidance of information to a driver of a vehicle such that the guide image is superimposed on a view ahead of the vehicle and is visually recognized. The systems and programs obtain three-dimensional map information that specifies a three-dimensional shape of a road and a structure nearby the road and arrange the guide image in the three-dimensional map information, based on the three-dimensional shape of the road and the structure nearby the road. The systems and programs obtain a shape of the guide image that is visually recognized from a position of the driver in the three-dimensional map information and display the guide image having the obtained shape.

Superimposed-image display device and computer program

A lane guidance display system causes a display section to display a forward image on which a first guide line is superimposed in the case where a travel lane is not branched, the first guide line having, as an end point of the first guide line on the front side, a first front-side end point indicating the center position of the travel lane in the width direction, and causes the display section to display the forward image on which a second guide line is superimposed in the case where the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes, the second guide line having, as an end point of the second guide line on the front side, a second front-side end point indicating a position in the travel lane on the target lane side with respect to the center position of the travel lane in the width direction.

Lane guidance display system, method, and program

A determination unit that determines whether a vehicle is in a lane change state where the vehicle is going to make a lane change from a travelling lane to a recommended lane; and a display control unit that causes a display unit to display the front image on which a guide line is superimposed, wherein the guide line has a front end point and a rear end point, are provided. In the lane change state, the display control unit sets a position of the rear end point in the front image such that the rear end point indicates a central position in a width direction of the vehicle, and, not in the lane change state, the display control unit sets a position of the rear end point in the front image such that the rear end point indicates a central position in a width direction in the travelling lane.

Lane guidance display system, lane guidance display method, and lane guidance display program

A system stores reference data generated by associating image feature point data with an image-capturing position and a recorded vehicle event. The system generates data for matching by extracting image feature points from an actually-captured image. The system generates information on an actual vehicle event, extracts first reference data whose image-capturing position is located in a vicinity of an estimated position of the vehicle, and extracts second reference data that includes a recorded vehicle event that matches the actual vehicle event. The system performs matching between at least one of the first reference data and the second reference data, and the data for matching, and determines a position of the vehicle based on the matching.
