Abstract
In an image generation apparatus, an image of a periphery of an own vehicle is captured using an imaging operation of a camera mounted in the own vehicle in a first state that is suitable for capturing an image for recognizing information illustrated on a display board, at a predetermined first timing, and a first captured image is generated from the image captured in the first state. An image of the periphery of the own vehicle is captured using an imaging operation of the camera in a second state that is suitable for capturing an image for recognizing information displayed by light emitted from an electronic display apparatus, at a predetermined second timing, and a second captured image is generated from the image captured in the second state. A process using the first captured image and the second captured image is performed.
