Abstract
This image generation device is provided with: an image acquisition unit that acquires a rear-side image of the rear side of a vehicle; and an image generation unit. When the rear-side image includes an overlapped portion where an image region, in which an auxiliary line for assisting in the backward driving of the vehicle is overlaid, overlaps an image region in which a specific target is positioned, the image generation unit generates, in at least the overlapped portion, an image in which the auxiliary line is not overlaid or is overlaid in a semi-transparent state; and when the rear-side image does not include the overlapped portion, the image generation unit generates an image in which the auxiliary line is overlaid on the rear-side image.
