Abstract
An overhead-view image generation device includes: a moving amount calculation unit that calculates a moving distance of a vehicle; a linear overhead-view image generation unit that generates an overhead-view image obtained by conversion of a viewpoint of a captured image of a camera into an overhead viewpoint, and generates a linear overhead-view image obtained by conversion of a shape of the generated overhead-view image into a linear shape; a distance-based turning angle generation unit that calculates, using a turning amount of the vehicle indicated by sensor data of a steering angle sensor and the moving distance calculated by the moving amount calculation unit, distance-based turning angle information indicating a turning angle of the vehicle based on the moving distance; and an overhead-view image reconstruction unit that reconstructs the overhead-view image using the linear overhead-view image and the distance-based turning angle information.
