Abstract
A surrounding surveillance apparatus for a vehicle includes an image acquisition unit that acquires an image in a vicinity of the vehicle; a vehicle detection unit configured to detect a nearby vehicle in the image and sets a detection region corresponding to the detected nearby vehicle; and an image processing unit configured to adjust values of pixels in at least some portions within the detection region. In particular, the image processing unit is configured to cause a proportion of areas where the values of the pixels are adjusted with respect to a designated region of the surrounding image to be less than a predetermined ratio.
