HEAD-UP DISPLAY AND PROGRAM

摘要

An image synthesizer apparatus for vehicle includes an image generator and an error detector. From multiple cameras arranged to a vehicle so that an imaging region of each camera partially overlaps with an imaging region of an adjacent camera, the image generator acquires images of areas allocated to the respective cameras, and synthesizes the acquired images to generate a synthetic image around the vehicle viewed from a viewpoint above the vehicle. The error detector detects errors in the cameras. When the error detector detects a faulty camera in the cameras, the image generator acquires, from the image captured by the camera adjacent to the faulty camera, an overlap portion overlapping with the image captured by the faulty camera, uses the overlap portion to generate the synthetic image, and applies image reinforcement to the overlap portion.

主权项

1. A head-up display comprising:
a display unit that displays an image to a display region configured in a front windshield of an automobile; an automobile information acquirer that acquires automobile information representing a traveling state of the automobile; a forward environment information acquirer that acquires forward environment information representing an environment forward of the automobile in a traveling direction; a display-targeting object detector that, based on the automobile information and the forward environment information, detects a display-targeting object on which guide information is to be displayed to the display region of the front windshield; and a display controller that generates a guide image for overlay-display of the guide information to the front windshield and performs overlay-display of the guide image to the front windshield with the display unit so that when the display-targeting object detected by the display-targeting object detector is viewed from an inside of a cabin of the automobile, the guide information and the display-targeting object overlap each other, and wherein when a position of the display-targeting object changes and goes out of a predetermined display-setting area, the display controller darkens the guide image or changes over the guide image from a normal image to a simplified image which is smaller than the normal image.
