A vehicle periphery monitoring apparatus includes an image portion, an image processing portion, and a display portion. The image portion is mounted to a host vehicle and images a periphery including a road surface. The image processing portion subjects an original image to an image correction including a coordinate transformation by use of a parameter, causing a ratio of three segment areas of the original image to become close to a predetermined target ratio, and generates a virtual coordinate transformed image based on the original image. An end edge position of the host vehicle and a horizontal line position of the host vehicle are calculated from the parameter, and the original image is vertically segmented at the end edge position and the horizontal line position into the three segment areas. The display portion displays an image screen on a display area in a vehicle compartment. |
