PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a driver to intuitively recognize a spatial position of her or his own vehicle. SOLUTION: An image conversion part 30 performs coordinate transformation of a photographed image photographed by an in-vehicle camera 10 into an image representing how a specific area on a ground surface looks from the driving seat of a vehicle. A three-dimensional modeling part 40 creates from a display parameter a three-dimensional model of right and left front wheels in a visual field when the specific area on the ground surface is viewed from the driver's seat of the vehicle. Then, an image composition part 50 composites the three-dimensional model created by the three-dimensional modeling part 40 into an image converted by the image conversion part 30. Moreover, a display 60 displays the image composited by the image composition part 50 instead of the image that has been displayed so far. Thus, the driver can intuitively recognize the spatial relation of her or his vehicle. For example, an effect that decision about clearing of the own vehicle becomes improved when passing through a narrow path or turning a steering wheel quickly in one direction and then the other, can be expected.
