Vehicle periphery monitoring device

摘要

In order to provide a vehicle periphery monitoring device in which excessive information is not displayed on a display device and the driver may intuitively have a sense of distance between their vehicle and an obstacle, the vehicle periphery monitoring device includes an image acquisition unit for obtaining a surrounding image of a vehicle captured by a photographing device mounted on the vehicle, an obstacle detection unit for detecting an obstacle present around the vehicle and its position, a traveling state detection unit for detecting a traveling state of the vehicle, a predicted path line generation unit for generating a predicted path line based on the traveling state of the vehicle detected at the traveling state detection unit, a highlighted display determination unit for determining highlighted display of a partial area including the obstacle of a predicted path area when the obstacle is present within the predicted path area defined by the predicted path line, and a display control unit for superimposing the predicted path line and the highlighted display on the surrounding image and displaying the superimposed image on a monitor device mounted in the interior of the vehicle.

1. A vehicle periphery monitoring device comprising:
an image acquirer for obtaining a surrounding image of a vehicle captured by a photographing device mounted on the vehicle; an obstacle detector for detecting an obstacle present around the vehicle and its position; a traveling state detector for detecting a traveling state of the vehicle; a predicted path line generator for generating a predicted path line based on the traveling state of the vehicle detected at the traveling state detector; a highlighted display determiner for determining, when the obstacle is present within a predicted path area defined by the predicted path line, highlighted display of an entire area including the obstacle and divided from the predicted path area in a perspective direction in advance of the obstacle detector detecting the obstacle; and a display controller for superimposing the predicted path line and the highlighted display on the surrounding image and displaying the superimposed image on a monitor device mounted in the interior of the vehicle.
