Abstract: A display control device is used in a vehicle to control a display of a head-up display The display control device acquires external information based on recognition of a traveling environment around the vehicle, and causes the head-up display to display a superimposition content for providing a route guidance to be superimposed on a foreground in a guidance area. Further, the display control device causes the head-up display to end a display of the superimposition content at a timing based on an end determination using at least the external information.

Abstract: In a display control device for a head-up display mounted in a vehicle, when a lane keeping control function of driving a vehicle to travel in a traveling lane is terminated, a termination notification image to notify a driver of a termination of the lane keeping control function is generated and caused to be displayed by the head-up display. As another example, in a configuration where the operation of the lane keeping control function is continued even when one of a right road line and a left road line of the traveling lane is not detected, a continuation notification image to notify a driver of a continuation of the lane keeping control function is generated and caused to be displayed by the head-up display.

Abstract: A display control device is used for a vehicle having a function of performing a lane change control based on a driver's input to control a display on a head-up display. The display control device acquires route information of the vehicle, and displays a route guidance content providing a route guidance based on the route information to be superimposed on a road surface, and displays a lane change content indicating a control content of the lane change control to be superimposed on a road surface. When a display request to display one of the route guidance content and the lane change content is generated while the other is being displayed, the display control device displays the lane change content in preference to the route guidance content.

Abstract: A display for a vehicle is controlled, and route information of the vehicle is acquired. An acquired route content indicating a lane change trajectory is superimposed and displayed based on the route information on a road surface, and a route guidance content for executing the route guidance is superimposed and display in a position deviated from the lane change trajectory.
