Abstract: A display processing device is installed in a vehicle. The display processing device includes a hardware processor coupled to a memory. The processor acquires an image obtained by capturing a periphery of the vehicle and generates a bird's-eye view image of the periphery of the vehicle. The processor estimates a movement amount of the vehicle and generates past images whose capturing times are past time points. The past images are generated on the basis of the movement amount of the vehicle and a past bird's-eye view image. The processor generates a display image to be displayed on a display device in the vehicle by combining the past images and the bird's-eye view image. When occurrence of a skid phenomenon of the wheel is detected, the processor generates the display image by performing, on the past images, processing indicating that the skid phenomenon has occurred.
