  • Patent number: 10640039
    Abstract: A driving information guide apparatus of a vehicle includes a controller and a processor. The controller is communicatively connected to at least one of a sensor system and a communication device of the vehicle, and receives driving information of the vehicle. The processor collects driving information received through the controller while the vehicle runs and recognizes a current driving state of the vehicle based on the driving information. The processor determines a view mode based on a speed of the vehicle and a driving direction of the vehicle, and view-transforms images taken around the vehicle by a camera system based on a position and an angle of a virtual camera corresponding to the determined view mode. The processor thereby generates a view transformation image, and displays state information corresponding to the recognized driving state of the vehicle through the view transformation image on a display screen of the vehicle.
