  • Publication number: 20200086890
    Abstract: A display system includes a display that displays a first image simulating a road on which a host vehicle is traveling, and a display controller that causes the display to display a second image simulating a recommended lane given to a controller that performs driving control of the host vehicle at a position associated with the first image, and to display a third image simulating a target trajectory generated by the controller that performs driving control of the host vehicle at a position associated with the first image, wherein the display controller changes the third image to an image simulating the target trajectory for lane change without changing a display position of the second image when the controller executes driving control for causing the host vehicle to return to an original lane after causing the host vehicle to perform lane change.
