  • Patent number: 9706175
    Abstract: In an image processing device configured to be installed in a vehicle, an image acquirer acquires camera images captured by cameras provided on the vehicle. A synthetic image generator generates synthetic images, which include downward views of the vehicle and a periphery thereof viewed from viewpoints different from one another, based on the camera images. A display image provider outputs, to the display device installed in the vehicle, information corresponding to a display image in which the synthetic images are continuously reproduced.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9073482
    Abstract: An image display system is configured to display an image. An obtaining unit is configured to obtain a surrounding image indicating surroundings of a vehicle. A plurality of detecting units are disposed on the vehicle at different positions and configured to detect an object existing around the vehicle, respectively. If one of the detecting units detects the object, the one of the detecting units is referred to as specific detecting unit. An overlapping unit is configured to overlap an indicator represented in the form of a frame with the surrounding image. The indicator indicates the object and the specific detecting unit which has detected the object. A display unit is configured to display the surrounding image with which the indicator is overlapped.

  • Publication number: 20120287282
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus to be mounted on a vehicle is provided with an image obtaining means, a synthetic image generating means, and a model image supplying means. The image obtaining means is for obtaining a plurality of camera images captured by a plurality of cameras installed on the vehicle. The synthetic image generating means is for generating, on the basis of the plurality of camera images, a plurality of synthetic images viewed from one viewpoint among a plurality of viewpoints that are different from each other, and which indicate the surroundings of the vehicle. The model image supplying means is for outputting, to a display device installed on the vehicle, information corresponding to a model image wherein one field-of-view range associated with the one viewpoint among the plurality of viewpoints is indicated selectively, from among a plurality of field-of-view ranges.
