Abstract: A vehicle periphery monitoring device that: captures images of rear lateral sides and a rear side of a vehicle; detects objects that exist in, rear lateral overlap regions of captured rear lateral images, and rear overlap regions of a captured rear image; determines whether or not a specific object, which is seen only in either of the rear lateral overlap regions in the rear lateral images or the rear overlap regions in the rear image, is included among the detected objects; and, in a case in which it is determined that the specific object is included, displays a specific object display, which corresponds to the specific object, overlapping with the rear lateral image or the rear image, in which the specific object is not seen, on at least one display portion.

Abstract: An image processing device according to an embodiment includes a display control unit, a pattern specification unit, and a pattern collating unit. The display control unit generates a composite image that is a surrounding image of a vehicle viewed from a virtual viewpoint, based on images input from in-vehicle cameras, and displays thereof on a display unit. The pattern specification unit specifies an image pattern to be output as the input image among image patterns, for each in-vehicle camera. The pattern collating unit determines whether all image pattern responses from the in-vehicle cameras match with the image pattern. The display control unit displays a certain preparation image on the display unit when the display switching condition to the composite image is satisfied, and displays the composite image thereon instead of the preparation image, when the pattern collating unit determines that all the image pattern responses match with the image pattern.
