Abstract:
A driving assistance device includes: a line-of-sight direction detection unit that detects a direction of a line of sight of a driver of a moving body; an obstacle detection unit that detects a position of an obstacle in environs of the moving body; an assessment criteria determination unit that determines assessment criteria of a look at the obstacle by the driver based on at least one of time, location, weather, a state of the moving body, and a state of the driver; and a warning processing unit that obtains an assessment result by applying, to the assessment criteria, a score computed based on the direction of the line of sight of the driver and the position of the obstacle, the warning processing unit determining at least one of whether or not a warning needs to be issued to the driver and a level of the warning, based on the assessment result.
