In order to process sensor data for a driver assistance system oriented towards the driver's comfort, sensor data that is sensed by a sensor device (1) and describes objects (5) is preprocessed in such a way that a distinction is made between a driving zone and a non-driving zone, the driving zone being designated as the object driving zone. The object driving zone is delimited by a boundary line (10). Since the sensor data is processed for a comfort-oriented driver assistance system, it does not have to describe the entire theoretical driving zone; instead, it is sufficient for the boundary line to delimit the driving zone within which the vehicle can normally be expected to drive. This makes it possible to very easily determine an appropriate boundary line (10) and significantly reduce the volume of data to be transmitted from the sensor device (1) to a central control device (4) of the comfort-oriented driver assistance system in order to describe the sensed objects (5).

The present invention relates to a vehicle driving assistance device and a vehicle having same. The vehicle driving assistance device according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a stereo camera; an interface unit exchanging data with at least one device inside a vehicle; and a processor performing lane detection for a first region in front of the vehicle based on a stereo image received from the stereo camera, and deducing lanes for a second region in front of the vehicle based on map information from an interface unit. Accordingly, the lanes in front of a vehicle can be perceived based on a captured image.

A boundary detection apparatus (1) includes an acquisition unit (11), an extraction unit (13) and a detection unit (15). The acquisition unit acquires a disparity image based on information obtained by capturing an image of a peripheral environment of a vehicle. The extraction unit extracts predetermined pixel regions from first and second pixel regions of the disparity image based on a disparity gradient direction of the first pixel region and a disparity gradient direction of the second pixel region. The detection unit detects a boundary of a step surface existing alongside a road by joining together at least some of the predetermined pixel regions extracted by the extraction unit. The first and second pixel regions sandwich the predetermined pixel region. An angle formed by the disparity gradient direction of the first pixel region and the disparity gradient direction of the second pixel region is within a predetermined angular range of a right angle.

[TASK] To provide a technology that allows easily recognizing the degree of approach to a guide intersection using an image that connects between an image of the guide intersection and a guide image that represents the travel direction at the guide intersection. [MEANS FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEM] A system includes: path information acquisition means for acquiring information on a path of a vehicle; travel direction acquisition means for acquiring a travel direction of the vehicle at a guide intersection ahead of the vehicle on the basis of the information on the path; and display control means for causing a display section to display a guide image that represents the travel direction as superimposed on a portion of a forward scene ahead of the vehicle other than an image of the guide intersection, and causing the display section to display a connection line image as superimposed on the forward scene, the connection line image connecting between the image of the guide intersection in the forward scene and the guide image. The display control means causes the display section to display the connection line image as superimposed on the forward scene such that a length of the connection line image becomes shorter as a degree of approach of the vehicle to the guide intersection becomes lar ger.
