    摘要: Images captured by multiple cameras installed on a vehicle are combined, and an image of the ground is projected onto a plane and is displayed around a vehicle display portion. In the vehicle display portion, actual images of portions of the vehicle may be displayed in a front area, a rear area, a left-side area, and/or a right-side area. A vehicle illustration image is displayed in the area surrounded by the actual images of the portions of the vehicle. Since the vehicle actual images are displayed at the perimeter of the vehicle display portion, it is easy for an operator who views a display screen to recognize the positional relationships between the perimeter of the vehicle and obstacles outside the vehicle perimeter.

    摘要: The invention provides a display method of processing images photographed by plural cameras and an apparatus for the same, which synthesizes the images by plural cameras mounted on a vehicle for photographing the surroundings thereof and makes it possible to display an easily viewable three-dimensional object near the vehicle, as if one camera were positioned above the vehicle. An image capture unit captures images photographed by plural cameras that photograph the surroundings of a vehicle. An upper observation point image processing unit synthesizes the captured images into an image viewed as from above the vehicle. An image intensity/chrominance determination unit detects an area wherein the displayed image varies from other areas in the synthesized image based on the intensity/chrominance thereof. When the intensity or the chrominance of the area is continuously varying, a three-dimensional object detection unit determines the detected area as a three-dimensional object. A three-dimensional object display processing is performed regarding the detected three-dimensional object image, using either an ordinary image display or a two-observation point image display. This three-dimensional object display image is associated with an upper observation point image at a base front end of the three-dimensional object by an image connecting synthesizing unit, and the associated image is displayed.

    摘要: A system is proposed, which provides a device management application that provides an appropriate display or function in accordance with an environment in which a user uses the system, which automatically fits to an environment in which a user uses the system, and which has an excellent operability.Whether or not a default device exists among devices associated with a device management application is determined. When it is determined that the default device exists among the devices associated with the device management application, a friendly name of the default device is displayed in a device name display part of the device management application. When it is determined that no default device exists among the devices associated with the device management application, a device name of any one of the devices associated with the device management is displayed in the device name display part of the device management application.

    摘要: A touch panel device is provided which, even in cases in which a plurality of GUI parts are arranged in a limited space, enables operation of a GUI part in which, unlike a physical button, it is hard to distinguish the boundary by touch, without operational error, using a finger with a very large contact area in comparison to a touch pen. A touch panel device includes a rectangular screen having a detection region which detects contact, and a control section for generating a control signal in response to the contact detected by the detection region. The detection region has a shape that is inclined with respect to a side edge of the rectangular screen. In cases in which a body-part used for the contact is a finger of a user; when the user uses the right hand, the detection region has a shape that is inclined to the left side with respect to the side edge of the rectangular screen; and when the user uses the left hand, the detection region has a shape that is inclined to the right side with respect to the side edge of the rectangular screen.

    摘要: A vehicle-surrounding image display apparatus and a vehicle-surrounding image display method permits a user to intuitively recognize in which direction a vehicle side image is displayed along with a vehicle top image. When a vehicle side image, such as a forward side view image, and a rearward mirror view image is displayed along with a top view image, distinction images indicative of a correspondence relation between the vehicle side image and the direction in which the vehicle side image is shot in the top view image, are superimposed on both the vehicle side image and the top view image, which enables a user to intuitively recognize in which direction the vehicle side image displayed along with the top view image is shot by looking at both the vehicle side image and the top view image showing the distinction images.
