Abstract: A driving assistance device converts an image captured by an in-vehicle camera configured to image the periphery of a vehicle into an image viewed from a virtual viewpoint. The driving assistance device combines, as a higher-level layer, a vehicle image indicating the position and shape of the vehicle with a converted target image. The driving assistance device adjusts the opacity of the vehicle image such that the target image as a lower-level layer is visible at a superimposed portion of the vehicle image and the target image. At this point, the opacity of the vehicle image is variably set according to at least one of an own vehicle surrounding condition or a vehicle running condition. The driving assistance device outputs, as a driving assistance image, the target image combined with the adjusted vehicle image.

Abstract: In an apparatus for monitoring surroundings of a vehicle, a road surface recognizer recognizes from an image of surroundings of the vehicle captured by a camera, a road surface on which the vehicle can travel. A travel trajectory estimator estimates a travel trajectory from a current location of the vehicle based on a steering state of the vehicle. A travelable degree calculator calculates, based on the travel trajectory estimated by the travel trajectory estimator and a result of recognition of the road surface by the road surface recognizer, a travelable degree that is a degree to which the vehicle can travel on the road surface. A notifier provides a notification of the travelable degree calculated by the travelable degree calculator.
