    Abstract: In a vehicle driving assistance apparatus, an approach recognizer is configured to recognize whether a vehicle has approached an intersecting road that is a road intersecting a road of travel on which the vehicle is traveling. A road surface recognizer is configured to recognize a road surface in an image of surroundings of the vehicle captured by a camera mounted to the vehicle. An image switcher is configured to, in response to the approach recognizer recognizing that the vehicle has approached the intersecting road, determine whether the road surface recognizer has recognized a road surface of the intersecting road, and in response to the road surface recognizer recognizing the road surface of the intersecting road, switch a display image on a display device mounted to the vehicle, for displaying driving guidance for the vehicle, to an image of the intersecting road captured by the camera.

    Abstract: In an image generation apparatus, an image acquisition unit is configured to acquire, from at least one camera operable to capture an image of surroundings of a vehicle, a captured image. A bird's-eye view image generation unit is configured to generate a bird's-eye view image from the captured image. A three-dimensional object recognition unit is configured to recognize a three-dimensional object in the captured image. A superimposition-image acquisition unit is configured to acquire a superimposition image that represents the three-dimensional object recognized by the three-dimensional object recognition unit, by performing a process depending on a type of the three-dimensional object recognized by the three-dimensional object recognition unit. A superimposition unit is configured to superimpose, onto the bird's-eye view image, the superimposition image acquired by the superimposition-image acquisition unit, at a position where the three-dimensional object is present in the bird's-eye view image.
