    摘要: A synthesized image showing the situation around a vehicle is produced from images taken with cameras capturing the surroundings of the vehicle and presented to a display. A position computation section computes position information and the reliability of the position information, for a plurality of points in the camera images. An image variable-synthesis section produces a first synthesized image from the camera images using the position information. An image fixed-synthesis section produces a second synthesized image by road surface projection, for example, without use of the position information. A synthesis scheme selection section selects either one of the first and second synthesized images according to the reliability as the synthesized image to be presented.

    摘要: In the vehicle surroundings display device of the invention, an image processor generates an image showing the situation around a vehicle. When an obstacle is detected by an obstacle detection means, the image processor determines an image missing region using the position of the border of the obstacle on the vehicle side detected by an obstacle position detection means and fills the image missing region with substitute image data. This eliminates unnaturalness of a display image the user may feel and enables the user to accurately recognize the position of a neighboring obstacle that is important in driving operation.

    摘要: The process captures a plurality of images under a light source whose luminance varies over time, such as a fluorescent lamp, under such an imaging condition that a plurality of images that are different from one another in terms of light source conditions can be captured (S11). The process detects a temporal luminance variation from the plurality of captured images (S12), estimates a shadow area by using the temporal luminance variation (S13), and performs an image process such as a process of synthesizing a linearized image or an image segmentation based on optical characteristics (S14).

    摘要: An image region dividing section (105) partitions each of input images into a small regions, and a small region synthesized image generation section (106) generates a base image of each small region, which is an image including only diffuse reflection, from each input image. An image interpolation section (107) generates by interpolation a base image of a small region of which base image cannot be generated. A linearized image generation section (103) generates a linearized image, which is an image in an ideal state under given lighting condition, using the base image of each small region.
