Claim 17:
18. A peripheral image generation device for a vehicle, comprising:
a processor configured to acquire a plurality of camera images obtained from a plurality of cameras each of which captures a periphery of the vehicle; and
a memory configured to store a traveling direction camera image that is a part or all of images included in the plurality of camera images and captured at least in a traveling direction of the vehicle; wherein
the processor generates an underfloor transparent image that is a composite image transmitting a bottom of the vehicle based on the plurality of camera images and the traveling direction camera image, and
