Patent ID: 11258963

Abstract:
An aspect of the present disclosure is an image creation device installed in a vehicle. The image creation device includes an image capture section and a bird's-eye view image creation section. The image capture section acquires a captured image within a peripheral range around the vehicle. The bird's-eye view image creation section creates a bird's-eye view image. The bird's-eye view image creation section includes a contour extraction section, a region discrimination section, a first creation section, a second creation section, and an image combining section. The contour extraction section extracts the contour shape of an object in the captured image. The region discrimination section judges whether the contour region is a three-dimensional object region or a road surface region. The first creation section creates a stereoscopic image, and the second creation section creates a planar view image. The image combining section combines the stereoscopic image and the planar view image.
