Abstract:
Provided is an extended view method and apparatus, the method including generating a virtual viewpoint image of a vehicle based on a surrounding view of the vehicle, generating an extended virtual viewpoint image based on the virtual viewpoint image of the vehicle and a received virtual viewpoint image of another vehicle, and displaying the extended virtual viewpoint image to a user.

Claim (Index 18):
A surround viewing method performed by a first vehicle, the method comprising:\n generating a first virtual viewpoint image of a first vehicle, for a surrounding view of the first vehicle; receiving, from a second vehicle, a second virtual viewpoint image of the second vehicle, for a surrounding view of the second vehicle; determining a location relationship between the first vehicle and the second vehicle; determining, based on the location relationship, an overlapping area that appears in both the first virtual viewpoint image and the second virtual viewpoint image; adjusting at least one of an image size of the first virtual image, an image size of the second virtual image, a position of a virtual viewpoint of the first virtual viewpoint image, or a position of a virtual viewpoint of the second virtual viewpoint image, to respectively generate an adjusted first virtual viewpoint image of the first vehicle and/or an adjusted second virtual viewpoint image of the second vehicle; generating an extended virtual viewpoint image including the overlapping area by combining one of the first virtual image or the adjusted first virtual viewpoint image with one of the second virtual viewpoint image or the adjusted second virtual viewpoint image, based on a result of the adjusting; outputting the generated extended virtual viewpoint image; and transmitting the generated virtual viewpoint image of the first vehicle or the adjusted virtual viewpoint image of the first vehicle to the second vehicle.
