BIRD'S EYE VIEW IMAGE GENERATION DEVICE, BIRD'S EYE VIEW IMAGE GENERATION SYSTEM, BIRD'S EYE VIEW IMAGE GENERATION METHOD AND PROGRAM

摘要

A bird's-eye view video generation device includes a video data acquisition unit (42) configured to acquire video data from a plurality of cameras configured to capture videos of surroundings of a vehicle, a bird's-eye view video generator (45) configured to generate a bird's-eye view video from a virtual viewpoint above the vehicle by performing viewpoint conversion processing on the videos that are acquired by the video data acquisition unit (42) to synthesize the viewpoint-converted videos, an obstacle information acquisition unit (43) configured to acquire information from at least one detector (20) configured to detect at least one obstacle around the vehicle and to specify a position of the detected obstacle on the bird's-eye view video, and a display controller (48) configured to display the bird's-eye view video in a display, wherein, when the position of the obstacle that is specified by the obstacle information acquisition unit (43) overlaps a synthesis boundary between the videos in the bird's-eye view video, the bird's-eye view video generator (45) is further configured to generate a bird's-eye view video obtained by changing the position of the virtual viewpoint of the bird's-eye view video.
