- the image control unit 17 and the light source 19 display the adjustment image, and the camera 11 performs imaging again.
- the image area extraction unit 12 extracts an image area corresponding to the adjustment image in the captured image. Specifically, the adjustment image is displayed in a predetermined color (for example, a bonnet color or a complementary color of the dashboard color), and the image area extracting unit 12 in the captured image An area displayed in color is extracted as an image area.
- FIG. 7D shows a diagram in which the image area G1 extracted by the image area extraction unit 12 is superimposed on the blind spot area C1, the first and second safety view areas E1, E2.
- the image display area determination unit 15 determines the display position and size of the image to be displayed by the HUD 1 based on the image area G1, the blind spot area C1, the first and second safety view areas E1, E2 thus extracted. decide. Specifically, the image display area determination unit 15 determines the first and second safety based on the relative positional relationship between the image area G1, the blind spot area C1, and the first and second safety view areas E1 and E2. The maximum image size that can display an image in the blind spot area C1 and in the first and second safe view areas E1 and E2, which satisfies the condition that the image does not extend over both the upper and lower ends of the view areas E1 and E2. To decide.
- the adjustment image is gradually enlarged and the image area G1 is sequentially extracted from the captured image.
- the image display area determination unit 15 performs the HUD1 based on the image area G1 thus extracted. Determine the size of the image to be displayed. In this example, by enlarging the adjustment image, the enlargement of the adjustment image is stopped when the image region G1 straddles both the upper end and the lower end of the first safe view region E1 or the second safe view region E2.
- the image display area determination unit 15 determines the size of the adjustment image set before the image area G1 straddles both the upper end and the lower end of the first safe view area E1 or the second safe view area E2 by the HUD1. It is determined as the size of the image to be displayed.
- the blind spot area and the safety view area are used to the maximum while properly complying with the restrictions (in other words, the standards of the Road Traffic Act) defined by the safety view area.
- the optimal image display position and size can be determined. Therefore, by displaying the image determined in this manner, it is possible to improve the visibility of the image while appropriately securing the driver's field of view from the viewpoint of safety.
- step S ⁇ b> 101 the image region extraction unit 12, the blind spot region extraction unit 13, and the safe visual field region extraction unit 14 obtain a photographed image generated by photographing with the camera 11. Then, the process proceeds to step S102.
- step S102 the blind spot area extraction unit 13 extracts a blind spot area C1 in the captured image.
- the blind spot area extraction unit 13 acquires information on the exterior color and the interior color of the vehicle, and extracts a portion having the exterior color and the interior color in the captured image as the blind spot area C1. Then, the process proceeds to step S103.
- step S103 the safe view area extraction unit 14 extracts the first safe view area E1 in the captured image.
- the safety view area extraction unit 14 is based on the road traffic law standard (see FIG. 4A), information indicating the characteristics of the vehicle, and information indicating the set position of the camera 11. By performing a predetermined calculation, a first safe field of view area E1 in the captured image is obtained. Then, the process proceeds to step S104.
- step S104 the safe view area extraction unit 14 extracts a second safe view area E2 in the captured image.
- the safety view area extraction unit 14 is based on the road traffic standard (see FIG. 4B), information indicating the characteristics of the vehicle, and information indicating the set position of the camera 11.
- a second safe visual field region E2 in the captured image is obtained. Then, the process proceeds to step S105.
- step S105 the image control unit 17 and the light source 19 display an adjustment image based on an instruction from the light source control unit 16.
- the image control unit 17 and the light source 19 display the adjustment image in a predetermined color (for example, a bonnet color or a complementary color of the dashboard color). Then, the process proceeds to step S106.
- step S106 the image region extraction unit 12 extracts an image region G1 in the captured image.
- the image region extraction unit 12 extracts a portion having a predetermined color in the captured image as the image region G1. Then, the process proceeds to step S107.
- step S107 the image display area determination unit 15 performs the first safety visual field area E1 or the first safety visual field area E1 based on the image area G1, the blind spot area C1, the first and second safety visual field areas E1, E2 extracted as described above. 2. It is determined whether or not the image area G1 straddles both the upper end and the lower end of the safety view area E2.
- step S107 the process proceeds to step S108.
- step S108 the light source control unit 16 performs control so that the size of the image is enlarged. Specifically, the light source control unit 16 supplies a control signal S16b to the light source drive driver 18 in order to move the light source 19 by the drive motor 20 so that the size of the image is enlarged. Then, the process returns to step S106.
- the image region extraction unit 12 extracts the image region G1 again (step S106), and the image display region determination unit 15 determines that the image region G1 is the upper end of the first safe view region E1 or the second safe view region E2. It is determined again whether it straddles both lower ends (step S107).
- the size of the image is enlarged until the image area G1 straddles both the upper end and the lower end of the first safe view area E1 or the second safe view area E2. It will be.
- step S109 the light source control unit 16 performs control so that the size of the image is reduced. Specifically, the light source controller 16 returns the image area G1 to the size of the image set before straddling both the upper end and the lower end of the first safe view area E1 or the second safe view area E2. Take control. In this case, the light source control unit 16 supplies a control signal S16b to the light source drive driver 18 in order to move the light source 19 by the drive motor 20 so that the size of the image is reduced. Then, the process ends.
- the size can be determined.
- Modification 1 In the first modification, when it is difficult to extract an image region corresponding to the adjustment image from the photographed image, the color and luminance of the adjustment image are changed. Specifically, in Modification 1, when the image region extraction unit 12 cannot accurately extract the image region, the light source control unit 16 changes the image control unit so that the color and brightness of the adjustment image are changed. 17 is controlled. Thereby, the precision which extracts an image area
- Modification 2 In the above example, the display position and the size of the image are changed by moving the position of the light source 19. However, in the second modification, the position of the light source 19 is fixed and predetermined image processing (image processing is performed). The display position and size of the image are changed by a process for adjusting the elevation angle. According to the second modification, it is not necessary to use the light source drive driver 18 and the drive motors 20 and 21 that move the light source 19.
