In a periphery monitoring apparatus, a display processing unit displays, in a display apparatus that is provided in a vehicle, a plurality of captured images that are acquired by a plurality of cameras provided in a plurality of differing positions in the vehicle and have overlapping portions in which portions of imaging areas overlap each other, such that the overlapping portions remain. A determining unit determines whether a predetermined target object to be detected is present in each of the plurality of captured images. The display processing unit includes an enlargement processing unit that enlarges at least one captured image in which the target object is determined to be present, among the plurality of captured images, and displays the captured image in the display apparatus when the determining unit determines that the target object is present in at least one of the plurality of captured images.

One general aspect includes a driver assistance system for a vehicle. The driver assistance system also includes a camera system having at least one rear camera constructed and arranged to obtain an image of an area behind a rear of the vehicle; a tailgate position determining system constructed and arranged to determine a position of a tailgate of the vehicle, and where the image provided by the camera system of the rear of the vehicle is selected based upon the position of the tailgate of the vehicle.

A system and method for removing false positives during determination of a presence of at least one rear seat passenger of a vehicle that include activating an image system to capture images of rear seats of the vehicle to determine the presence of the at least one rear seat passenger. The system and method additionally include deactivating the image system to cease capturing images of the rear seats of the vehicle. The system and method also include reactivating the image system to capture images of the rear seats of the vehicle to determine the presence of the at least one rear seat passenger. The system and method further include presenting a user interface notification that includes a video feed of the rear seats of the vehicle based on the determined presence of the at least one rear seat passenger.

A driving state monitoring device includes: an acquisition unit that acquires line-of-sight information indicating a line-of-sight of a driver and driving state information indicating a state of driving by the driver; a calculation unit that calculates a line-of-sight range of the driver in a predetermined driving state based on the line-of-sight information and the driving state information; and a determination unit that determines an insufficient visual observation range based on a recommended line-of-sight range and the line-of-sight range of the driver, the insufficient visual observation range being a range in which visual observation by the driver is insufficient, the recommended line-of-sight range being a line-of-sight range recommended for the predetermined driving state.

A vehicle information display device 100 includes: an environment determination unit (115) that predicts an occurrence of a backward movement of a vehicle based on an output from an environment information acquisition unit, an image processing unit (121) that receives an image captured by a camera and generates an image to be displayed on a display screen, and a display switching unit that switches a display of a monitor screen provided in a vehicle in accordance with a traveling status of the vehicle. When the environment determination unit (115) predicts an occurrence of a backward movement, the image processing unit (121) starts image processing for the backward movement in advance, and When the user performs the backward movement operation, the output image from the image processing unit is displayed on the display screen.

A camera system is installed on the front end of a vehicle, either on the left front, the right front, or both sides. The camera is linked via wired or wireless connection to an onboard computer and a navigation display that is located within the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The driver reviews a visual description on the display of any oncoming traffic in the form of motor vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, animals and the like on the navigation display via a single screen, split screen or alternating screens. The camera system can include a speed sensor that detects when the vehicle reaches a threshold speed to activate or de-activate the camera. Alternatively, the computer can activate the system when a turn signal is activated, and de-activate the system when the turn signal is no longer activated. This camera system can be retrofitted into older vehicles.

A display image is obtained in accordance with a deviation of a viewpoint position of a driver from a reference viewpoint position, on the basis of a captured image obtained by capturing an image on a rear side from a vehicle. The reference viewpoint position is updated on the basis of a long-term fluctuation of the viewpoint position. For example, the reference viewpoint position is not updated when a line-of-sight of the driver is in a certain region including a display unit that displays a display image. For example, when a viewpoint position of the driver enters a certain region corresponding to a seated state, there is registered, as an initial reference viewpoint position, a viewpoint position of the driver in a case where a line-of-sight of the driver is continuously present for a certain period of time on the display unit that displays a display image.

An electronic mirror system for a vehicle includes a rear imaging device, a left and right pair of side-rear imaging devices, a display device, an anomaly treatment device, memory, and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor causes a composite image in which a rear image and side-rear images are composited to be displayed, and detects an anomaly occurring at any one of the imaging devices. In a case in which an anomaly is detected, the processor generates a substitute image based on a captured image captured by another of the imaging devices, and causes the substitute image to be displayed. And, in a case in which the one of the imaging devices at which the anomaly is detected, is restored to the normal state by the anomaly treatment device, the processor causes the composite image to be displayed instead of the substitute image.

A multi-camera vision system is utilized onboard a work vehicle having an operator cabin and an apparatus associated with performance of a work task. The system includes: one or more display devices defining a plurality of display areas and a plurality of cameras carried by the work vehicle and coupled to display feeds at the display areas. A first camera of the cameras is oriented to selectively provide a first selected feed of at least a portion of the apparatus during performance of the work task. A controller is configured to display the first selected feed of the selected feeds with an insert, overlay, or icon that indicates the origin and orientation of the first camera as the first selected feed depicts performance of the work task by the apparatus.

A system for capturing and presenting views of a vehicle. In an example embodiment, the system captures video data rearward and along a side of the vehicle and/or behind the vehicle. The system includes video cameras for capturing video data at one or more resolutions and in one or more fields-of-view. The displays present the video data to the driver for use during operation of the vehicle. The displays present the video data at one or more resolutions. The resolution of capture and/or display may be in accordance with an operating mode of the vehicle, such as turning, direction of travel and/or driver selection.
