A display system for a paving machine can include a plurality of cameras configured to provide a 360° bird's-eye view of a paving machine and an area surrounding the paving machine; a display operatively coupled to the plurality of cameras showing the 360° bird's-eye view; and a controller coupled to the display, the controller further coupled to a sensor on the paving machine positioned to measure a height of a paving material at one or more locations on the paving machine, wherein when the material height falls below a pre-determined level, the controller sends a warning to the display such that the display shows the 360° bird's-eye view with the material height warning incorporated into the display.

Image processing apparatus and image processing method to generate and display an image based on a vehicle movement
11528413 · 2022-12-13 · ·

An image processing apparatus is provided. An image photographed by a camera that photographs the surroundings of the vehicle is received. An overhead image, a vehicle travel direction image, and a vehicle lateral side image corresponding to a vehicle movement direction which is either left or right of the vehicle is generated based on the image. The generated image is displayed on a display unit. For example, a display image is generated or updated in accordance with a travel direction of the vehicle and direction-of-rotation information of a steering wheel. In a case where the vehicle is backed counter-clockwise, the overhead image, the vehicle rear image, and a vehicle left side image are generated and displayed. In a case where the vehicle is backed clockwise, the overhead image, the vehicle rear image, and a vehicle right side image are generated and displayed.

Position calculating apparatus

A position calculating apparatus is provided with: an acquirer configured to obtain a position of a host vehicle; a detector configured to detect surrounding environment including structures around the host vehicle; a calculator configured to extract a map of surroundings of the host vehicle on the basis of the obtained position, configured to compare the extracted map with a surrounding image based on the detected surrounding environment, and configured to calculate a position and a direction of the host vehicle on the extracted map; a display device configured to superimpose and display the extracted map on the surrounding image on the basis of the calculated position and the calculated direction; and a corrector configured to correct the calculated position and the calculated direction with reference to a inputted correction instruction if the correction instruction is inputted through an input device.

Surrounding vehicle display method and surrounding vehicle display device

A surrounding vehicle display device includes: a surrounding information detection device that obtains information on surroundings of a host vehicle; and a vehicle speed sensor that detects a vehicle speed of the host vehicle. The surrounding vehicle display device includes a controller that uses the information obtained by the surrounding information detection device to generate a virtual image that indicates the surroundings of the host vehicle as being viewed from above the host vehicle and a display displays the virtual image. The controller makes a display region of at least a rear region around the host vehicle on the virtual image wide when the vehicle speed detected by the vehicle speed sensor is higher than a low vehicle speed.

PERIPHERY MONITORING DEVICE FOR WORKING MACHINE

A periphery monitoring device calculates an expected passage range indicating a range of a locus of a machine body when a lower travelling body travels in an imaging direction of a camera, based on a slewing angle of an upper slewing body and an attitude of an attachment, and superimposes a range image indicating the calculated expected passage range on an image captured by the camera to display the superimposed image on the display.

Vehicular vision system that provides camera outputs to receivers using repeater element

A vehicular vision system includes a camera and a repeater element at a vehicle. The repeater element is powered at least in part via power-over-coax and includes a de-serializer, a repeater and at least two serializers. The camera captures image data and outputs a camera output that includes serialized image data. The camera output is received at the repeater element and is de-serialized via the de-serializer to generate a de-serialized output. The de-serialized output is provided to the repeater and at least two repeater outputs are provided to the serializers. The serializers serialize the received repeater outputs to generate respective serialized outputs. The serializers each output the respective serialized output to a respective receiver of the vehicle. Each of the serialized outputs is representative of the serialized image data of the camera output received from the camera.

Vehicular trailer guidance system

A vehicular trailer guidance system includes an electronic control unit (ECU), a plurality of vehicle cameras and at least one trailer camera including a rear trailer camera disposed at a rear portion of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. A display screen is disposed in the vehicle and viewable by a driver of the vehicle. The display screen displays video images derived from captured image data, with the displayed video images including bird's-eye view images of a region at least partially surrounding the vehicle and trailer including an area rearward of the trailer hitched to the vehicle. During a reversing maneuver, and via processing of captured image data, an instruction for maneuvering the vehicle and trailer in reverse toward a target location is generated by the ECU. The generated instruction includes at least an instruction pertaining to steering of the vehicle during the reversing maneuver.
