Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Provided is a vehicle surroundings awareness support device capable of providing a prompt for a driver to intuitively direct their attention, without the driver feeling hassled. Captured images comprising a plurality of frames taken sequentially by an onboard camera for imaging the surroundings of the vehicle are received; an optical flow is computed on the basis of feature points contained in the plurality of frames imaged at different times; moving objects in the surroundings of the vehicle are detected on the basis of the optical flow; and a display for showing movement trajectories for the moving objects is superimposed on the captured images on the basis of the optical flow.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A vehicle surroundings awareness support device comprising: an image reception unit that receives captured images comprising a plurality of frames taken sequentially by an onboard camera for imaging the surroundings of a vehicle; an optical flow computation unit that computes an optical flow on the basis of feature points contained in the plurality of frames imaged at different times; a moving object detection unit that detects a moving object in t…
