Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
When a host vehicle moves forward, a drawing arithmetic unit and a display of an ECU which display the image of the surroundings of the host vehicle display a trajectory when the host vehicle moves forward from the current position at the current steering angle and trajectories when the host vehicle is reversed from the current position at a steering angle different from the current steering angle so as to be superimposed on a bird's-eye image.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A parking assistance device comprising: a display unit that displays an image of the surroundings of a host vehicle, wherein, in response to the host vehicle moving forward, the display unit displays (I) a first predicted trajectory of a front end of the host vehicle to be followed when the host vehicle moves forward from a current position at a current steering angle, and (II) a range of a second predicted trajectory of the front end of the host vehicle to be followed when the host vehicle is reversed from the current position, boundaries of the range being defined by (i) a first potential second trajectory followed when the host vehicle is reversed from the current position at a first steering angle in the reverse direction from the current steering angle, and (ii) a second potential second trajectory followed when the host vehicle is reversed from the current position at a second steering angle in the reverse direction from the current steering angle, the first predicted trajectory and the range of the second predicted trajectory being superimposed on the image of the surroundings of the host vehicle, the second steering angle being different from the first steering angle, the display unit simultaneously displaying the first predicted trajectory of the front end of the host vehicle moving forward and the range of the second predicted trajectory of the front end of the host vehicle being reversed. 2. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein, when the host vehicle is reversed after the first predicted trajectory and the range of the second predicted trajectory are displayed during the forward movement of the host vehicle, the display unit displays a third predicted trajectory of the front end of the host vehicle followed when the host vehicle is reversed at a steering angle so as to be superimposed on the image of the surroundings of the host vehicle. 3. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein the display unit displays the first predicted trajectory and the range of the second predicted trajectory so as to be superimposed on an image of a front portion of the host vehicle. 4. The parking assistance device according to claim 2 , wherein the display unit displays the first predicted trajectory and the range of the second predicted trajectory so as to be superimposed on an image of a front portion of the host vehicle. 5. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein the display unit displays the first predicted trajectory and the range of the second predicted trajectory so as to be superimposed on a bird's-eye image of the host vehicle. 6. The parking assistance device according to claim 2 , wherein the display unit displays the first predicted trajectory and the range of the second predicted trajectory so as to be superimposed on a bird's-eye image of the host vehicle. 7. The parking assistance device according to claim 3 , wherein the display unit displays the first predicted trajectory and the range of the second predicted trajectory so as to be superimposed on a bird's-eye image of the host vehicle. 8. The parking assistance device according to claim 4 , wherein the display unit displays the first predicted trajectory and the range of the second predicted trajectory so as to be superimposed on a bird's-eye image of the host vehicle. 9. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein, the display unit displays the first potential second trajectory from the current position to a terminal position of the first potential second trajectory beyond which the display unit does not display the first potential second trajectory, and the display unit displays the second potential second trajectory from the current position to a terminal position of the second potential second trajectory beyond which the display unit does not display the second potential second trajectory, the terminal position of the first potential second trajectory being different from the terminal position of the second potential second trajectory.
