<1-1.概要>
図1は、本発明の一実施形態に係る画像表示システム1の概要を示している。画像表示システム1は、車両2に搭載された画像取得装置3とカメラ4(4F、4B、4L、4R)を備えている。画像表示システム1は、画像取得装置3がカメラ4(4F、4B、4L、4R)から取得した車両2周辺の画像を、携帯端末8に表示させるシステムである。携帯端末8は、車両2から遠隔に所在するユーザにより所有されている。
次に、図3を参照しつつ、車両2に搭載されて画像表示システム1を構成する各装置について説明する。車両2は、画像取得装置3、カメラ4、セキュリティ装置5、および警報器6を備えている。
画像生成部81bは、カメラ4で取得された複数の撮影画像を合成し、仮想視点から見た車両2周辺の様子を示す周辺画像を生成する。仮想視点は、車両2外部の位置から車両2を俯瞰する視点である。また、画像生成部81bは、仮想視点から見た車両2を示す車体画像を周辺画像に重畳する。画像生成部81bによる周辺画像の生成手法および仮想視点の設定手法は後述する。
次に、画像生成部81bが、車両2の周辺領域を示す周辺画像AP、および周辺画像APに車体画像10を重畳した合成画像CPを生成する手法を説明する。図6は、画像生成部81bが周辺画像APを生成する手法を示している。
次に、画像生成部81bが、仮想視点VPを設定する手法を詳細に説明する。図7から図12は、画像生成部81bが、仮想視点VPを設定する手法を示している。なお、各図において、3次元のXYZ直交座標系ccを用い、方向および向きを適宜示している。直交座標系ccの各座標軸は、車両2に対して相対的に固定されている。すなわち、車両2の左右方向がX軸方向、車両2の前後方向がY軸方向、鉛直方向がZ軸方向とされる。また、車両2の右方側が+X側、車両2の前方側が+Y側、鉛直上側が+Z側とされる。したがって、車両2の左方側が-X側、は車両2の後方側が-Y側、鉛直下側が-Z側とされる。
次に、ディスプレイ83に表示される合成画像CPの例について、図13から図24を参照して説明する。
次に、画像表示システム1において実行される処理の手順を図25および図26を参照しつつ説明する。図25は、画像取得装置3、セキュリティ装置5、および携帯端末8により実行される処理の手順を示している。図26は、警報器6および携帯端末8により実行される処理の手順を示している。本処理は、所定周期で繰り返し実行される。
<2-1.概要>
次に、第2の実施形態について説明する。前述の第1の実施形態は、視点位置VLが車両2の直上かつ視線方向VDが下向き(-Z側)である場合(すなわち、トップビューである場合)に、ユーザの左右方向(水平方向)のフリック操作に対する視点位置VLの移動は、直交座標系ccの鉛直軸(Z軸)を基準としている。これにより、合成画像CPは左右いずれかに回転するように表示される。
図27は、第2の実施形態に係る画像表示システム1における携帯端末8の構成を示している。第1の実施形態との主な相違点は、携帯端末8の制御部81が座標軸変換部81fを備えている点である。
次に、トップビュー表示において、ユーザからディスプレイを見て左右方向(水平方向)に視点位置VLを移動させる手法について、図28および図29を参照して説明する。以下で説明する視点位置VLの移動は、トップビュー表示において、ユーザによるタッチパネルへの左右方向(水平方向)のフリック操作に対応して行なわれる。
図30における上の図は、合成画像CPt1が、ディスプレイ83に表示された例である。合成画像CPt1は、仮想視点VPに基準仮想視点VPatが設定され、基準仮想視点VPatから車両2を見た画像である。すなわち、合成画像CPt1は、仮想視点がトップビューである場合の合成画像である。
次に、第2の実施形態に係る画像表示システム1において実行される処理の手順を、図31および図32を参照して説明する。図31は、画像取得装置3、セキュリティ装置5、および携帯端末8により実行される処理の手順を示している。図25で示した第1の実施形態に係る処理手順との相違点は、ステップS209の処理を備えている点である。
本発明は、上記の実施形態例に限定されるものではなく、様々な変形が可能である。以下、そのような変形例を説明する。なお、上記の実施形態例および以下の変形例は、適宜に組み合わせ可能である。
