VEHICLE SURROUNDINGS AWARENESS SUPPORT DEVICE
First Claim
1. A vehicle surroundings awareness support device comprising:
- an image reception unit for receiving 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 for computing an optical flow on the basis of feature points contained in the plurality of frames imaged at different times;
a moving object detection unit for detecting a moving object in the surroundings of the vehicle on the basis of the optical flow; and
a superimposing unit for superimposing a display for showing movement trajectories for the moving objects onto the captured images, on the basis of the optical flow.

Abstract
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.
