VEHICLE PERIPHERAL IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A vehicle peripheral image display system, comprisingan on-vehicle blind spot camera provided on a vehicle and imaging a peripheral of the vehicle;
- a monitor set at a position in a vehicle interior for a driver to visually confirm the monitor; and
a monitor image generating means generating a display image to be displayed on the monitor based on a real camera image input from the on-vehicle blind spot camera, whereinthe monitor image generating means includes;
an image processor performing a viewpoint conversion of the real camera image input from the on-vehicle blind spot camera into a virtual camera image to be viewed from a position of a driver'"'"'s viewpoint;
an external image color judging section judging a color of an external image from the on-vehicle blind spot camera based on at least one of luminance, hue, saturation and brightness;
a vehicle interior image color automatically adjusting section automatically adjusting at least one of luminance, hue, saturation and brightness of a semitransparent vehicle interior image which is a semitransparent image of a vehicle interior image based on the color judgment result of the external image so as to enhance visibility for the external image; and
an image component composite circuit performing an image composition superimposing the semitransparent vehicle interior image from the vehicle interior image color automatically adjusting section on the virtual camera image from the image processor to generate a composite image expressing the virtual camera image to be viewed through the semitransparent vehicle interior image.

Abstract
A vehicle peripheral image display system is provided, in which a semitransparent vehicle interior image is clearly distinguished from a virtual camera image regardless of a surrounding environment condition where a real camera image is obtained and a blind spot external situation can be clearly visually confirmed through according to a positional relationship with the vehicle. In a see-through side-view monitor system an image processing control unit includes an image processor performing a viewpoint conversion of an external image from a side camera into a virtual camera image viewed from a driver'"'"'s viewpoint, a luminance-hue sensor judging luminance and hue of the external image, a luminance-hue conversion block automatically adjusting luminance and hue of a semitransparent vehicle interior image and a superimposing circuit superimposing the semitransparent vehicle interior image on the virtual camera image.
