INTERSECTION GUIDE SYSTEM, METHOD, AND PROGRAM
First Claim
1. An intersection guide system comprising:
- a memory storing an intersection guide program, anda processor that, when executing the program;
a degree of approach of a vehicle to an intersection that is present ahead of the vehicle; and
causes a display to;
superimpose a guide image that provides guidance on a position of the intersection on a forward scene ahead of the vehicle; and
display the guide image superimposed on the forward scene;
sets, as a position of superimposition of the guide image, an intersection position within the forward scene, when the degree of approach is less than a threshold, the intersection position corresponding to a registered position registered in map information as the position of the intersection; and
sets, as the position of superimposition of the guide image, a straight-line position within the forward scene, when the degree of approach is equal to or more than the threshold, the straight-line position corresponding to a position on a straight-ahead line that is a straight line extending in a travel direction of the vehicle form the vehicle.

Abstract
Intersection guide systems, methods, and programs acquire a degree of approach of a vehicle to an intersection ahead of a vehicle and display a guide image at a position of the intersection superimposed on a forward scene ahead of the vehicle. The systems, methods, and programs set, as a position of superimposition of the guide image, an intersection position within the forward scene when the degree of approach is less than a threshold. The intersection position corresponds to a registered position registered in map information as the position of the intersection. The systems, methods, and programs set, as the position of superimposition, a straight-line position within the forward scene when the degree of approach is equal to or more than the threshold. The straight-line position corresponds to a position on a straight-ahead line that is a straight line extending in a travel direction of the vehicle from the vehicle.

8. An intersection guide method comprising:
-
acquiring, with a processor, a degree of approach of a vehicle to an intersection that is present ahead of the vehicle; causing, with the processor, a display to display a guide image that provides guidance on a position of the intersection superimposed on a forward scene ahead of the vehicle; setting, with the processor, as a position of superimposition of the guide image, an intersection position within the forward scene, when the degree of approach is less than a threshold, the intersection position corresponding to a registered position registered in map information as the position of the intersection; and setting, with the processor, as the position of superimposition of the guide image, a straight-line position within the forward scene, when the degree of approach is equal to or more than the threshold, the straight-line position corresponding to a position on a straight-ahead line that is a straight line extending in a travel direction of the vehicle from the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

9. A non-transitory storage medium storing a computer-executable intersection guide program, the program comprising:
-
instructions for acquiring a degree of approach of a vehicle to an intersection that is present ahead of the vehicle; instructions for causing a display to display a guide image that provides guidance on a position of the intersection superimposed on a forward scene ahead of the vehicle; instructions for setting, as a position of superimposition of the guide image, an intersection position within the forward scene, when the degree of approach is less than a threshold, the intersection position corresponding to a registered position registered in map information as the position of the intersection; and instructions for setting, as the position of superimposition of the guide image, a straight-line position within the forward scene, when the degree of approach is equal to or more than the threshold, the straight-line position corresponding to a position on a straight-ahead line that is a straight line extending in a travel direction of the vehicle form the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
