1. A driving environment evaluation system, comprising:
- a driving environment information acquisition section, which acquires driving environment information, which is information on a driving environment of a movable body from an image taken by a camera mounted on the movable body or from an object detected by a millimeter-wave radar;
a position acquisition section, which acquires a position where the driving environment information is acquired; and
a driving environment evaluation section, which quantitatively evaluates ease of traveling of a driving environment of the movable body based on an analysis of driving environment information acquired by the driving environment information acquisition section,wherein the driving environment evaluation section is configured to evaluate the ease of traveling of the driving environment of the movable body through an analysis of an element of the acquired driving environment information, which changes dynamically at each position.

8. (canceled)
- 15. A driving environment display device, which displays evaluation results of a driving environment of a movable body, comprising a display section, which displays an evaluation of a driving environment of a movable body as one of symbols defined correspondingly to the evaluation results of the driving environment, wherein ease of traveling of a road is evaluated based on an analysis of an element of the driving environment, which changes dynamically at each position of the movable body acquired from an image taken by a camera mounted on the movable body or from an object detected by a millimeter-wave radar.
