Lane guidance display system, method, and program
First Claim
1. A lane guidance display system comprising:
- a memory storing a lane guidance display program; and
a processor that, when executing the stored program;
acquires a forward image in which a scene ahead of a vehicle is captured;
specifies a travel lane currently traveled by the vehicle;
determines whether the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes at a lane branch point ahead of the vehicle;
determines whether the lane branch point is located within a predetermined distance ahead of the vehicle;
determines whether a width of the travel lane is equal to or more than a predetermined width;
when the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes at the lane branch point ahead of the vehicle, specifies a target lane to be traveled by the vehicle after traveling past the lane branch point;
causes a display to display the forward image on which a first guide line is superimposed when the travel lane is not branched into a plurality of branched lanes, the first guide line having, as an end point of the first guide line on a front side, a first front-side end point indicating a center position of the travel lane in a width direction; and
causes the display to display the forward image on which a second guide line is superimposed when (i) the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes and the lane branch point is located within a predetermined distance ahead of the vehicle;
or (ii) the travel lane is branched into a plurality of the branched lanes and a width of the travel lane is equal to or more than a predetermined width, the second guide line having, as an end point of the second guide line on the front side, a second front-side end point indicating a position in the travel lane on a target lane side with respect to the center position of the travel lane in the width direction.

Abstract
A lane guidance display system causes a display section to display a forward image on which a first guide line is superimposed in the case where a travel lane is not branched, the first guide line having, as an end point of the first guide line on the front side, a first front-side end point indicating the center position of the travel lane in the width direction, and causes the display section to display the forward image on which a second guide line is superimposed in the case where the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes, the second guide line having, as an end point of the second guide line on the front side, a second front-side end point indicating a position in the travel lane on the target lane side with respect to the center position of the travel lane in the width direction.

5. A lane guidance display method comprising:
-
acquiring a forward image in which a scene ahead of a vehicle is captured; specifying a travel lane currently traveled by the vehicle; determining whether the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes at a lane branch point ahead of the vehicle; determining whether the lane branch point is located within a predetermined distance ahead of the vehicle; determining whether a width of the travel lane is equal to or more than a predetermined width; specifying, when the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes at the lane branch point ahead of the vehicle, a target lane to be traveled by the vehicle after traveling past the lane branch point; causing a display to display the forward image on which a first guide line is superimposed when the travel lane is not branched into a plurality of branched lanes, the first guide line having, as an end point of the first guide line on a front side, a first front-side end point indicating a center position of the travel lane in a width direction; and causing the display to display the forward image on which a second guide line is superimposed when (i) the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes and the lane branch point is located within a predetermined distance ahead of the vehicle;
or (ii) the travel lane is branched into a plurality of the branched lanes and a width of the travel lane is equal to or more than a predetermined width, the second guide line having, as an end point of the second guide line on the front side, a second front-side end point indicating a position in the travel lane on a target lane side with respect to the center position of the travel lane in the width direction.

6. A non-transitory storage medium storing a computer-executable lane guidance display program causing a computer to execute:
-
a forward image acquisition function of acquiring a forward image in which a scene ahead of a vehicle is captured; a travel lane specifying function of specifying a travel lane currently traveled by the vehicle; a first branch point determining function of determining whether the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes at a lane branch point ahead of the vehicle; a second branch point determining function of determining whether the lane branch point is located within a predetermined distance ahead of the vehicle; a lane width determining function of determining whether a width of the travel lane is equal to or more than a predetermined width; a target lane specifying function of when the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes at a lane branch point ahead of the vehicle, specifying a target lane to be traveled by the vehicle after traveling past the lane branch point; a first display control function of causing a display section to display the forward image on which a first guide line is superimposed when the travel lane is not branched into a plurality of branched lanes, the first guide line having, as an end point of the first guide line on a front side, a first front-side end point indicating a center position of the travel lane in a width direction; and a second display control function of causing the display section to display the forward image on which a second guide line is superimposed when (i) the travel lane is branched into a plurality of branched lanes and the lane branch point is located within a predetermined distance ahead of the vehicle;
