JPS6414700A - Device for displaying prospective track of vehicle - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To drive a vehicle while watching the prospective track at the time of the backing and to improve operability and safety at the time of the parking by displaying the prospective track calculated from the present steering condition on the image obtained by the camera provided to supervise the rear and the side rear visibility of the vehicle. CONSTITUTION:The titled device is provided with a camera 7 to photograph the rear and the side rear visibility, a steering sensor 1 to detect the rudder angle of a handwheel, an image processing unit 2 to store the prospective track image correspondent to the rudder angle of the handwheel at the time of the backing and to read the prospective track image by the signal of the steering sensor at the time of the backing of the vehicle and a display 8 to overlap the video of the camera 7 and the prospective track image of the image processor 2 and to display them. At the time of the backing, while the video of the rear or the side rear visivility photographed by the camera 7 is displayed, after the handwheel is operated, the prospective track correspondent to the handwheel rudder angle is read by the image processor 2, and the prospective track is superimposed on the image of the rear or the side rear visibility. Consequently, the prospective track can be sensitively confirmed on the image.
