1. A parking assistance device comprising:
a camera that captures an image of a surrounding of a vehicle;
a display that displays a guidance image for guiding the vehicle from a parking start position to a target parking position and displays an overhead view of a moving area in which the vehicle can move during a parking operation; and
a controller that changes an area and a dimension of the moving area displayed on the display based on a change in a steering angle of the vehicle.
2. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the guidance image comprises a displayed icon showing the steering angle of the vehicle, and
when the steering angle displayed on the displayed icon changes, the area and dimension of the displayed moving area changes to reflect such change in the steering angle.
3. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the area and dimension of the moving area displayed on the display changes in a vehicle width direction based on the change in the steering angle of the vehicle.
4. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 ,
wherein dimensions of the moving area change in response to a position of the vehicle.
5. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the moving area comprises a general shape of a rectangular plane.
6. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein at least a part of the guidance image corresponds to the image captured by the camera.
7. A parking assistance method comprising:
receiving, via a camera, a captured image of a surrounding of a vehicle;
displaying a guidance image for guiding the vehicle from a parking start position to a target parking position on a display, and an overhead view of a moving area in which the vehicle can move during a parking operation on the display; and
changing, via a controller, an area and dimension of the displayed moving area based on a change in a steering angle of the vehicle.
8. The parking assistance method according to claim 7 , wherein at least a part of the guidance image corresponds to the captured image.
9. A non-transitory computer readable medium recording a parking assistance program for causing a computer of a parking assistance device to perform processes of:
receiving, via a camera, a captured image of a surrounding of a vehicle;
displaying a guidance image for guiding the vehicle from a parking start position to a target parking position on a display, and an overhead view of a moving area in which the vehicle can move during a parking operation on the display; and
changing, via a controller, an area and dimension of the displayed moving area based on a change in a steering angle of the vehicle.
10. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 9 , wherein at least a part of the guidance image corresponds to the captured image.
