The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein the overhead image display range setting unit sets the center of the trimming range at the second front-rear position in front of the center of the overhead image when the overhead image display range setting unit selects the second display range, a parking mode for setting a target parking position and assisting parking is set, and the towing vehicle moves forward, and
the display image generation unit superimposes an image of the target parking position on the overhead image for display when the parking mode is set.
5. The parking assistance device according to claim 4 , wherein the overhead image display range setting unit sets the center of the trimming range closer to the target parking position selected within the overhead image, in a left-right direction when the overhead image display range setting unit selects the second display range, and the target parking position is selected.
6. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein the overhead image display range setting unit sets the center of the trimming range at the first front-rear position behind the center of the overhead image when the overhead image display range setting unit selects the second display range, a parking mode for setting a target parking position and assisting parking is set, and the towing vehicle moves backward, and
the display image generation unit superimposes an image of the target parking position on the overhead image for display when the parking mode is set.
7. The parking assistance device according to claim 6 , wherein the overhead image display range setting unit sets the center of the trimming range closer to the target parking position selected within the overhead image, in a left-right direction when the overhead image display range setting unit selects the second display range, and the target parking position is selected.
8. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein the display image generation unit generates the display image including a peripheral image in a traveling direction of the front-rear direction of the towing vehicle, together with the overhead image for display.
9. The parking assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein the display image generation unit determines whether the towed vehicle is detected based on a determination result of the towing determination unit, and determines and displays a display mode of an index indicating a state of the towing vehicle or the towed vehicle according to the determination result.
10. The parking assistance device according to claim 9 , wherein the display image generation unit does not display the index when the towing determination unit does not recognize the towed vehicle.
11. The parking assistance device according to claim 9 , wherein when the towing vehicle moves backward based on a steering angle of the towing vehicle, the display image generation unit superimposes and displays, as the index, a movement position prediction line based on a current steering angle of the towing vehicle, on the captured image, and makes a display mode of the movement position prediction line different between a time when the towed vehicle is recognized and a time when the towed vehicle is not recognized.
12. The parking assistance device according to claim 9 , wherein when displaying, as the index, a vehicle mark indicating the towed vehicle, the display image generation unit superimposes and displays the vehicle mark in a display corresponding position of the towed vehicle in a vehicle peripheral image based on an image around the towing vehicle.
13. A parking assistance device, comprising:
at least one processor configured to implement:
an acquisition unit that acquires a captured image obtained by capturing an image of a rear area of a towing vehicle from the towing vehicle to which a towed vehicle is connectable;
a recognition unit that recognizes the towed vehicle in a connected state based on the captured image; and
a control unit that determines whether the towed vehicle is detected based on a recognition result of the recognition unit, and determines and displays a display mode of an index indicating a state of the towing vehicle or the towed vehicle according to the determination result,
wherein when the towing vehicle moves backward based on a steering angle of the towing vehicle, the control unit superimposes and displays, as the index, a movement position prediction line based on a current steering angle of the towing vehicle on the captured image, and makes a display mode of the movement position prediction line different between a time when the towed vehicle is recognized and a time when the towed vehicle is not recognized.
14. The parking assistance device according to claim 13 , wherein the control unit does not display the index when the recognition unit does not recognize the towed vehicle.
15. The parking assistance device according to claim 13 , wherein the acquisition unit further acquires an image around the towing vehicle,
when displaying, as the index, a vehicle mark indicating the towed vehicle, the control unit superimposes and displays the vehicle mark in a display corresponding position of the towed vehicle in a vehicle peripheral image based on the peripheral image.
16. A parking assistance device comprising:
