the control unit sets the first target area in an area of another vehicle that is driving in a first automatic mode by a control, and the control unit sets the second target area in an area of another vehicle that is driving in a second automatic mode in which a user performs at least some of operations of the control of the first automatic mode.
7. The vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein
the control unit generates the driving support data with different amounts of information for a first automatic mode, in which another vehicle is driven by a control, and a second automatic mode, in which a user performs at least some of operations of the control of the first automatic mode.
8. The vehicle according to claim 7 , wherein
the control unit generates the driving support data by using more information originating from the other vehicle that is determined to be driving in the second automatic mode than information originating from the other vehicle that is determined to be driving in the first automatic mode.
9. A vehicle equipped with a driving support device, the driving support device comprising:
an image capture unit that captures an image of an exterior of the vehicle;
a distance measuring unit that measures a distance to an object at the exterior of the vehicle;
a position measuring unit that measures a current position of the vehicle; and
a control unit that generates driving support data for the vehicle based on information from the image capture unit, the distance measuring unit, and the position measuring unit, wherein
the control unit determines whether another vehicle is an automated vehicle or not based on the information from the image capture unit, and the control unit changes a manner of generating the driving support data according to a result of the determination.
10. The vehicle according to claim 9 , wherein
among the information from the image capture unit, the control unit generates the driving support data by using more information originating from another vehicle determined not to be the automated vehicle than information originating from another vehicle determined to be the automated vehicle.
11. The vehicle according to claim 9 , wherein
the control unit determines whether or not another vehicle is the automated vehicle based on a result of image capturing predetermined identification information.
12. The vehicle according to claim 9 , wherein
the control unit determines whether or not another vehicle is the automated vehicle based on a result of image capturing identification information on a vehicle body.
13. The vehicle according to claim 12 , wherein
the control unit determines whether or not another vehicle is the automated vehicle based on a result of image capturing the identification information displayed on the vehicle body.
14. The vehicle according to claim 9 , wherein
when the control unit cannot determine whether or not the other vehicle is the automated vehicle based on an image capturing result by the image capture unit, the control unit determines that the other vehicle is a manual driving vehicle.
15. The vehicle according to claim 9 , wherein
among the information from the image capture unit, the control unit generates the driving support data by using more images that include another vehicle that is determined not to be driving in automatic mode than images that include another vehicle that is determined to be driving in automatic mode.
16. The vehicle according to claim 10 , wherein
among the information from the image capture unit, the control unit sets a first target area and a second target area, which is different from the first target area, and generates the driving support data by using more information originating from the second target area than information originating from the first target area.
17. The vehicle according to claim 16 , wherein
the control unit sets the first target area in an area of another vehicle that is driving in a first automatic mode by a control, and the control unit sets the second target area in an area of another vehicle that is driving in a second automatic mode in which a user performs at least some of operations of the control of the first automatic mode.
18. The vehicle according to claim 9 , wherein
the control unit generates the driving support data with different amounts of information for a first automatic mode, in which another vehicle is driven by a control, and a second automatic mode, in which a user performs at least some of operations of the control of the first automatic mode.
19. The vehicle according to claim 18 , wherein
the control unit generates the driving support data by using more information originating from another vehicle that is determined to be driving in the second automatic mode than information originating from the other vehicle that is determined to be driving in the first automatic mode.
