Onboard apparatus
An onboard apparatus provided in a vehicle with an automatic transmission, includes a peripheral image display unit configured to capture a periphery of the vehicle and display a captured image, an acquisition unit configured to acquire information concerning brightness on the periphery of the vehicle, and a setting change unit configured to change a setting of the peripheral image display unit based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit and a shift range of the automatic transmission.
1. An onboard apparatus provided in a vehicle with an automatic transmission, comprising:
a peripheral image display unit configured to capture a periphery of the vehicle and display a captured image, the peripheral image display unit including an image capturing element;
an acquisition unit configured to acquire information concerning brightness on the periphery of the vehicle; and
a setting change unit configured to change a setting of the peripheral image display unit based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit and a shift range of the automatic transmission,
wherein the setting change unit changes a gain which is an amplification factor of a pixel value from the image capturing element,
when the information indicates a first brightness and the shift range is a forward range or a reverse range, the setting change unit sets a first gain as the gain,
when the information indicates a second brightness darker than the first brightness and the shift range is the forward range or the reverse range, the setting change unit sets a second gain, which is larger than the first gain, as the gain,
when the information indicates a third brightness darker than the second brightness and the shift range is the forward range, the setting change unit sets the second gain as the gain, and
when the information indicates the third brightness and the shift range is the reverse range, the setting change unit sets a third gain, which is larger than the second gain, as the gain.
2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the peripheral image display unit continuously captures the periphery of the vehicle and displays the captured image during traveling of the vehicle including a forward movement/backward movement.
3. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the acquisition unit acquires information concerning a time as the information.
4. The apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the acquisition unit further acquires information concerning a weather as the information.
5. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the peripheral image display unit captures a side and a rear of the vehicle and displays the captured image.
6. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the peripheral image display unit includes:
a left unit configured to capture a left side and rear of the vehicle and display a captured image; and
a right unit configured to capture a right side and rear of the vehicle and display a captured image, and
the setting change unit individually changes settings of the left unit and the right unit.
7. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the vehicle is a side-mirrorless vehicle.
8. An onboard apparatus provided in a vehicle with an automatic transmission, comprising:
an image capturing sensor configured to capture a periphery of the vehicle;
a display configured to display a captured image by the image capturing sensor;
at least one processor; and
at least one storage device configured to storage instructions executable by the at least one processor,
wherein, when executed, the instructions case the at least one processor to function as:
an acquisition unit configured to acquire information concerning brightness on the periphery of the vehicle; and
a setting change unit configured to change a setting of the peripheral image display unit based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit and a shift range of the automatic transmission,
wherein the setting change unit changes a gain which is an amplification factor of a pixel value from the image capturing element,
when the information indicates a first brightness and the shift range is a forward range or a reverse range, the setting change unit sets a first gain as the gain,
when the information indicates a second brightness darker than the first brightness and the shift range is the forward range or the reverse range, the setting change unit sets a second gain, which is larger than the first gain, as the gain,
when the information indicates a third brightness darker than the second brightness and the shift range is the forward range, the setting change unit sets the second gain as the gain, and
when the information indicates the third brightness and the shift range is the reverse range, the setting change unit sets a third gain, which is larger than the second gain, as the gain.
