Display control device
A display control device is configured to control image display of a display device for remote operation of a moving body by a remote operator. The display device includes a first screen that displays an intersection image captured by a camera installed at an intersection and imaging a traffic situation in an area of the intersection. The display control device includes one or more sensors configured to acquire intention information of the remote operator regarding right and left turns of the moving body, and a processor. The processor determines, in accordance with a traveling direction of the moving body in the intersection image and the intention information, a shape of a course image indicating a planned course of the moving body, and displays the course image in a superimposed manner on the intersection image while associating the course image with the moving body in the intersection image.
1. A display control device for controlling image display of a display device for remote operation of a moving body by a remote operator, the display device comprising:
a first monitor configured to display an intersection image captured by an intersection camera, the intersection camera not being mounted on the moving body and installed at an intersection through which the moving body passes and being configured to image a traffic situation in an area of the intersection;
one or more sensors configured to acquire intention information of the remote operator regarding right and left turns of the moving body;
a second monitor configured to display a front center image of a moving body camera configured to capture images in front of the moving body;
a third monitor configured to display a left front image of the moving body camera;
a fourth monitor configured to display a right front image of the moving body camera; and
a processor configured to:
determine, in accordance with a traveling direction of the moving body in the intersection image and the intention information, a shape of a course image indicating a planned course of the moving body from three of a course image indicating straight ahead, a course image indicating a right turn, and a course image indicating a left turn; and
display the course image in a superimposed manner on the intersection image while associating the course image with the moving body in the intersection image,
wherein the intention information is information on a line of sight of the remote operator viewing the second monitor, the third monitor, and the fourth monitor, and
wherein the processor is further configured to:
when the remote operator turns the line of sight to the front center image in the second monitor at a time of the moving body entering the intersection, select the course image indicating the straight ahead;
when the remote operator turns the line of sight to the left front image in the third monitor at a time of the moving body entering the intersection, select the course image indicating the left turn; and
when the remote operator turns the line of sight to the right front image in the fourth monitor at a time of the moving body entering the intersection, select the course image indicating the right turn.
2. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the intention information is information indicating that a blinker device operated by the remote operator is in a neutral position, a right-turn indication position, or a left-turn indication position.
3. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the intention information is information indicating an operating amount of a steering wheel operated by the remote operator.
4. The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor is further configured to horizontally flip the intersection image displayed on the first monitor when the moving body enters the intersection from a second direction opposite to a first direction, with respect to the intersection image displayed on the first monitor when the moving body enters the intersection from the first direction.
