Vehicle display control device, display method, and storage medium
A vehicle display control device displays a predetermined image at a display region showing a view ahead of a vehicle, the device including: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory, the processor being configured to: acquire a travel state of the vehicle, and in a case in which the acquired travel state is a first mode in which an object ahead of the vehicle is detected and travel of the vehicle is controlled, display, at the display region, a first image indicating that the travel state is the first mode at a position that does not overlap with the object ahead of the vehicle.
1 . A vehicle display control device configured to display a predetermined image at a display region showing a view ahead of a vehicle and provided at a windshield glass of the vehicle, the device comprising:
a memory; and
a processor coupled to the memory, the processor being configured to:
acquire a travel state of the vehicle after a cruise control function is activated,
in a case in which the acquired travel state is a first mode in which a moving object ahead of the vehicle is detected and travel of the vehicle is controlled so as to follow the moving object, display, at the display region, a first image indicating that the travel state is the first mode in a space between an actual image of the moving object viewed through the windshield glass and the vehicle,
in a case in which the acquired travel state is a second mode enabling a switch to the first mode in the case in which the moving object ahead of the vehicle is detected, the second mode being a mode in which the moving object ahead of the vehicle is not currently detected, display, at the display region, a second image indicating that the travel state is the second mode in the space,
wherein the first image is configured to comprise a first object being an image simulating a travel lane, and indicating that an executed functionality in the first mode is turned on and displayed at a lower and side portion of the display region, and a second object being displayed in larger size than the first object and being an image in which a plurality of markers extending in a road width direction are arranged side by side in a travel direction of the vehicle in a center portion of the display region, and
wherein the second image consists of the first object.
2 . The vehicle display control device recited in claim 1 , wherein, after the travel state of the vehicle has been acquired, the processor is further configured to cause the image displayed at the display region to change to the first image or the second image, in a case in which an amount of change related to the acquired travel state of the vehicle is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value.
3 . The vehicle display control device recited in claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to enable switching of the image displayed at the display region to the first image in a case in which the vehicle is traveling in a predetermined travel area.
4 . The vehicle display control device recited in claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to not display the first image at the display region in a case in which a difference in relative velocity between the vehicle and the object is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value at a time at which the vehicle is traveling in the first mode.
5 . The vehicle display control device recited in claim 1 , wherein:
the display region comprises a projection plane that is projected onto by a head-up display at a vehicle front side relative to a driver's seat, and
the processor is further configured to display the first image between the vehicle and the object in a view ahead of the vehicle that is viewed through the display region.
6 . The vehicle display control device of claim 1 , wherein a number of markers extending in the road width direction corresponds to a distance to the moving object ahead of the vehicle.
7 . A method of displaying a predetermined image at a display region showing a view ahead of a vehicle and provided at a windshield glass of the vehicle, the method comprising:
acquiring a travel state of the vehicle after a cruise control function is activated;
in a case in which the acquired travel state is a first mode in which a moving object ahead of the vehicle is detected and travel of the vehicle is controlled so as to follow the moving object, displaying, at the display region, a first image indicating that the travel state is the first mode in a space between an actual image of the moving object viewed through the windshield glass and the vehicle,
in a case in which the acquired travel state is a second mode enabling a switch to the first mode in the case in which the moving object ahead of the vehicle is detected, the second mode being a mode in which the moving object ahead of the vehicle is not currently detected, displaying, at the display region, a second image indicating that the travel state is the second mode in the space,
wherein the first image is configured to comprise a first object being an image simulating a travel lane, and indicating that an executed functionality in the first mode is turned on and displayed at a lower and side portion of the display region, and a second object being displayed in larger size than the first object and being an image in which a plurality of markers extending in a road width direction are arranged side by side in a travel direction of the vehicle in a center portion of the display region, and
wherein the second image consists of the first object.
8 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program executable by a processor to perform processing for displaying a predetermined image at a display region showing a view ahead of a vehicle and provided at a windshield glass of the vehicle, the processing comprising:
acquiring a travel state of the vehicle after a cruise control function is activated;
in a case in which the acquired travel state is a first mode in which a moving object ahead of the vehicle is detected and travel of the vehicle is controlled so as to follow the moving object, displaying, at the display region, a first image indicating that the travel state is the first mode in a space between an actual image of the moving object viewed through the windshield glass and the vehicle,
in a case in which the acquired travel state is a second mode enabling a switch to the first mode in the case in which the moving object ahead of the vehicle is detected, the second mode being a mode in which the moving object ahead of the vehicle is not currently detected, displaying, at the display region, a second image indicating that the travel state is the second mode in the space,
wherein the first image is configured to comprise a first object being an image simulating a travel lane, and indicating that an executed functionality in the first mode is turned on and displayed at a lower and side portion of the display region, and a second object being displayed in larger size than the first object and being an image in which a plurality of markers extending in a road width direction are arranged side by side in a travel direction of the vehicle in a center portion of the display region, and
wherein the second image consists of the first object.
