PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a user from wrongly recognizing a three-dimensional object existing in a duplicate region.SOLUTION: An image generation apparatus used in a vehicle comprises: acquisition means 21, generation means 22, and change means 23. The acquisition means acquire a plurality of captured images obtained by a plurality of cameras 5 arranged at different positions of the vehicle. The generation means generate a virtual viewpoint image indicating the surroundings of the vehicle viewed from a virtual viewpoint by using at least one of the plurality of captured images. The change means consecutively change the sight line direction of the virtual viewpoint. In the case of consecutively changing the sight line direction of the virtual viewpoint, the change means can suspend the change of the sight line direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
【課題】重複領域に存在する立体物についてユーザが誤認することを防止する。【解決手段】車両において用いられる画像生成装置であって、取得手段21と、生成手段22と、変更手段23とを備える。取得手段は、車両の異なる位置に配置された複数のカメラ5で得られた複数の撮像画像を取得する。生成手段は、複数の撮像画像の少なくとも1つを用いて、仮想視点からみた車両の周辺を示す仮想視点画像を生成する。変更手段は、仮想視点の視線方向を連続的に変更する。また、変更手段は、仮想視点の視線方向を連続的に変更している場合に、視線方向の変更を中断可能にする。【選択図】図1
