ABSTRACT:
A vehicle information providing apparatus determines and displays the range of presence of a person or other object based on the characteristics of images recorded by infrared cameras. An image processing unit carries out brightness change search processing in the infrared camera image zone represented by a gray scale using a search area wherein the size of a first detected area detected by binarization and correlation operation serves as the reference. In addition, the parallax between the first detected area and the searched area having a change in brightness is compared, a search area having a parallax that differs from that of the first searched area is eliminated, and a search area having a parallax identical to that of the first searched area is provided a highlighted display as an object identical to that of the first detected area.
