Abstract:
An image generating apparatus, which generates monitor image data from camera image data through a viewpoint transformation, includes a rear camera, an image processing controller, and a monitor. The image processing controller sets a virtual stereoscopic imaging plane as a virtual imaging plane of a virtual camera set at a position higher than the rear camera, transfers each picture element by a coordinate transformation between a position of each picture element of single camera image data captured by the rear camera and a position of each picture element on the virtual stereoscopic imaging plane of the virtual camera through a virtual projection plane set on ground, and generates corresponding monitor image data.
