System and method for displaying vehicle driving information

A control device comprising:

• a processor;
• wherein the processor performs operations as:
• a communication unit configured to receive a captured image or side-rear vehicle information;
• a side-rear vehicle recognition unit configured to recognize a location and vehicle distance of a side-rear vehicle in relation to an ego vehicle by analyzing the side-rear vehicle information, and determine whether to issue a BSD warning based on the recognized location and vehicle distance of the side-rear vehicle;
• and
• an image processing unit configured to control BSD warning icons of the ego vehicle and the side-rear vehicle to be displayed as an OSD of the captured image, when the BSD warning is warranted,
• wherein:
• the BSD warning icons of the ego vehicle and the side-rear vehicle are expressed as the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon;
• the image processing unit converts the distance between the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon based on the vehicle distance between the ego vehicle and the side-rear vehicle, determines the locations of the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon according to the converted distance, and displays the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon as an OSD at the determined locations on a screen;
• and
• the image processing unit converts the vehicle distance into a distance between the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon, using a size ratio of the ego vehicle to the ego vehicle indicator icon.

A method for displaying vehicle driving information, comprising:

• receiving, by a control device, a captured image or side-rear vehicle information;
• recognizing, by the control device, the location and vehicle distance of a side-rear vehicle by analyzing the side-rear vehicle information;
• determining, by the control device, whether to issue a BSD warning based on the recognized location and vehicle distance of the side-rear vehicle;
• and
• controlling, by the control device, BSD warning icons of an ego vehicle and the side-rear vehicle to be displayed as an OSD of the captured image, when the BSD warning is warranted,
• wherein:
• the controlling of the BSD warning icons of the ego vehicle and the side-rear vehicle to be displayed as the OSD of the captured image comprises:
• converting the distance between an ego vehicle indicator icon and a side-rear vehicle indicator icon based on the vehicle distance between the ego vehicle and the side-rear vehicle;
• determining the locations of the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon according to the converted distance;
• and
• displaying the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon as an OSD at the determined locations;
• and
• in the converting of the distance between the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon, the control device converts the vehicle distance between the ego vehicle and the side-rear vehicle into a distance between the ego vehicle indicator icon and the side-rear vehicle indicator icon, using a size ratio of the ego vehicle to the ego vehicle indicator icon.
