Driving support device, driving support method, and storage medium storing driving support program

A driving support method of supporting driving performed by a driver of a vehicle, comprising:

• judging a target object that is a real object existing in a vicinity of the vehicle and should be paid attention to by the driver based on vicinity information acquired by a vicinity detector that captures an image of or detects a real object existing in the vicinity of the vehicle;
• generating a visual attraction stimulation image that appears to move from a position farther than the target object towards a position where the target object exists;
• causing a display device that displays an image in superimposition on the real object to display the visual attraction stimulation image;
• and
• receiving body information from a body information detector that acquires the body information on the driver, calculating a value indicating body reaction to visual stimulation sensed by the driver from the body information, and correcting a display parameter that determines display condition of the visual attraction stimulation image based on the value indicating the body reaction so as to change a degree of the visual stimulation given to the driver by the visual attraction stimulation image.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a driving support program for supporting driving performed by a driver of a vehicle, wherein the driving support program causes a computer to execute processing comprising:

• judging a target object that is a real object existing in a vicinity of the vehicle and should be paid attention to by the driver based on vicinity information acquired by a vicinity detector that captures an image of or detects a real object existing in the vicinity of the vehicle;
• generating a visual attraction stimulation image that appears to move from a position farther than the target object towards a position where the target object exists;
• causing a display device that displays an image in superimposition on the real object to display the visual attraction stimulation image;
• and
• receiving body information from a body information detector that acquires the body information on the driver, calculating a value indicating body reaction to visual stimulation sensed by the driver from the body information, and correcting a display parameter that determines display condition of the visual attraction stimulation image based on the value indicating the body reaction so as to change a degree of the visual stimulation given to the driver by the visual attraction stimulation image.
