Mobile device, image generation method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

Abstract

A mobile device includes an external information acquisition device configured to acquire external information around the mobile device, an acquisition device configured to acquire traffic participant information from the external information, and a display device configured to generate and display an image representing a traffic condition around the mobile device based on the external information and the traffic participant information. The traffic participant information includes attribute information of each traffic participant. When generating the image, the display device integrates a plurality of the traffic participants belonging to the same attribute and having a specific position relationship into an integrated traffic participant, and draws the integrated traffic participant as a single object. When detecting that the plurality of traffic participants are present ahead, the mobile device visually presents the traffic participants in a simplified and integrated group form, thereby reducing unnecessary complex information drawing.
