IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE

The present invention provides an image processing device capable of enabling accurate recognition of a solid object present near a vehicle and displaying the solid object. The image processing device includes a viewpoint conversion unit for receiving data of images captured by at least one image capturing camera and generating a top view image, a solid object extraction unit for detecting a solid object from the data of the images captured by the at least one image capturing camera and extracting the solid object, a solid object image generation unit for generating a solid object image in accordance with the solid object extracted by the solid object extraction unit, and an image synthesis unit for synthesizing the solid object image generated by the solid object image generation unit with the top view image generated by the viewpoint conversion unit.
