Abstract

To automatically select a video of a location matching a hobby or a taste of a passenger, and display the video in a vehicle interior. A display control device includes: an acquisition unit configured to acquire passenger information of a mobile object; a specification unit configured to specify a location suitable for a hobby or a taste of a passenger on the basis of the passenger information; and a control unit configured to control a video displayed in the mobile object on the basis of the specified location. For example, the acquisition unit acquires at least one of an image accumulated in the information terminal or history information of processing executed by the information terminal, as the passenger information, and the specification unit specifies the location on the basis of an analysis result of the image or the history information.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A display control device, comprising:
 circuitry configured to:
 control a display device to display, in a vehicle, an image; 
 control the display device to superimpose a first agent image on the displayed image; 
 determine whether a movement rate of the vehicle exceeds a first threshold value; and 
 switch a display of the superimposed first agent image to a display of a superimposed second agent image, based on the determination that the movement rate of the vehicle exceeds the first threshold value. 
   
     
     
         2 . The display control device according to  claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to
 determine whether the movement rate of the vehicle is lower than a second threshold value; and   switch the display of the superimposed second agent image to the display of the superimposed first agent image, based on the determination that the movement rate of the vehicle is lower than the second threshold value, wherein the second threshold value is lower than the first threshold value.   
     
     
         3 . The display control device according to  claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to control the display device to display the image based on at least one of information of an outdoor environment of the vehicle, information on climate outside the vehicle, information on temperature, information on humidity, information on weather, information on a destination of the vehicle, or a movement path of the vehicle. 
     
     
         4 . The display control device according to  claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to control the display device to display the image based on a feature amount of the image. 
     
     
         5 . The display control device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the circuitry is further configured to:
 acquire passenger information associated with a passenger of the vehicle; 
 determine a location based on the passenger information, wherein
 the determined location is associated with a hobby of the passenger, and 
 the displayed image is of the determined location. 
 
   
     
     
         6 . The display control device according to  claim 5 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to control the display device to display a subject in the displayed image. 
     
     
         7 . The display control device according to  claim 5 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to extract subject information of a subject based on a feature amount of at least one of a movement vector or an edge of the displayed image. 
     
     
         8 . The display control device according to  claim 5 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to control the display device to display a subject based on attribution information of the subject. 
     
     
         9 . The display control device according to  claim 5 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to delete a subject from the displayed image. 
     
     
         10 . The display control device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the superimposed first agent image is in a first color, and   the superimposed second agent image is in a second color different from the first color.   
     
     
         11 . The display control device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the superimposed first agent image has a first expression, and   the superimposed second agent image has a second expression different from the first expression.   
     
     
         12 . A display control method, comprising:
 controlling a display device to display, in a vehicle, an image;   controlling the display device to superimpose a first agent image on the displayed image;   determining whether a movement rate of the vehicle exceeds a first threshold value; and   switching a display of the superimposed first agent image to a display of a superimposed second agent image, based on the determination that the movement rate of the vehicle exceeds the first threshold value.   
     
     
         13 . The display control method according to  claim 12 , further comprising
 determining whether the movement rate of the vehicle is lower than a second threshold value; and   switching the display of the superimposed second agent image to the display of the superimposed first agent image, based on the determination that the movement rate of the vehicle is lower than the second threshold value, wherein the second threshold value is lower than the first threshold value.   
     
     
         14 . The display control method according to  claim 12 , further comprising controlling the display device to display the image based on at least one of information of an outdoor environment of the vehicle, information on climate outside the vehicle, information on temperature, information on humidity, information on weather, information on a destination of the vehicle, or a movement path of the vehicle. 
     
     
         15 . The display control method according to  claim 12 , further comprising controlling the display device to display the image based on a feature amount of the image. 
     
     
         16 . The display control method according to  claim 12 , further comprising
 acquiring passenger information associated with a passenger of the vehicle;   determining a location based on the passenger information, wherein
 the determined location is associated with a hobby of the passenger, and 
 the displayed image is of the determined location. 
   
     
     
         17 . The display control method according to  claim 16 , further comprising controlling the display device to display a subject in the displayed image. 
     
     
         18 . The display control method according to  claim 16 , further comprising extracting subject information of a subject based on a feature amount of at least one of a movement vector or an edge of the displayed image. 
     
     
         19 . The display control method according to  claim 16 , further comprising controlling the display device to display a subject based on attribution information of the subject.
