`emphasize the rearmost portion of the vehicle captured on the screen by camera 7.
`
`Further, a more cognitively comprehensible display can be provided, by drawing frames aligned at equal intervals along a path
`on the ground as shown in Fig. 3(b) so as to present a sense of perspective, or by drawing a vehicle body as a box on the basis
`of a path of front and rear wheels in a given position as shown in Fig. 3(c),
