Abstract

An operation input reception unit (201) receives an operation input for a virtual vehicle. A running condition managing unit (203) manages the running conditions of the virtual vehicle based on the received operation input. An acceleration calculation unit (205) calculates an acceleration in a front or back direction caused by an inertia force in a case where a managed running condition is acceleration / deceleration, and calculates an acceleration in the left or right direction caused by a centrifugal force in a case where a managed running condition is turning. A meter producing unit (206) produces a meter image showing the direction and level of acceleration based on the acceleration calculated by the acceleration calculation unit (205). A display control unit (207) synthesizes a view field image produced by an image producing unit (204) and the meter image produced by the meter producing unit (206), and displays the image on an external monitor or the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image generation device, an acceleration display method, and a program suitable for appropriately visualizing accelerations and the like that occur along with running conditions (moving conditions) of a moving body in a virtual space. Background technique [0002] Currently, game devices for business use or home use are widely used. In such a game device, as an example, entertainment of a racing game using vehicles such as vehicles can be performed. [0003] In such a racing game, for example, the player usually drives an F1 racing car or a commercially available car in a virtual space to a predetermined target point by operating a controller, etc., and competes with other vehicles for the order of arrival. [0004] Recently, racing games that allow you to drive a vehicle with a feeling close to that of a real vehicle by adding the output of the engine, the rigidity of the suspension, and the performance of the tire...
