A system and the like capable of stably displaying image information
according to an object shot by infrared cameras by offsetting
disadvantages of two-dimensional image processing and three-dimensional
image processing. According to an image information processing system 100
of the present invention, a weighting factor calculation unit 140
calculates a first weighting factor C1 (0.ltoreq.C1.ltoreq.1) and a
second weighting factor C2 (=1-C1), on the basis of a measured value of a
variable according to a distance between infrared cameras 210 and an
object. Moreover, a composite image recognition unit 150 recognizes a
composite image area A composed of a first image area A1 recognized by a
first image area recognition unit 110 through the infrared camera 210 by
performing the two-dimensional image processing and the second image area
A2 recognized by a second image area recognition unit 120 through the
infrared cameras 210 by performing the three-dimensional image
processing, with being weighted by the first weighting factor C1 and the
second weighting factor C2, respectively. Then, the image information
control unit 160 causes the HUD 110 to display a frame enclosing the
composite image area A.
