PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a user to easily get to know a boundary between an image viewed via an electronic mirror and a surrounding of the image.SOLUTION: A display control device connected to an imaging device comprises: an acquisition part which acquires, from the imaging device, image data obtained by imaging a rear of a vehicle by the imaging device; an edge image generation part which generates edge image data clearly showing a periphery portion of the acquired image data viewed via an electronic mirror placed at a position of a cabin rearview mirror of the vehicle; a display image generation part which superimposes the generated edge image data on the acquired image data and generates display image data; and a control part which performs control such that the generated display image data is viewed via the electronic mirror.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】 電子ミラーを介して視認される画像と、当該画像周辺との境目をわかりやすくする。【解決手段】 撮像装置に接続される表示制御装置であって、前記撮像装置が車両の後方を撮影することで得た画像データを前記撮像装置より取得する取得部と、前記車両の室内後写鏡の位置に配置された電子ミラーを介して視認される前記画像データの周縁部分を明示するエッジ画像データを生成するエッジ画像生成部と、取得した前記画像データに、生成した前記エッジ画像データを重畳し、表示画像データを生成する表示画像生成部と、生成した前記表示画像データが前記電子ミラーを介して視認されるよう制御する制御部とを有する。【選択図】図４
