Original Abstract Submitted
A parking assist method according to the present disclosure is for performing autonomous driving of a vehicle on the basis of teacher driving by a driver. The parking assist method includes acquiring, from an imaging device installed in the vehicle, captured images obtained by imaging periphery of the vehicle in time series according to movement of the vehicle during the teacher driving. The method includes recording a travel route of the vehicle in the teacher driving, and generating, on the basis of the captured images, a first enlarged overhead image of a display target range viewed from above. The display target range covers the travel route and a periphery of the travel route. The method further includes causing a display device to display the first enlarged overhead image.
