1. A control system for construction machinery, the control system comprising:
an upper camera installed in a driver cabin of a rear vehicle body to capture a first image of a front of the driver cabin;
a lower camera installed in a front vehicle body rotatably connected to the rear vehicle body to capture a second image of a front of the front vehicle body;
an angle information detection portion configured to detect information on a refraction angle of the front vehicle body with respect to the rear vehicle body;
an image processing device configured to
synthesize the first and second images into one image,
determine a position of a transparency processing area in the synthesized image according to the refraction angle information, and
transparency-process at least one of the first image or the second image in the transparency processing area; and
a display device configured to display the synthesized image transparency-processed by the image processing device, the transparent processing area being displayed at a portion of an entirety of a display area of the display device,
wherein
the image processing device includes:
a steering angle calculator configured to determine a steering hinge angle of the front vehicle body from the refraction angle information obtained by the angle information detection portion; and
a transparency processor configured to determine the position of the transparency process area in the synthesized image according to the determined steering hinge angle, and
the transparency processor is configured to, in response to refraction of the front vehicle body, change the determined position of the transparency processing area displayed at the portion of the entirety of the display area of the display device without aligning the upper camera or the lower camera before the refraction of the front vehicle body to follow the determined steering hinge angle of the front vehicle body.
