1. An image synthesis device for an electronic mirror, the device comprising:
a rear camera which obtains a first image of a first view from a first position of a vehicle, as a rear view of the vehicle, by a first field of view;
a side camera which obtains a second image from a second position on a more front side than the first position, by a second field of view including a view obstruction as a side part of the vehicle, in a direction of the first view;
a translucent image processor which converts an image of the view obstruction included in the second image into a translucent image;
an image synthesizer which obtains a third image by synthesizing a projective transformation image, as a part of the first image, subjected to projective transformation into a view position of the side camera and corresponding to a part of the translucent image of the second image, wherein
the projective transformation image includes
a first projective transformation image obtained by subjecting an image of a viewpoint of the rear camera to projective transformation into an image of a view position of the side camera, based on a far plan position on the rear side of the vehicle, by a first image processor, and
a second projective transformation image obtained by subjecting an image of a viewpoint of the rear camera to projective transformation into an image of a viewpoint of the side camera based on a ground position closer to a capture position of the side camera than the far plan position, by a second image processor;
in the first projective transformation image or the second projective transformation image, the far plan position or the ground position is adjusted by a setting made in accordance with a speed of the vehicle; and
an opening for spraying compressed air is provided in front of lenses of the rear camera and the side camera.
