Abstract: An automated driving enabled vehicle includes a travel controller, an automated driving indicator lamp, and a lamp controller. The automated driving indicator lamp is switched on perceptibly from outside the vehicle on the occasion of automated driving. The lamp controller acquires, during the execution of the automated driving, information regarding a surrounding moving body present around the vehicle. The lamp controller makes a lighting control of the automated driving indicator lamp during the execution of the automated driving, in response to presence of any surrounding moving body around the vehicle executing the automated driving.

Abstract: An automated driving enabled vehicle includes a travel controller, an automated driving indicator lamp, and a lamp controller. The automated driving indicator lamp is configured to be switched on perceptibly from outside the vehicle on the occasion of automated driving. The lamp controller is configured to start a lighting control of the automated driving indicator lamp that has been off, before the vehicle makes a departure by the automated driving, on the condition that the vehicle is about to make the departure by the automated driving from a parked or stopped state with the automated driving indicator lamp off.

Abstract: A road surface assessment apparatus for a vehicle includes an illumination device, a detector, and an assessment unit. The illumination device is configured to emit pattern light to a road surface on which the vehicle runs, or a surrounding of the vehicle. The detector is configured to detect the emitted pattern light. The assessment unit is configured to assess a condition of the road surface, on the basis of the detected pattern light. The illumination device intermittently emits the pattern light for a short time in such a manner that a period of time for which the pattern light is not emitted is longer than a period of time for which the pattern light is emitted.

Abstract: Provided is an image display device for a vehicle, in which the vehicle travels on a road and includes a first image display unit that displays a transmissive image inside the vehicle for an occupant. The image display device includes a second image display unit and a display controller. The second image display unit displays a road-surface image on a road surface of the road. The display controller stops displaying any one of the transmissive image and the road-surface image, on the condition that the transmissive image displayed by the first image display unit and the road-surface image displayed by the second image display unit appear superimposed on each other.

Abstract: A vehicle having a road-surface rendering function includes a light projection member, a detection device, and a control unit. The light projection member performs light projection for road-surface rendering in the traveling vehicle and renders a road-surface rendered image onto a road surface surrounding the traveling vehicle. The detection device performs detection of a detection range larger than a light projection range in which the road-surface rendered image is rendered by the light projection member. The control unit controls the light projection for the road-surface rendering by the light projection member in accordance with the detection. The control unit determines whether the road-surface rendering is adequate at least in an outer area of the road surface located outside the light projection range with respect the detection range, and suppresses the light projection when the road-surface rendered image passes a road-surface area determined as being inadequate for the road-surface rendering.

Abstract: An image display device includes a light illuminator, a crossing-facility detector, an image position determiner, and an illumination controller. The light illuminator is configured to send out light frontward of a first vehicle as an own vehicle, to display an image for a pedestrian. The crossing-facility detector is configured to detect a crossing facility provided on the road. The image position determiner is configured to determine, on the basis of a position of the crossing facility, whether or not a display position of the image is included in a no-crossing region near the crossing facility. The illumination controller is configured to control display operation of the light illuminator, to prompt the pedestrian to cross along the crossing facility, on the condition that the image position determiner determines that the display position of the image is included in the no-crossing region.

Abstract: An image display device includes an illuminator and a communicator. The illuminator is configured to send out light on a road surface around a first vehicle as an own vehicle, to display a first notification image on the road surface. The first notification image notifies information to surroundings of the first vehicle. The communicator is configured to perform inter-vehicle communication with a second vehicle other than the first vehicle. The illuminator is configured to display the first notification image on the basis of the inter-vehicle communication performed by the communicator.

Abstract: A vehicle having a road-surface rendering function includes a light projection member, a control unit, and a detection device. The light projection member is configured to perform light projection for road-surface rendering at least toward a road surface ahead of the vehicle. The control unit is configured to control the light projection for the road-surface rendering by the light projection member. The detection device is configured to perform detection of the road surface onto which the light projection member performs the light projection for the road-surface rendering. The control unit is configured to perform control to suppress the light projection for the road-surface rendering by at least determining insufficient reflection in the road-surface rendering in the vehicle based on the detection of the road surface by the detection device.
