PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique capable of calling attention even of a pedestrian walking while viewing a hand side such as the screen of a smart phone by radiating light.SOLUTION: A circumferential image obtained by imaging the circumference from a self vehicle is acquired. Then, a pedestrian in a predetermined posture such as a pedestrian viewing the screen of a smart phone, for example, is detected as a target pedestrian requiring attention calling from the circumferential image. Since the target pedestrian detected in this way is in the predetermined posture, the hand position viewed by the target pedestrian is identified based on the predetermined posture, so as to irradiate the identified hand position with spot light. Consequently, even when a pedestrian is walking while viewing the hand side such as the screen of the smart phone, the hand side viewed by the pedestrian is irradiated with light, to thereby enable calling attention of the pedestrian.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
