A vehicle door opening/closing control system that sets a communication range inside a vehicle cabin of a vehicle, and detects whether or not a specific mobile terminal is positioned within the communication range; opens and closes a door of the vehicle; and transitions the door to either an open state or a closed state in a case in which the mobile terminal has been detected as being positioned within the communication range.

A loading determination system includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to acquire a dimension of a loading space in a vehicle, acquire image data of luggage to be loaded, compute a dimension of the luggage based on the acquired image data, and determine whether or not loading of the luggage into the loading space is possible by comparing the acquired dimension of the loading space with the computed dimension of the luggage.

A vehicle in-cabin lighting system includes: an outward gaze guiding section that is provided inside a vehicle cabin at a vehicle front side and at a vehicle width direction outer side of a vehicle seat, and that becomes brighter than its surroundings on activation of an outer side lighting device; and a control section that is configured to determine whether or not an occupant sifting on the vehicle seat has an interest in interacting with another occupant inside the vehicle cabin based on detection of operation of an operation section by the occupant or based on detection of a state of the occupant, and to activate the outer side lighting device so as to make the outward gaze guiding section brighter in a case in which determination is made that there is no interest in interacting.

A vehicle cabin lighting system includes: a lighting device that is provided inside a vehicle cabin and that is configured to move a position of light; and a control section that is configured to determine whether or not an occupant sitting on a vehicle seat has an interest in interacting with another occupant inside the vehicle cabin based on operation of an operation section by the occupant or based on a state of the occupant sitting on the vehicle seat, and to control the lighting device so as to move the position of the light in order to direct a gaze direction of the occupant toward a vehicle width direction outer side in a case in which no interest in interacting has been determined.
