Abstract
An image display device includes a light illuminator, a space detector, a travel information acquirer, a possibility calculator, 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 on a road a pedestrian is going to cross. The space detector is configured to detect a travel space sideward of the first vehicle. The possibility calculator is configured to calculate travel possibility that a second vehicle other than the first vehicle travels through the travel space, on the basis of travel information acquired by the travel information acquirer and on the basis of a position of the travel space detected by the space detector. The illumination controller is configured to control the light illuminator to display a no-crossing image on the condition that the travel possibility is equal to or larger than a predetermined value.
