Abstract
A graphic meter mounted on a vehicle is provided with a display unit of an image display type, which displays an instrument of the vehicle, an acquisition unit which acquires a course information indicating a course of the vehicle and a control unit which is connected to the display unit and the acquisition unit. The control unit controls a display content of a highlight which is displayed in the instrument of the display unit based on a position of a virtual light source located in a virtual space projected on a plane surface. The control unit identifies a change of the course of the vehicle based on the course information acquired by the acquisition unit, and causes the virtual light source to move, according to a result of the identification.
