Abstract
A steering device includes a rotary part rotatably attached to a mobile body, and a grip part connected to the rotary part, wherein the rotary part includes a light irradiation part configured to emit light toward at least a portion of the grip part, the light irradiation part includes a light emitting element configured to emit light at an angle range that is determined in advance, and a lens configured to narrow the angle range of the light emitted by the light emitting element, and when an extension direction of the at least the portion of the grip part to which the light is emitted is assumed as a first direction, a direction perpendicular to a direction of an optical axis of the light emitted by the light irradiation part and to the first direction is assumed as a second direction, a plane including the optical axis and the first direction is assumed as a first plane, and a plane including the optical axis and the second direction is assumed as a second plane, the lens narrows the angle range of the light emitted by the light emitting element such that a first angle range is larger than a second angle range, the first angle range being an angle range in the first plane, the second angle range being an angle range in the second plane.
