Abstract
An individual ECU (luminance adjustment apparatus) adjusts a luminance value of a lamp. The individual ECU adjusts the luminance value of the lamp according to a luminance pattern in which luminance values are indicated in keeping with elapsed time in one cycle. The individual ECU acquires a synchronization count value (or 'time value') relating to the luminance pattern and changes an adjustment count value (or “actual value”) of the elapsed time in one cycle based on the acquired synchronization count value.
