Abstract
A vehicle blind-spot reduction device includes side-view mirrors on sides of a vehicle, an actuator configured to move an optical display of each of the side-view mirrors, a detector configured to detect a display position of the optical display, a surrounding environment information acquirer configured to acquire environment information on surrounding of the vehicle, a moving object detector configured to detect a moving object running beside the vehicle on the basis of the surrounding environment information, a blind spot setter configured to set a blind spot of each of the side-view mirrors on the basis of the display position of the optical display, and a display surface adjuster. Based on determining that the moving object has entered the blind spot, the display surface adjuster causes the actuator to operate to adjust the display position of the optical display.
