Abstract
A display device includes a projection device RP that projects a notification pattern on a region in the vicinity of a vehicle CAR, an imaging device RC that images the region in the vicinity of the vehicle, and an object detection device OS capable of detecting an object (third party) present in a region which cannot be imaged by the imaging device RC. When the object detection device OS detects the object, the projection device RP projects the notification pattern in a form different from the notification in a normal state, so that the third party can visually recognize the notification pattern. The imaging device RC images a region including a region on which the notification pattern is projected, and displays, on a monitor MO visually checkable by the occupant, a captured image of the notification pattern projected in the form different from the notification pattern in the normal state.
