Abstract
A vehicle with a road surface rendering function includes a projection member, a controller, and a detection device. The projection member is configured to project perform light projection for road surface rendering at least toward a road surface ahead of the vehicle. The controller is configured to control the light projection for the road surface rendering by the projection member. The detection device is configured to perform detection of a road surface rendered image rendered on the road surface by the projection member. The controller is configured to determine whether the road surface rendered image has a bright spot based on the detection of the road surface rendered image by the detection device. The controller is configured to suppress the light projection for the road surface rendering by the projection member when the road surface rendered image has the bright spot.
