The system includes a road surface drawing unit configured to draw, with light, an external notification indication having a predetermined shape on the road surface around the vehicle, and a drawing range recognition unit configured to recognize a drawing range of the external notification indication in the captured image and recognizes at least one of a luminance and a color value around the drawing range. The road surface drawing unit is configured to adjust a luminance of the external notification indication to approach the luminance around the drawing range of the captured image, or adjust a color value of the external notification indication to approach the color value of the drawing range of the captured image.
