Abstract: An object of the present disclosure is to provide a vehicle outside monitoring apparatus capable of appropriately dealing with an attention-requiring state when a specific target object other than the subject vehicle or target person is in the attention-requiring state. A vehicle outside monitoring apparats according to the present disclosure includes: a monitoring target information acquisition unit acquiring monitoring target information of at least one monitoring target located around a subject vehicle; a periphery information acquisition unit acquiring periphery information around the subject vehicle; an attention-requiring state determination unit determining whether or not the monitoring target is in an attention-requiring state based on the monitoring target information and the periphery information; and a controller controlling the subject vehicle so that the subject vehicle avoids the attention-requiring state when the attention-requiring state determination unit determines that the monitoring target is in the attention-requiring state.

Abstract: The present disclosure is intended to notify an off-board passenger of a hazardous situation occurring around a target vehicle in the presence of an on-board passenger in the vehicle. A notification controller according to the present disclosure includes: an on-board passenger judgment unit, if at least one passenger in a target vehicle gets out of the vehicle to become an off-board passenger, the on-board passenger judgment unit judging whether there is a different passenger staying in the target vehicle; a hazard judgment unit that judges whether a hazardous situation is occurring around the target vehicle if there is an on-board passenger; and a notification control unit that makes radio communication with a communication terminal of the off-board passenger to make outward notification that is notification indicating the occurrence of the hazardous situation to the off-board passenger if the hazard judgment unit judges that the hazardous situation is occurring.

Abstract: A caution-required feature detector in a projection control apparatus detects a caution-required feature that is a feature with a solid shape that impacts on traveling of a subject vehicle. An optical illusion image generating unit generates an optical illusion image that recalls the solid shape of the caution-required feature. An alert determination unit determines whether alerting the caution-required feature is necessary. A projection controller causes a projector to project the optical illusion image at a position corresponding to a position of the caution-required feature determined as requiring the alert.
