Abstract:
This vehicle system (2) is provided with a vehicular lamp (42H), an information acquisition unit (6) for acquiring vehicle peripheral information, and a vehicle control unit (3). The vehicle lamp (42H) has: a first light source (44) for emitting visible light; a second light source (45) for emitting infrared light; a rotary reflector that rotates while reflecting visible light and infrared light and scans the visible light and the infrared light along a horizontal direction on a virtual vertical screen; a light-receiving unit (47) that receives the return light of the infrared light reflected from the periphery of the vehicle; and a lamp control unit (43) that controls the light sources (44, 45), the rotary reflector, and the light-receiving unit (47). Either the vehicle control unit (3) or the lamp control unit (43) is configured to acquire the positional information of a target outside the vehicle on the basis of the vehicle peripheral information acquired by the information acquisition unit (6), and correct the positional information on the basis of the information about the returned light of the infrared light received by the light-receiving unit (47).
