VEHICLE DEPARTURE NOTIFICATION DISPLAY DEVICE

A vehicle departure notification display device includes a road surface rendering unit which uses light to render a departure notification display having a prescribed shape on a road surface in the direction of travel of a vehicle, and a control unit which determines whether the departure notification display is required when the vehicle departs, controls the road surface rendering unit to render the departure notification display when determined to be required, and again controls the road surface rendering unit to stop the rendered departure notification display upon determining that notification of the departure notification display is to stop, wherein the control unit causes the road surface rendering unit to render the departure notification display upon detecting information indicating that a brake with which the vehicle is provided has switched from ON to OFF, serving as a determination that the departure notification display is required.
