Abstract
A non-contact operating apparatus, for a vehicle, includes a generating unit, a projecting device, an operation detecting device, an operation determining unit, and a motion detecting device. The generating unit is configured to generate and update an image containing an image object. The image object is operable by an occupant present within a vehicle compartment. The projecting device is configured to project the image in a predetermined display region. The operation detecting device is configured to detect an operation site of the occupant. The motion detecting device is configured to detect motion of the vehicle. The operation determining unit is configured to adjust a detection result of the operation detecting device to suppress the motion of the occupant on the basis of a detection result of the motion detecting device, and determine presence or absence of the operation against the image object by the operation site.
