Abstract

An image projection device which is mounted on a vehicle or worn by a driver of the vehicle includes a control unit and a projection unit. The control unit accepts a selection for specifying a particular user, detects a current location, acquires an image showing at least a part of an appearance of the particular user, which is captured when the particular user has previously driven a particular user's vehicle at a location which is the same as or near to the current location, and projects the image onto a driver's seat of the vehicle by the projection unit.
