In-vehicle passive entry lighting control system

An in-vehicle equipment control system comprising:

• a mobile terminal configured to receive a request signal transmitted from a vehicle and transmit a response signal to the vehicle according to the received request signal;
• and
• in-vehicle equipment having:
• an imaging part configured to image surroundings of the vehicle;
• an illumination part installed at a fixed position of the vehicle and configured to radiate light;
• a transmission/reception part configured to periodically transmit a request signal to the surroundings of the vehicle and receive a response signal from the mobile terminal;
• an imaging controller configured to cause the imaging part to image an outside of the vehicle when the response signal is received by the transmission/reception part;
• an object recognition part configured to recognize a presence of a hazardous object on the basis of the image imaged by the imaging part;
• and
• an illumination controller configured to control the illumination part to perform illumination in different ways when the hazardous object is recognized by the object recognition part and when the hazardous object is not recognized,
• wherein the object recognition part determines whether the hazardous object is recognized at a boarding/deboarding position of the vehicle,
• wherein, when a hazardous object is recognized by the object recognition part, the illumination controller causes the illumination part to illuminate a guide path, which guides a user who carries the mobile terminal to the boarding/deboarding position of the vehicle, at a region in which the hazardous object is not present.
