Side turn signal lamp, periphery monitoring device,body construction and imaging device for vehicle
First Claim
1. A side turn signal light provided in a vehicle, comprising:
- a lamp bulb that flashes based upon a predetermined flash control; and
an infrared light reduction member which reduces infrared light of flashing light emitted by the lamp bulb and which is provided for one of the lamp bulb and a periphery of the lamp bulb.

Abstract
A side turn signal light that flashes during operation is disposed on a vehicle body side surface of a vehicle. Further, a camera that images a vehicle side zone that includes the side turn signal light in a section thereof, and a near-infrared LED for night-time illumination are respectively housed in a door mirror. A coating that allows visible light component to pass through while reducing near-infrared component is applied to a lamp bulb of the side turn signal light. Alternatively, a film that allows visible light component to pass through while reducing near-infared component is applied to a lens of the side turn signal light.

3. A vehicle periphery monitoring device comprising:
-
an imaging unit which is sensitive to infrared light and which is disposed such that a vehicle side zone including a side turn signal light provided on a vehicle body side surface can be imaged;
a display unit that displays a shot image that is imaged by the imaging unit; and
a display control portion that inhibits display on the display unit of the shot image from the imaging unit when the side turn signal light is lit. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
