Abstract: An in-vehicle equipment control system includes a mobile terminal configured to receive a request signal and transmit a response signal; and in-vehicle equipment having: an imaging part that images surroundings of the vehicle; an illumination part that radiates light; a transmission/reception part that periodically transmits a request signal to the surroundings of the vehicle and receive a response signal from the mobile terminal; an imaging controller that causes 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 that recognizes a presence of a hazardous object on the basis of the captured image; and an illumination controller that controls 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.
