Abstract
A vehicle translation information projection system mounted on a vehicle, comprising a language recognition unit that recognizes a language displayed on a traffic sign object within an image captured by a front camera of the vehicle, a translation processing unit that translates language content different from the user language on the traffic sign object into user language content when the language displayed on the traffic sign object is different from a preset user language, and a projection display unit that projects information onto the front glass of the vehicle, wherein the projection display unit projects user language content onto the front glass so that it is positioned above or near the traffic sign object when viewed from the driver of the vehicle.
