Image projector
A vehicle comprises an image projector assembled to an underbody of the vehicle. The image projector has a bracket, a housing and an image emitter. The bracket is fixed to the underbody. The bracket has a plurality of first indentations. The housing has a plurality of second indentations that mate with the first indentations. The housing is adjustably disposed with respect to the bracket along the first and second indentations. The image emitter is provided in the housing and at least partially extends from the housing. The angle between the image emitter and the bracket changes as the housing is adjusted with respect to the bracket.
