Abstract: An image capture control device includes a recognition unit that determines whether a peripheral situation corresponds to a predetermined situation based on image data, and a controller that controls an infrared light irradiation unit to increase a pulse number of transmission pulses to be emitted to a target, when the recognition unit determines that the peripheral situation corresponds to the predetermined situation.

Abstract: A first data group, which indicates reflection wave intensities from reflection points for radar directions indicating directions in which the corresponding reflection points exist relative to a radar apparatus and distances from the radar apparatus to the reflection points, and a second data group, which indicates Doppler velocities of the reflection points for the radar directions and the distances from the radar apparatus to the reflection points, are used to generate a third data group, which indicates the reflection wave intensities of the reflection points. A radar moving direction relative to a moving direction of the vehicle for each frame is generated based on the third data group. The radar moving direction when the moving direction of the vehicle is straight ahead is estimated using the radar moving direction in a predetermined number of frames, and the radar installation angle is calculated using the estimated radar moving direction.
