Abstract: An intersecting road estimation device includes an object detection unit that detects an object existing around an own vehicle and a position of the object, an object extraction unit that extracts a stationary object and a position of the stationary object from an object detection result, a first estimation unit that estimates a road edge of a traveling road on which the own vehicle is traveling based on the position of the stationary object, a candidate extraction unit that extracts a stationary object existing outside the road edge of the traveling road estimated by the first estimation unit as a candidate for an outside stationary object representing a road edge of an intersecting road intersecting the traveling road, and a second estimation unit that estimates the road edge of the intersecting road based on a position of the outside stationary object extracted by the candidate extraction unit.

Abstract: The position detecting apparatus repeatedly acquires, from a radar apparatus, object information including at least an object distance as a distance between the radar apparatus and a reflecting object and a relative speed between the radar apparatus and a reflecting object. The position detecting apparatus calculates a speed ratio as a ratio between the relative speed and the travelling speed. The position detecting apparatus calculates, based on the speed ratio, a projection distance between a projected position of the reflecting object projected onto a projection plane and a position of the radar apparatus on the projection plane, the projection plane having a predetermined angle with respect to a center axis indicating a direction along which the radar waves are transmitted by the radar apparatus and including the radar apparatus. The position detection apparatus calculates the position of the reflecting object based on the calculated projection distance.

Abstract: An executing unit is configured to execute at least one of control of operating performance of a plurality of sensors which monitor different regions around a vehicle and predetermined processing for each of a plurality of output values output from the plurality of sensors. A specifying unit is configured to specify a direction of the vehicle with respect to a reference direction set on the basis of a road around the vehicle. A setting unit is configured to set priorities of the plurality of sensors in accordance with the direction of the vehicle specified by the specifying unit. The executing unit changes at least one of ratios of the operating performance of the plurality of sensors and ratios of amounts of processing performed for the plurality of output values on the basis of the priorities.
