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.

Abstract: An estimation apparatus of the present disclosure includes a same-object point information acquiring section, a candidate estimating section, and a direction estimating section. The candidate estimating section estimates, as a candidate direction, a direction that is matched with an arbitrary horizontal direction upon determining that the relative speeds gradually decrease along the arbitrary horizontal direction. The candidate estimating section estimates, as the candidate direction, an opposite direction of the arbitrary horizontal direction upon determining that the relative speeds gradually increases along the arbitrary horizontal direction. The direction estimating section estimates a moving direction of the same object based on the candidate direction.
