    摘要: A reflection-point estimation section constituting an object detection apparatus first calculates a rotational correction angle for each estimated reflection point Pn by using the following equation, using the fact that the ratio of the amount of change in a detected distance dn to a movement amount In of a sonar is nearly equal to a tangent with respect to the direction normal to the surface of an object: Rotational correction angleφ=atan{(dn+1−dn)/In} in which n is a natural number. Subsequently, the reflection-point estimation section obtains estimated reflection points Pn′ after correction, by rotating each estimated reflection point Pn based on the calculation result.

    摘要: An approaching vehicle detecting system that detects an approaching vehicle on the basis of sounds collected by a plurality of sound collectors mounted on a host vehicle determines whether a transverse moving direction of a sound source detected by the plurality of sound collectors is a direction approaching the host vehicle, determines whether a vertical position of the sound source detected using the plurality of sound collectors is in the same plane as that of the host vehicle, and detects that sound source as the approaching vehicle when it is determined that the transverse moving direction of the sound source is the direction approaching the host vehicle and the vertical position of the sound source is in the same plane as that of the host vehicle.

    摘要: In a parking support device, a distance measuring unit measures a quantity equivalent to a distance from an automotive vehicle to an object existing in a predetermined direction. A storage unit stores a sequence of points indicating results of the measurement performed multiple times. A first object specifying unit generates first object information based on the sequence of points when a length of the sequence of points has exceeded a first reference length. A second object specifying unit generates second object information based on the sequence of points when a length of the sequence of points has exceeded a second, larger reference length. A target parking position is determined based on the first object information in a stage where the first object information is generated.

    摘要: A neighboring object information acquisition device comprises a distance measuring unit measuring a quantity equivalent to a distance to a neighboring object in a predetermined direction. A storage unit stores a sequence of points indicating results of the measurement performed multiple times. An object detection unit detects existence of the object based on the sequence of points. An approximation unit outputs an approximation of the sequence of points by applying a curve or a straight line, so that an approximate curve or an approximate straight line is derived. An evaluation unit outputs a result of evaluation of a reliability of the sequence of points. A determination unit determines object information by selecting one of information derived from the sequence of points and information derived from the result of approximation in accordance with the result of evaluation.

    摘要: An onboard forward monitoring system is disclosed in which three television cameras, each supported by a steering mechanism, take picture of a road surface located forward of a vehicle at near distance, a medium distance and a far distance zone to detect white lines which partition a lane on the road surface, thus detecting a vehicle running ahead on the lane which is defined by the white lines. To enable a reliable detection and tracking of the vehicle running ahead in any zone of the road surface even when the road is curved, the individual television cameras are steered so that a vehicle running ahead is positioned at the center of the screen whenever such vehicle is present and so that a center across the width of the lane is positioned at the center of screen when a vehicle running ahead is not detected.
