    摘要: An object recognition device recognizes an object around the own vehicle by using a radar device and an imaging device. The object recognition apparatus includes: information combining unit that generates combined target information by combining radar-based target information with image-based target information if the object is being detected by the radar device and the imaging device, the radar-based target information being information on an object detected by the radar device, the image-based target information being information on an object detected by the imaging device; and an identical object determining unit that determines that an object detected by the imaging device is identical with an object detected by the radar device, based on time-dependent change of the combined target information.

    摘要: An object recognition apparatus groups reflection points detected by a radar device, and recognizes an object around the own vehicle, based on a radar-based target detected using the grouped plurality of reflection points and an image-based target detected using an image captured by an image capturing device. The object recognition apparatus includes a reflection point acquiring unit that acquires reflection point information related to the grouped plurality of reflection points, and an object determining unit that determines that a plurality of objects have been detected as a single object by the radar device, based on the reflection point information acquired by the reflection point acquiring unit and the information on the image-based target, if the image-based target detected by the imaging device includes an image-only target not detected by the radar device.

    摘要: A demarcation line recognition apparatus (10) is applied to a vehicle in which an imaging apparatus (21) that captures an image of an area ahead of the vehicle is mounted. The demarcation line recognition apparatus (10) includes: a demarcation line recognizing unit (11) that recognizes a traveling demarcation line that demarcates a traveling lane of the vehicle based on an image acquired by the imaging apparatus (21); and a demarcation line estimating unit (12) that estimates a shape of the traveling demarcation line in a range that cannot be recognized by the demarcation line recognizing unit (11), based on the traveling demarcation line recognized by the demarcation line recognizing unit (11). The demarcation line recognition apparatus (10) determines a reliability level of the traveling demarcation line recognized by the demarcation line recognizing unit (11) and invalidates the estimation of the shape of the traveling demarcation line by the demarcation line estimating unit (12) based on the determination result.
