摘要： A collision determination device determines the possibility of collision between a host vehicle and the other object on the basis of a shortest arrival time calculated by a shortest arrival time calculation unit and a passage time at each point of the host vehicle acquired by a vehicle route candidate acquisition unit. In this way, even if a locus to be taken by the other object is not generated, the shortest arrival time at which the other object can arrive at each point of the route candidate of the host vehicle with a predetermined first displacement is calculated, thereby determining the possibility of collision between the host vehicle and the other object. Therefore, it is possible to reduce a computational load for determining collision and to accurately determine collision between the host vehicle and the other object.

摘要： Disclosed is a vehicular environment estimation device capable of accurately estimating a travel environment around own vehicle on the basis of a predicted route of a mobile object or the like, which is moving in a blind area. A vehicular environment estimation device that is mounted in the own vehicle detects a behavior of another vehicle in the vicinity of the own vehicle, and estimates a travel environment, which affects the traveling of another vehicle, on the basis of the behavior of another vehicle. For example, the presence of another vehicle, which is traveling in a blind area, is estimated on the basis of the behavior of another vehicle. Therefore, it is possible to estimate a vehicle travel environment that cannot be recognized by the own vehicle but can be recognized by another vehicle in the vicinity of the own vehicle.

摘要： An object of the present invention is to provide a driving assistance device which it is easy to instinctively manipulate without causing a driver to feel a sense of discomfort. According to the driving assistance device according to the present invention, when it is instructed to perform automated driving using an automated driving switch and a destination has been set using a destination setting unit, an ECU generates a route for automated driving to the destination and starts the automated driving. When a destination has not been set using the destination setting unit and it is detected that the driver has travel continuation intention by a travel intention detection unit, the ECU generates a route for automated driving along the road and starts the automated driving. When a destination has not been set using the destination setting unit and it is detected that the driver does not have the travel continuation intention by the travel intention detection unit, the ECU generates a route for automated stopping and starts the automated driving. Therefore, since the automated driving automatically starts based on the intention of the driver, the driving assistance device is easy to instinctively manipulate without causing the driver to feel a sense of discomfort.

摘要： A method, an apparatus, and a program of predicting an obstacle course, capable of appropriately predicting a course of an obstacle even under a complicated traffic environment, are provided. For this purpose, the course, which the obstacle may take, is predicted based on the position and the internal state of the obstacle, and at the time of the prediction, a plurality of courses are probabilistically predicted for at least one obstacle. When there are a plurality of obstacles, the course in which different obstacles interfere with each other is obtained from the predicted courses, which a plurality of obstacles may take, and the predictive probability of the course for which the probabilistic prediction is performed from the courses in which they interfere with each other is lowered. Probability of realizing each of a plurality of courses including the course of which predicted probability is lowered is calculated.
