  • Patent number: 12293588
    Abstract: A processor of an object detection device is configured to search for a pair of coordinates associated with a disparity approximately equal to a target disparity satisfying a predetermined condition in a second direction of a disparity map, update a first pair of coordinates to the found pair of coordinates, and calculate a height of an object corresponding to the target disparity on the basis of the first pair of coordinates. In the disparity map, a disparity acquired from a captured image is associated with a pair of two-dimensional coordinates formed by a first direction and the second direction intersecting the first direction. When a second pair of coordinates associated with a disparity approximately equal to the target disparity is present within a predetermined interval from the first pair of coordinates, the processor is configured to update the first pair of coordinates to the second pair of coordinates.
