  • Publication number: 20190236958
    Abstract: An object tracking device tracks objects in a time series using an object detection sensor for detecting objects around a host vehicle. When a plurality of objects are detected, the object tracking device sorts the objects into groups in accordance with a degree of influence of the positions of the objects on the movement of the host vehicle. The object tracking device tracks each of the groups as a single object in a time series.

  • Patent number: 10339394
    Abstract: A step detection device detects the distance and the direction to a road surface around a vehicle, using a distance sensor mounted on the vehicle, and sets a first step determination position and a second step determination position on the road surface. Then, the step detection device calculates the height changes of the road surfaces at the first step determination position and the second step determination position based on the distance and the direction to the road surface, and detects a step on the road surface based on one of the step determination positions, the gradient of the height change of the road surface at the one being larger.

  • Patent number: 10269127
    Abstract: Multiple objects detected by multiple sensors are subjected to a determination as to whether or not the objects are identical to each other. If there is an object in the multiple objects, of which object position becomes undetectable after the point when the multiple objects detected by the multiple sensors are determined to be the identical object, a determination is made as to whether or not the continuously detected object is an object identical to the object in a previous processing based on a predicted range calculated from a previously detected object position of the object becoming undetectable, and on a range of presence estimated from an object position of the continuously detected object.
