Abstract: An object detection apparatus that scans a detection range to detect an object is provided. The object detection apparatus includes a light emission unit that emits a pulse detection light; and a light reception unit having a plurality of light reception pixel groups, in which the plurality of light reception pixel groups include a reflected light reception pixel group that receives, at each scanning unit in a scanning operation, reflected light in response to an emission of the pulse detection light, and one or more visible light reception pixel groups corresponding to visible light components, receiving a visible light at each scanning unit in a scanning operation.

Abstract: An automatic traveling control apparatus includes an automatic traveling control unit, a function determining unit, a first notifying unit, an abnormality detecting unit, and a second notifying unit. The automatic traveling control unit makes an own vehicle automatically travel along a route to a destination. The function determining unit determines whether or not the state of a function used for automatic traveling is normal. The first notifying unit gives notification of the state of the function determined by the function determining unit. The abnormality detecting unit detects an abnormality in the notification of the state of the function by the first notifying unit. The second notifying unit gives a characteristic notification set in advance, when the abnormality detecting unit detects an abnormality in the notification of the state of the function by the first notifying unit and the function determining unit determines that the state of the function is normal.
