Object e.g. three-dimensional object, detection device for e.g. automobile, has existence probability computation unit for computing respective existence probabilities of object for each sensor based on normal distribution

摘要

The device has an existence probability computation unit for computing respective existence probabilities of an object for each sensor based on a normal distribution, which is centered around an initial value of each sensor. An existence probability correction unit computes respective corrected existence probabilities by correcting the respective existence probability with a detection rate of each sensor. A fusion existence probability computation unit is provided for computing fusion-existence probability of the object by fusing the respective corrected existence probabilities.
