Target recognition apparatus, target recognition method, and vehicle control system

摘要

In a target recognition apparatus that recognizes a target in a periphery of an own vehicle, a radar target acquiring unit acquires, as a radar target, the target that is detected by transmission and reception of radar waves. An image target acquiring unit acquires, as an image target, the target that is included in a captured image captured by an imaging apparatus. A target recognizing unit recognizes, as a first target, one of a plurality of radar targets included in a predetermined area relative to the image target and recognizes, as a second target, at least one of the plurality of radar targets other than the first target. A sameness determining unit determines whether the first target and the second target are the same object.
