    摘要: A three-dimensional object detection device has an image capturing unit, a three-dimensional object detection unit, a host vehicle speed detection unit, a light source detection unit and a controller. The image capturing unit captures images rearward of a vehicle. The three-dimensional object detection unit detects a presence of a three-dimensional object in a detection area, based on the captured images. The host vehicle speed detection unit detects a vehicle traveling speed. The light source detection unit detects a headlight light source of a headlight of another vehicle. The controller compares the traveling speeds of the object and the vehicle upon not detecting the headlight light source, and suppresses detection of the object upon determining one of the object traveling speed being equal to or less than the vehicle traveling speed, and a difference between the object and vehicle traveling speeds being less than a predetermined value.

    摘要: A total certainty factor indicating a total degree of certainty of the parking frame certainty degree and the parking frame entering certainty degree is calculated based on a parking frame certainty degree indicating the degree of certainty that a parking frame is present in a travel direction of a vehicle, and a parking frame entering certainty degree indicating the degree of certainty that the vehicle enters the parking frame. When the total certainty factor is low, acceleration of the vehicle controlled according to an operation amount of an accelerator pedal for instructing a driving force by operation of a driver is suppressed with a low suppression degree, as compared with a case where the total certainty factor is high. Further, the acceleration of the vehicle is suppressed at a low suppression degree according to the travel direction of the vehicle.

    摘要: A camera device includes image capturing device, a lens cleaning device, an adhesion state assessment unit and a controller. The image capturing device is installed on a vehicle and has a lens for forming an image of the vehicle surroundings. The lens cleaning device cleans the lens by spraying a cleaning fluid on the lens in accordance with a predetermined lens cleaning step, in which at least a supply time for supplying cleaning fluid to the lens surface is predetermined. The adhesion state assessment unit is programmed to assess an adhesion state of contamination from a distribution of pixels corresponding to foreign matter adhered to the lens based on a captured image. The controller is programmed to extend the time until a time to start supplying the cleaning fluid in the lens cleaning step as the number of pixels corresponding to foreign matter adhered to the lens increases.

    摘要: A three-dimensional object detection device has an image capturing unit, detection area setting unit, a three-dimensional object detection unit and a lens state assessment unit. The image capturing unit has a lens for capturing images behind a vehicle. The detection area setting unit sets a detection area behind the vehicle. The three-dimensional object detection unit detects a three-dimensional object that is present in the detection area based on the acquired images. The lens state assessment unit detects if the lens is in a wet state. When a determination is made by that the lens is in a wet state, the detection area setting unit changes a position of the detection area from a first detection area, which is first set as the detection area to a second detection area, in which a display area for a driving lane marker on a driving lane side of the vehicle is removed.

    摘要: A three-dimensional object detection device has a camera, a three-dimensional object detection unit, a lens cleaning device, a lens state assessment unit and a controller. The camera has a lens for forming an image of an area rearward of a vehicle. The three-dimensional object detection unit detects a three-dimensional object rearward of the vehicle based on the captured images. The lens cleaning device sprays cleaning fluid to clean the lens of the camera. The lens state assessment unit accesses whether the lens is in a predetermined state subject to control based on a timing at which cleaning fluid is sprayed on the lens. The controller suppresses detection of the three-dimensional object by retaining detection or assessment results for a predetermined length of time that were obtained immediately before the lens was assessed to be in the state subject to control, upon assessment that the lens state is subject to control.

    摘要: A three-dimensional object detection has an image capturing device, a three-dimensional object detection unit, a high-luminance area assessment unit and a controller. The image capturing device captures images of an area including a right-side detection area or a left-side detection area rearward of a vehicle. The three-dimensional object detection unit detects a three-dimensional object based on the images acquired by the image capturing device. The high-luminance area assessment unit accesses a first detection area including a high-luminance area complying with a predetermined reference on either the right-side detection area or the left-side detection area. The controller suppresses detection of the three-dimensional object based on image information of the first detection area that was detected, and maintains or promotes detection of the three-dimensional object based on image information of a second detection area other than the first detection area within the right-side detection area or the left-side detection area.

    摘要: A three-dimensional object detection device includes an image capturing unit, an image conversion unit, a three-dimensional object detection unit, a three-dimensional object assessment unit and a control unit. The image conversion unit converts images obtained by the image capturing unit to create bird's-eye view images. The three-dimensional object detection unit detects a presence of a three-dimensional object within a detection area based on differential waveform information or edge information. The stationary three-dimensional object assessment unit assesses whether the detected three-dimensional object is a shadow of a tree along a road traveled by the host vehicle. The three-dimensional object assessment unit assesses whether the three-dimensional object detected is a vehicle within the detection area. The control unit suppresses the assessment that the three-dimensional object is a vehicle when the detected three-dimensional object was determined to be a shadow of a tree along the road traveled by the host vehicle.

    摘要: A three-dimensional object detection device includes an image capturing unit, an image conversion unit, a three-dimensional object detection unit, a three-dimensional object assessment unit and a control unit. The image conversion unit converts a viewpoint of the images obtained by the image capturing unit to create bird's-eye view images. The three-dimensional object detection unit detects a presence of a three-dimensional object within the predetermined detection area by vehicle width direction detection processing. The three-dimensional object assessment unit assesses whether the three-dimensional object detected is another vehicle that is present within the predetermined detection area. The control unit suppresses assessment by the three-dimensional object assessment unit that the three-dimensional object is a vehicle when a specified detection position has moved rearward within the detection area in a host vehicle progress direction and arrived at a predetermined position in the host vehicle progress direction within the detection area.

    摘要: A three-dimensional object detection device includes an image capturing unit, an image conversion unit, a three-dimensional object detection unit, a light source detection unit a degree-of-certainty assessment unit and a control unit. The degree-of-certainty assessment unit assesses a degree of certainty that a light source is headlights of another vehicle in two lanes over. The control unit sets a threshold value so that the three-dimensional object is more difficult to detect in a forward area of a line connecting the light source and the image capturing unit in the detection frame when the degree of certainty is at a predetermined value or higher, and sets a threshold value so that the three-dimensional object is more difficult to detect in progression from a center side toward front or rear ends of the detection frame when the degree of certainty is less than a predetermined value.
