Abstract
A detection device 1 is provided with: a detection unit 121 which detects an object present around a vehicle V; a specification unit 122 which specifies a detection continuation time period in which the detection unit 121 has continuously detected the object; and an information output unit 123 which, on the condition that the detection continuation time period specified by the specification unit 122 has exceeded a determination time period for determining whether or not the object is a detection target object, outputs presence information indicating detection of the target object by the detection unit 121.
Claims7
A detection device comprising:
- a detection unit that detects an object present around a vehicle;
- a specification unit that specifies a detection continuation time period in which the detection unit continuously detects the object;
- and
- an information output unit that outputs presence information indicating that the detection unit detects a detection target object, on condition that the detection continuation time period specified by the specification unit exceeds a predetermined time period.
A detection method comprising the steps, being executed by a processor installed in a vehicle, of:
- detecting an object present around the vehicle;
- specifying a detection continuation time period in which the object is continuously detected;
- and
- outputting information indicating that a detection target object is detected, on condition that the specified detection continuation time period exceeds a predetermined time period.
