Patent attributes
An object recognition device includes: a sensor; a storage device; and a processor configured to detect a first object and a second object around the vehicle, initially set, based on a detection position of the first object, an integration determination distance used to determine that the first object and the second object belong to the same object, estimate a traveling direction of the first object based on the sensor detection information, increase the integration determination distance along the traveling direction, after increasing the integration determination distance along the traveling direction, determine, based on the integration determination distance, whether the first object and the second object belong to the same object, and output the first object and the second object as the same object when it is determined that the first object and the second object belong to the same object.
