First Claim
Patent Images
1. An object recognition device, comprising:
- an image-capturing unit mounted to a mobile body;
an image generation unit that converts images captured by the image-capturing unit at different time points to corresponding synthesized images as seen vertically downwards from above;
a detection unit that compares together a plurality of the synthesized images and detects corresponding regions; and
a recognition unit that recognizes an object present upon the road surface from a difference between the corresponding regions.
