Abstract
An apparatus and method for detecting a short-range object, and a vehicle with such a detecting apparatus are provided. The apparatus includes a light transmitter that is configured to emit brightness-modulated light to an object and a light receiver that is configured to acquire a plurality of reflected image frames reflected from the object. A processor is then configured to extract a short-range object by analyzing brightness change of at least one of the plurality of reflected image frames.
