1. A vehicle control device comprising:
- an object detection device configured to detect an object in front of an own vehicle;
a processor configured to recognize the object detected by the object detection device as an object requiring the vehicle to be controlled, and perform travel control in accordance with the object requiring the vehicle to be controlled; and
a travel control switch which a driver of the own vehicle manually operates with intention to start or stop the travel control,whereinthe processor is configured, when starting the travel control from when the own vehicle is in a stopped state with the travel control switch in an ON state, to recognize the object requiring the vehicle to be controlled when a determination has been made that the own vehicle has moved from the stopped state to a travel state, andthe travel state is at least one of a state in which the own vehicle has moved a predetermined distance from the stopped state and a state in which a predetermined time has elapsed since the own vehicle started traveling.

Abstract
A vehicle control device includes: a camera unit and a radar device that detect objects in front of the vehicle; and a travel control device that recognizes an object detected by the camera unit and the radar device as an object to be controlled, and performs travel control in accordance with the object to be controlled. The travel control device, when starting travel control from when the own vehicle is in a stopped state, recognizes the object to be controlled when a determination has been made that the own vehicle has moved from a stopped state to a travel state.

3. A vehicle control device comprising:
-
an object detection device configured to detect an object in front of an own vehicle; a travel control switch which a driver of the own vehicle manually operates with intention to start or stop the travel control; a processor configured to start the travel control from a time when the own vehicle is in a stopped state and the travel control switch in is an ON state; recognize the object detected by the object detection device as an object requiring the vehicle to be controlled when the processor has determined that the own vehicle has moved from a stopped state to a travel state; perform travel control of the own vehicle by controlling an acceleration actuator or a deceleration actuator; and output a current control state to a control state notification unit, wherein the travel state is at least one of a state in which the own vehicle has moved a predetermined distance from the stopped state and a state in which a predetermined time has elapsed since the own vehicle started traveling. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5)
