OBJECT RECOGNITION PROCESSING APPARATUS, OBJECT RECOGNITION PROCESSING METHOD, AND AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An object recognition processing apparatus for detecting objects existing around a vehicle by using a plurality of object detection units, and receiving detection information of the objects from the respective object detection units, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor for executing a program; and
a storage device in which the program is stored,the processor executing the program to perform the operations of;
fusing detection information signals of the objects detected by the plurality of object detection units to output object fusion signals;
selecting, for a combination of object fusion signals, candidates of the object fusion signals to be combined;
determining whether or not a combination of the selected object fusion signals is a combination of object fusion signals of the same object; and
recognizing the objects existing around the vehicle on the basis of a result of the determination.

Abstract
An object recognition processing apparatus includes: an object fusion processing unit 6 for fusing detection information signals of objects existing around a vehicle, which are detected by a plurality of object detection units to output object fusion signals; a same object fusion result combination candidate selection processing unit for selecting, for a combination of object fusion signals, candidates of the object fusion signals to be combined; a same object fusion result combination determination processing unit for determining whether or not a combination of the selected object fusion signals is a combination of object fusion signals of the same object; and a same object fusion combination integration processing unit for recognizing the objects existing around the vehicle on the basis of a result of the determination.
