Classification: CPC G  B | IPC B  G

Claim 8:
9. An externality recognition sensor to be mounted in a vehicle, comprising:
a sensing unit that acquires pre-processing externality information through sensing operation;
a reception unit that acquires a processing condition which is created on the basis of a position of the vehicle, traveling direction of the vehicle, and map information and in which information identifying an area on the map is associated with processing priority of the pre-processing externality information acquired by the externality recognition sensor; and
a processing object determination unit that, on the basis of the pre-processing externality information and the processing condition, creates externality information having a smaller amount of information than the pre-processing externality information,
wherein the externality information includes probability indicating a degree of correctness, and
the condition calculation unit corrects the processing condition according to the probability.
