Abstract:
1. An object detection apparatus, comprising: a first radar configured to measure first positional information regarding a first object existing in a first scan range on the basis of first reflected wave of first wave radiated onto the first scan range including a first region; a second radar configured to measure second positional information regarding a second object existing in a second scan range on the basis of second reflected wave of second wave radiated onto the second scan range including the first region and a second region, which is located outside the first scan range, the second wave being radiated in such a way as to scan the first region in a direction opposite a direction in which the first radar radiates the first wave at a timing at which the first radar scans the first region; and a processor configured to: determine, when a first position relating to the first positional information and a second position relating to the second positional information are included in the first region, whether the first position and the second position match, and detect a third object existing in the first scan region when the first position and the second position match.
