A mobile object control device acquires an image obtained by imaging an outside space of a mobile object, determines whether the mobile object is in a merging lane closer to a merged lane between two merging lanes, determines whether another mobile object is in a merging lane farther from the merged lane between the merging lanes in front of the mobile object when it is determined that the mobile object is in the closer merging lane, sets one or more merging position candidates at which merging of the mobile object to the merged lane is completed and which are positions between mobile objects in the merged lane, and selects a merging position at which the merging of the mobile object to the merged lane is completed from the one or more merging position candidates.

Mobile object control device, mobile object control method, and storage medium

A moving object control device includes a storage device storing a program and a hardware processor. The hardware processor executes the program stored in the storage device to acquire an image by imaging a space outside of a moving object, determine whether or not the moving object is traveling in a merging lane on the basis of the image, detect a first reference object and a second reference object according to image processing when it is determined that the moving object is traveling in the merging lane, virtually set a plurality of third reference objects extending parallel to the first reference object at a first prescribed width in a hypothetical plane virtually viewed from above, and derive information about a location where the merging lane disappears on the basis of at least a first intersection between the second reference object and the plurality of third reference objects.

Moving object control device, moving object control method, and storage medium

A vehicle control device that can appropriately recognize a direction of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle control device includes: an image acquirer configured to acquire an image obtained by imaging a space outside of a vehicle; an object detector configured to detect, through image processing, a plurality of types of objects including a road structure and a moving object shown in the image; a reference line setter configured to select one type of object from the plurality of types of objects and to set a reference line based on a direction of the selected type of object; and a vehicle direction estimator configured to estimate an angle which is formed by the reference line and a traveling direction line of the vehicle as a direction of the vehicle relative to a lane in which the vehicle is traveling or is scheduled to travel.

Vehicle control device, vehicle control method, and storage medium

A vehicle control device includes: a recognizer configured to recognize a surrounding situation of a vehicle; and an action controller configured to control an action of the vehicle. The action controller is configured to specify a first vehicle in front of a region which the vehicle is scheduled to enter and a second vehicle behind the region according to inter-vehicle distances between a plurality of vehicles located in front of or on the side of the vehicle in a lane of a route changing destination recognized by the recognizer when a route of the vehicle is changed to a side. The action controller is configured to cause the vehicle to move to a vicinity of the specified first and second vehicles in a lane in which the vehicle is traveling.

A vehicle control device includes: a recognizer configured to recognize a surrounding situation of a vehicle; and an action controller configured to control an action of the vehicle. The action controller determines a range in which the vehicle is located relative to a first vehicle located on a lateral side of the vehicle recognized by the recognizer and a second vehicle located on a side behind the first vehicle in a longitudinal direction of a road by the recognizer based on a distance between the first and second vehicles when a course of the vehicle is changed to the lateral side.
