Abstract
The information processing device includes a plurality of light transmission/reception units and an information processing unit. Each of the light transmission/reception unit includes an emission unit which emits a light, a scanning unit which scans the light emitted by the emission unit, and a light receiving unit which receives the light reflected by an object. The information processing unit obtains at least one of a distance to the object and an angle of the object based on light receiving results of the light receiving units. Each of the scanning units is arranged at a position where there is a direction in which the light scanned by the scanning unit is blocked by a vehicle itself, and scans the light omnidirectionally in a horizontal direction in a manner shared by the scanning units.
