Abstract
The roadside object detection device, roadside object detection method, and roadside object detection system according to the present invention make it possible to accurately detect roadside objects by: determining a first feature value regarding positional relationship between a host vehicle and a roadside object candidate and a second feature value regarding a height of the roadside object candidate, based on external environment information acquired by an external environment recognition unit; determining a height-related threshold for identifying the roadside object candidate as a roadside object, based on the first feature value; and identifying the roadside object candidate as a roadside object when the second feature value exceeds the threshold.
