Abstract
An object detection device acquires a plurality of images captured by a camera mounted in a moving body and acquires movement information of the camera. The object detection device extracts an edge from a first image among the acquired images. The object detection device calculates a plurality of candidate points corresponding to the edge in a second image, based on the movement information and calculates candidate points corresponding to a plurality of heights as height candidates of the edge. The object detection device calculates a correlation index value between the edge and each of the plurality of candidate points and detects the candidate point with the largest correlation as a correspondence point of the edge. The object detection device detects an object at a position of the edge when the correlation index value of the detected correspondence point is equal to or smaller than a predetermined threshold.
