Abstract

A disembarkation action determination device includes: an upper body movement detection section configured to detect for a first state in which an upper body of an occupant sitting on a vehicle seat has been lifted upright, based on a signal from a first sensor provided inside a vehicle cabin; a hand position detection section configured to detect for a second state in which a hand of the occupant sitting on the vehicle seat is in proximity to or contacting a door inside handle, based on a signal either from the first sensor or from a second sensor separate from the first sensor; and a disembarkation action determination section configured to determine that the occupant has initiated a disembarkation action in cases in which the first state has been detected by the upper body movement detection section and the second state has been detected by the hand position detection section.
