Abstract

An object detector includes: a transmission and reception unit that transmits a transmission wave and receives a reflection wave from an object; an acquisition unit that detects the reflection wave having a signal level above a threshold to acquire distance information indicating a distance from the transmission and reception unit to the object; a sort processing unit that sets a priority of the distance information to be higher as a difference between a signal level corresponding to the distance information and the threshold is larger when a plurality of pieces of the distance information are acquired in a predetermined period; and an output control unit that outputs the plurality of pieces of the distance information in descending order of the priority.
