Abstract
A collision prediction determination device of a subject vehicle includes: a surrounding area sensor (a camera/radar/lidar) configured to acquire surrounding area information which is information on an object present in a first monitor area including an area ahead of the subject vehicle in a traveling direction thereof; a proximity sensor (a sonar/pressure tube sensor) configured to acquire proximity information on proximity of the subject vehicle including information on a contact thereof with an object present in a second monitor area which is an area in a proximity of the subject vehicle; an interspace sensor (a sonar) configured to acquire interspace information which is information on an interspace between an in-vehicle component (a bulkhead/bumper beam) and a bumper member (a front bumper) disposed on the subject vehicle; and a collision prediction determination part configured to predict and determine a state of a collision of the subject vehicle with a vulnerable road user, including whether or not the collision has occurred, based on the surrounding area information, the interspace information, and the proximity information.
