Abstract

An external environment recognition device includes: a plurality of external environment recognition sensors each having an information detection unit that detects information of an object outside a vehicle, the plurality of external environment recognition sensors being arranged such that a detection range of the information detection unit includes an overlapping region where at least part of the detection range of the information detection unit overlaps with at least part of the detection range of another one of the information detection units; and a synchronous processing unit that extracts identical objects in the overlapping region from detection results of the external environment recognition sensors, and performs synchronous processing to synchronize the plurality of external environment recognition sensors if there is a deviation in position between the identical objects in the overlapping region.
