Abstract
A parking assistance device includes an obstacle detection unit configured to detect an obstacle around a vehicle, a boundary detection unit configured to detect a boundary of a parking section, and a target position determination unit configured to determine a target position of a movement route of the vehicle based on the detected boundary. The target position determination unit recognizes, as a wheel stopper, the obstacle detected in a detection area that is set at a position in the parking section on a back side of an entrance and exit of the parking section based on the detected boundary, regardless of a height of the obstacle.
