Abstract
A vehicle external environment imaging apparatus includes imaging devices and a controller. The imaging devices are disposed on a vehicle to perform imaging of a vehicle external environment. The controller generates information regarding a distance or a direction of a vehicle-external imaging target with imaging images of the imaging devices. At least two imaging devices are disposed on the vehicle to be able to perform duplicated imaging of a common imaging region. The controller generates, on the basis of a distance and a direction in an imaging image obtained by a first one of the at least two imaging devices, correction information regarding a distance, a direction or both of the vehicle-external imaging target based on an imaging position which is to be used in a monocular process on an imaging image of at least one the at least two imaging devices that is different from the first one.
