Abstract
An object detection device includes an acquisition module and a detection module. The acquisition module acquires a detection distance indicating a distance from a transmission/reception unit mounted on a vehicle to an object and a reception intensity indicating an intensity of a reflected wave received by the transmission/reception unit. The detection distance is detected based on results of transmission of a transmission wave by the transmission/reception unit and reception of the reflected wave from the object by the transmission/reception unit. The detection module detects a detection target among objects including the object based on the reception intensity exceeding an intensity threshold. The detection module increases the intensity threshold when the detection distance is a distance threshold or less and the detection target is detected.
