Abstract
A zero point estimation device is configured to perform a first acquisition process, a second acquisition process, and a zero point estimation process. The first acquisition process is a process of acquiring a plurality of first detection values of a first sensor sampled at different timings from each other while a vehicle is traveling with a change in a direction of travel. The second acquisition process is a process of acquiring a plurality of second detection values of a second sensor sampled in synchronization with the sampling timings of the first detection values to be acquired by the first acquisition process. The zero point estimation process is a process of estimating a zero point of the second sensor by using, as inputs, the plurality of first detection values acquired by the first acquisition process and the plurality of second detection values acquired by the second acquisition process.
