Abstract
An object detection device includes a condition judgment unit and a noise processing unit. The condition judgment unit judges whether an execution condition for starting an object detection operation is satisfied. The noise processing unit performs a noise-related notification corresponding to an occurrence of limitation of an object detection function due to a high noise state when the condition judgment unit judges that the execution condition is satisfied and when the high noise state is established, the high noise state being a state in which a reception state of extraneous noise, different from the reflected wave received by the plurality of object detection sensors, exceeds a predetermined judgment criterion. The object detection device is configured to perform the noise-related notification more easily when a driving mode of the own vehicle is a backward driving mode than when the driving mode is a forward driving mode.
