Abstract
A white line recognition device includes a storage medium storing computer-readable instructions and a processor connected to the storage medium, the processor executing the computer-readable instructions to recognize a linear feature located in an image captured by a monocular camera as a contour of a white line drawn on a road surface, and detect a linear object located at a distance from the road surface based on an output of a distance measurement sensor provided to have at least a detection range in the same direction as the monocular camera. Recognizing the linear feature includes preventing the linear feature from being recognized as the contour of the white line.
