An object detecting apparatus for detecting an object by a plurality of radars, with improved accuracy of identity determination and acquisition of position information in fusion of detection results. The object detecting apparatus is arranged to obtain a moving path of a detected point by a radar and to perform pairing as follows: if a detected point by a radar exists in a region based on the moving path and if a relative velocity thereof is matched with that of the detected point of interest, the detected point is paired as a corresponding detected point.
