Abstract

An operation unit calculates a position of an obstacle with respect to a vehicle using a first distance and a second distance. The first distance is a distance to the obstacle measured by a first ultrasonic sensor (ultrasonic sensor) having a first microphone (microphone) at a first timing. The second distance is a distance to the obstacle measured by a second ultrasonic sensor (ultrasonic sensor) having a second microphone (microphone) at a second timing which is later than the first timing.
