Abstract
Provided is a parking assist apparatus capable of appropriately guiding a self-vehicle into a parking space even when accuracy of estimation of a corner position of each object located at a position adjacent to the parking space is low. Parking-space information, which is estimated by detecting the corner position of each of the objects sandwiching the parking space while the parking space is being searched, is sequentially corrected by using a reflection-point position on each of objects, which is detected while the self-vehicle is being guided into the parking space. Guiding assistance processing to the parking space is performed by using the corrected parking-space information.
