To provide a vehicle weight estimation device which can estimate a vehicle weight of a peripheral vehicle traveling in the periphery of an own vehicle by means of plural techniques.SOLUTION: A vehicle weight estimation device for estimating a vehicle weight of a peripheral vehicle existing in the periphery of an own vehicle estimates the vehicle width and vehicle height of the peripheral vehicle on the basis of image data of a camera mounted on a vehicle, determines a vehicle division of the peripheral vehicle on the basis of the estimated vehicle width, determines whether or not the estimated vehicle height is within a prescribed range set according to the determined vehicle division, and estimates the vehicle weight of the peripheral vehicle by using different estimation techniques according to the determination result of the vehicle division and the determination result on whether or not the vehicle height is within the prescribed range according to the vehicle division.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10
【課題】自車両の周囲を走行する周囲車両の車両重量を複数の手法で推定可能な車両重量推定装置を提供する。【解決手段】自車両の周囲に存在する周囲車両の車両重量を推定する車両重量推定装置は、車両に搭載されたカメラの画像データに基づいて周囲車両の車両幅及び車両高さを推定し、推定した車両幅に基づいて周囲車両の車両区分を判定し、推定した車両高さが、判定された車両区分に応じて設定された所定範囲内であるか否かを判定し、車両区分の判定結果、及び、車両高さが車両区分に応じた所定範囲内か否かの判定結果に応じて異なる推定手法を用いて周囲車両の車両重量を推定する。【選択図】図10
