PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the reliability of determining the possibility of collision by predicting a zone where an animal exists in the future with higher certainty on the basis of the characteristic of the behavior of the kind of an animal discovered in the surrounding of a vehicle in the case of discovering the animal, in a vehicular collision prevention support technique.SOLUTION: An apparatus performs: discriminating a kind of an animal in the case of detecting an image of the animal in an image of a surrounding of a vehicle; predicting a zone where the animal exists in the future on the basis of a behavior characteristic indication value representing a characteristic of the behavior of the determined kind of the animal; and determining a possibility of the animal colliding with the vehicle on the basis of the result of prediction of the zone where the animal exists in the future. Further, support processing may be executed for a modal collision prevention in a mode different for the determined kind of the animal.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9
【課題】 車両の衝突回避支援技術に於いて、車両の周辺に於いて動物が発見された場合、その動物の種類の行動の特徴に基づいて、より高い確度にて、動物の将来の存在領域を予測し、衝突の可能性の判定の確度を向上すること。【解決手段】 本発明の装置は、車両の周辺の画像に於いて動物の像が検出された場合にその動物の種類を判別し、判定された動物の種類の行動の特徴を表す行動特徴指標値に基づいて将来の動物の存在領域の予測を実行し、その将来の動物の存在領域の予測結果に基づいて車両に対する動物の衝突の可能性を判定する。また、判定された動物の種類によって異なる態様にて、態様衝突回避のための支援処理が実行されてよい。【選択図】 図9
