An object detection apparatus includes a light emission unit including a light source to emit light, a light receiving unit including a light detector to receive light reflected from an object, a signal processing unit including a signal detector to be input with an output signal of the light detector or a signal acquired by processing the output signal of the light detector, and a control unit to set at least one area in a light emission region of the light emission unit as a target area, and to set at least one of a light emission condition of the light emission unit and a processing condition of the signal processing unit such that the at least one of the light emission condition and the processing condition are different between when the light is emitted to the target area and when the light is emitted to a background area.
