ABSTRACT:
A vehicular control object determination system includes: a radar device for detecting an object that is present in the direction of travel of a vehicle; a travel locus estimator for estimating a future travel locus of the vehicle; and a control object determiner for determining a control object based on a detection result obtained by the radar device, a travel locus estimated by the travel locus estimator. The control object determiner modifies the control object determination conditions when the estimated travel locus is not a straight line and the detected relative sideways speed is less than the threshold value, and when the estimated travel locus is a straight line and the detected relative sideways speed is equal to or greater than the threshold value, thereby preventing erroneous identification of a preceding vehicle traveling on an adjacent lane as a control object.
