ABSTRACT:
There is provided an object recognizing apparatus capable of recognizing a shape of an object in a stable manner with a small amount of calculation, even when data of non-target object is mixedly contained.The object recognizing apparatus includes an object detecting section, a shape model setting section3, a conformance degree calculating section4and a profile shape determining section5. The shape model setting section3extract arbitrarily samples of a group of samples detected by the object detecting section1and constituting surface shape information and then sets shape models. The conformance degree calculating section4calculates the conformance degree of each shape model. The setting of the shape model and calculation of conformance degree are effected up to a predetermined maximum number of times. The profile shape determining section5is configured such that if a conformance degree exceeding a first reference value exists, then, the shape model having this conformance degree exceeding the first reference value is determined at once as the profile shape.
