<p>A characteristic value temporary setting section (12) temporarily sets a characteristic value of an object depending on the type of the object judged by a type judging section (11). A characteristic value correcting section (14) corrects the temporarily set characteristic value of the object according to the behavior of the object detected by a behavior detecting section (13). A type setting section (15) sets the type of object as one of a motorcycle, a bicycle, and a pedestrian according to the corrected characteristic value of the object. A behavior predicting section (16) predicts the behavior of the object on the basis of the corrected characteristic value and the set type of the object. Therefore, the behavior is predicted on the basis of the characteristic value corrected according to the actual behavior and the type of the object, and consequently, the accuracy of the behavior prediction is improved.</p> |
