TRAVEL PATH RECOGNITION DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a travel path recognition device appropriately recognizing a travel path by highly accurately detecting a road boundary being present at a distant area from a vehicle.SOLUTION: The travel path recognition device includes: a template creation section 23 for clipping an image of a road boundary B from a photographed image of an adjacent area As of a vehicle 1 and creating a template T; a road boundary detecting section 24 that changes a reduction scale of the template T according to a distance from the vehicle 1 to a distance area Ab of the vehicle 1 by a matching process of the template T; and a travel path recognition section 25 for recognizing a forward travel path of the vehicle 1 on the basis of the detection result of the road boundary B.
