OBSTACLE DETECTION APPARATUS

摘要

An obstacle detection apparatus detects an obstacle to a vehicle by a sensor section including a transmitter which transmits a wave to a predetermined detection area, and a receiver which receives an echo of the wave reflected by the obstacle. The obstacle detection apparatus measures a distance to the obstacle from the output of the sensor section. A detection-distance change circuit changes predetermined detection distances in the maximum detection distance. Alarm means gives an alarm step by step in accordance with the detection distances.
