MOVING-OBJECT DETECTION APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE

A moving-object detection apparatus for a vehicle includes first and second detectors and a moving-object detector. The first and the second detectors are configured to scan rear-side and front-side regions of the vehicle to detect first and second targets as reference targets, respectively. The moving-object detector is configured to detect a movement of a moving object on the basis of the detected first and second targets. The moving object is determined with the first and the second targets. The moving-object detector includes an interpolation-region setting unit, an estimation-trajectory setting unit, and a target checking unit. The interpolation-region setting unit is configured to set a first interpolation region and set a second interpolation region. The estimation-trajectory setting unit is configured to set an estimation trajectory on a time axis. The target checking unit is configured to check a matching degree between the estimation trajectory and the second target.
