Abstract: An object of the present invention is to further improve the detection accuracy of a lateral position of a target in an object detecting apparatus for detecting an object by using a radar and a monocular image sensor. In the present invention, a target corresponding to a target recognized by the radar is extracted and a right edge and a left edge of the target are acquired from an image picked up by the monocular image sensor. Further, locus approximation lines, which are straight lines or predetermined curved lines for approximating loci of the right edge and the left edge, are derived for the both edges. The edge, which has a larger number of edges existing on the locus approximation line, is selected as a true edge of the target from the right edge and the left edge. The lateral position of the target is derived on the basis of the position of the selected edge.
