Abstract: Provided is an object recognition device and an object recognition method that can estimate the size of an object detected by a radar, through a simple configuration. The object recognition device includes: a detection section for radiating an electromagnetic wave to an object in a forward direction of the vehicle and for detecting the object by receiving a reflected wave reflected by the object; a target information calculation section for calculating information containing a moving direction of the detected object as target information, by using a signal received by the detection section; a vehicle information calculation section for calculating information containing a moving direction of the vehicle as vehicle information, by using information obtained from the vehicle; and a processing section for estimating, based on the information indicating the moving direction of the object contained in the target information and the information indicating the moving direction of the vehicle contained in the vehicle information, from which portion of the object detected by the detection section the electromagnetic wave was reflected, and for calculating a presence area in which the object is present relative to the vehicle, in accordance with a result of the estimation.
