Abstract

An apparatus and a method are capable of accurately deciding a maneuver of a surrounding vehicle. The apparatus includes a first surrounding vehicle information detector configured to obtain first surrounding vehicle information for a surrounding vehicle of a vehicle by using a front radar device. The apparatus further includes a second surrounding vehicle information detector configured to obtain second surrounding vehicle information for the surrounding vehicle by using a corner radar device. The apparatus also includes a processor configured to decide a motion of the surrounding vehicle by using the first surrounding vehicle information and the second surrounding vehicle information. The processor is also configured to decide a maneuver of the surrounding vehicle by using maneuver decision logic derived by a mechanical training technique. The processor is further configured to decide a final maneuver of the surrounding vehicle by using the two decision results.
