Abstract
A control-target vehicle setting apparatus sets a control-target vehicle that serves as a target for driving assistance control. The control-target vehicle setting apparatus includes a detection signal acquiring unit and a setting control unit. The detection signal acquiring unit acquires a first detection signal that indicates a target by an image and a second detection signal that indicates a target by a reflection point. The setting control unit sets an acquired forward target as the control-target vehicle when the forward target is associated with an integration history that indicates that the forward target has been determined to be a vehicle using the first detection signal and the second detection signal in an integrated manner, even when the forward target is not associated with a movement history that indicates that the forward target has been detected as being a moving object.
