Abstract
A vehicle detection apparatus according to an embodiment comprises a controller detecting a vehicle from an image obtained by photographing the vehicle. The controller extracts a plurality of line-segment components indicating a boundary between a specific region of the vehicle and a vehicle body and included in the image. The controller measures a position of the vehicle based on coordinate information between the extracted line-segment components and photographing position information of the image.
