Zusammenfassung:	An object detection apparatus includes a camera and an ECU. The camera is mounted to a vehicle and captures an image. The ECU is configured to obtain a depth distance for each pixel area of the image based on the image; extract at least one potential object based on the depth distance; calculate an amount of change over time in the depth distance of the at least one potential object; and detect an object around the vehicle from among the at least one potential object using the amount of change over time. When a first potential object and a second potential object that are adjacent in the image are extracted, and a second amount of change over time is twice a first amount of change over time, the second potential object is determined to be the same object as the first potential object.
