PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a recognition device capable of properly recognizing a travel range on which a vehicle travels.SOLUTION: A recognition device 20 is mounted on a vehicle for recognizing a travel range on which the vehicle travels. The recognition device includes: an edge detection unit 23 that detects an edge line which defines one edge in a lateral direction perpendicular to a travelling direction of the vehicle in the travel range; an object detection unit 22 that detects the position of a moving body which positions in a forward position in the travelling direction of the vehicle; and a correction unit 24 that, when the moving body positions between the vehicle and the edge line in a lateral direction, corrects the position of the edge line detected by the edge detection unit 23 in the lateral direction between the vehicle and the moving body or within the width of the moving body.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】車両が走行する走行範囲を適切に認識することが可能な認識装置を提供する。【解決手段】車両に搭載され、その車両が走行する走行範囲を認識する認識装置２０であって、走行範囲における、車両の進行方向に直交する横方向の一方の端を規定する端部線を検出する端部検出部２３と、車両の進行方向前方に存在する移動体の位置を検出する物体検出部２２と、移動体が、横方向おいて車両と端部線との間に位置する場合に、端部検出部２３が検出した端部線の横方向の位置を、車両と移動体との間、又は、移動体の幅内に補正する補正部２４と、を備える。【選択図】 図１
