In an object recognition apparatus mounted on a vehicle, comprising: a plurality of recognizers each adapted to conduct object recognition ahead of the vehicle at intervals; and an object continuity determiner adapted to conduct object continuity determination based on a result of the object recognition conducted by the recognizers; the object continuity determiner determines that, when a first object recognized by any of the object recognizers at time (N) is present at a position within a predetermined area defined by a position of a second object recognized by other of the object recognizers at time (N−1) earlier than the time (N), the first object and the second object are identical to each other to be one object which is kept recognized continuously for a time period ranging from at least the time (N−1) to the time (N).
