4. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to derive a predicted path of the at least one object based on the positional information of the at least one object, and to track the position of the at least one object by comparing the positional information of the at least one object obtained in real time with the predicted path.
5. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to ignore a change in an expected path of the at least one object when tracking the position of the at least one object.
6. The vehicle according to claim 1 ,
wherein the at least one object comprises a plurality of objects;
wherein the sensor unit is configured to obtain lane information on which the vehicle travels; and
wherein the controller is configured to track a position of the plurality of the objects based on the lane information and a moving speed of at least one object of the plurality of objects.
7. A control method of a vehicle comprising:
acquiring positional information of at least one object located in a vicinity of the vehicle;
selecting one tracking filter of a plurality of tracking filters based on a correspondence relationship between a plurality of sensor modules and the at least one object; and

wherein the at least one object comprises a plurality of objects;
wherein selecting the one tracking filter comprises tracking a position of one object using the tracking filter included in a first tracking filter when the plurality of sensor modules correspond to the one object; and
wherein the method further comprises determining a reliability of each of the plurality of sensor modules based on the position of the at least one object and tracking the position of the at least one object based on providing a weight factor to the positional information of the at least one object obtained by each of the plurality of sensor modules based on the reliability.
8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein selecting the one tracking filter comprises tracking the position of the at least one object using the positional information of the at least one object and the selected tracking filter when one of the sensor modules of the plurality of sensor modules corresponds to the at least one object.
9. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the at least one object comprises a plurality of objects and wherein selecting the one tracking filter comprises tracking the position of one object using a second tracking filter when one of the plurality of sensor modules corresponds to the plurality of the objects.
10. The method according to claim 7 , further comprising deriving a predicted path of the at least one object based on the positional information of the at least one object and tracking the position of the at least one object by comparing the positional information of the at least one object obtained in real time with the predicted path.
