A Novel Method for Lateral Vehicle Localization by Omni-Cameras for Car Driving Assistance
نویسندگان
چکیده
A lateral vehicle localization method by omni-image analysis is proposed for car driving assistance. The method estimates analytically the position and orientation of a lateral vehicle by utilizing the geometric properties of a circular-shaped wheel image of the lateral car taken by a single omni-camera with a hyperboloidal-shaped mirror. Analytical solutions are made possible for fast computation by a special arrangement of affixing the omni-camera on the frontal car bumper at the height of the wheel. Experimental results showing good data estimation precision are included to prove the feasibility of the proposed method.
