چکیده

Driving an automobile autonomously on rural roads requires knowledge about the geometry of the road. Furthermore, knowledge about the meaning of each lane of the road is needed in order to decide which lane should be taken and if the vehicle can do a lane change. This paper addresses the problem of extracting additional information about lanes. The information is extracted from the types of road-markings. The type of lane border markings is estimated in order to find out if a lane change is allowed. Arrows, which are painted on the road, are extracted and classified in order to determine the meaning of a lane such as a turn off lane.

Enhancing Skid Resistance of Two-Component Road Marking Paint using Mineral and Recycled Materials

Low skid resistance of road marking paint is one of the major issues in the safety of vehicle drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians when traveling on the city streets. Among the variety of marking paint, two-component paint is widely used at intersections and roundabouts. Therefore, the paint used should have adequate skid resistance. The object of this study was to evaluat...

Vision-based autonomous land vehicle guidance in outdoor road environments using combined line and road following techniques

An intelligent approach to autonomous land vehicle (ALV) guidance in outdoor road environments using combined line and road following and color information clustering techniques is proposed. Path lines and road boundaries are selected as reference models, called the line-model and the road-model, respectively. They are used to perform linemodel matching (LMM) and road-model matching (RMM) to lo...

Vision-Based Road-Following Using Proportional Navigation

This paper describes a new approach for autonomous guidance along a road for an unmanned air vehicle (UAV) using a visual sensor. A road is defined as any continuous, extended, curvilinear feature, which can include city streets, highways, and dirt roads, as well as forest-fire perimeters, shorelines, and fenced borders. To achieve autonomous road-following, this paper utilizes Proportional Nav...
