چکیده

We describe an algorithm by which an autonomous land vehicle is able to navigate along roads utilising lane boundary markings. This is achieved by defining a six-parameter model of the lane markings and fitting this to the processed monochrome image using non-linear least squares techniques. By qualitative as well as quantitative analysis over many hundreds of images the model used is shown to be justified, resulting in a very robust method, finding lane markings to sub-pixel accuracy.

A Realtime Road Boundary Detection and Vehicle Detection for Indian Roads

Traffic conditions in Indian urban and sub urban roads are in many ways not ideal for driving. This is due to faded and unmaintained lane markings. Therefore driving sometimes becomes difficult. Due to inappropriate markings of the roads, it is difficult to track the lane marking using conventional lane marking algorithms. Therefore the issue of Lane tracking with road boundary detection and ot...

SafeDrive: A Robust Lane Tracking System for Autonomous and Assisted Driving Under Limited Visibility

We present an approach towards robust lane tracking for assisted and autonomous driving, particularly under poor visibility. Autonomous detection of lane markers improves road safety, and purely visual tracking is desirable for widespread vehicle compatibility and reducing sensor intrusion, cost, and energy consumption. However, visual approaches are often ineffective because of a number of fac...

Use of a Monocular Camera to Analyze a Ground Vehicle’s Lateral Movements for Reliable Autonomous City Driving

For safe urban driving, one prerequisite is to keep a car within a road-lane boundary. This requires human and robotic drivers to recognize the boundary of a road-lane and the location of the vehicle with respect to the boundary of a road-lane that the vehicle happens to be driving in. We present a new computer vision system that analyzes a stream of perspective images to produce information ab...

Adaptive Robust Control for Trajectory Tracking of Autonomous underwater Vehicles on Horizontal Plane

This manuscript addresses trajectory tracking problem of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) on the horizontal plane. Adaptive sliding mode control is employed in order to achieve a robust behavior against some uncertainty and ocean current disturbances, assuming that disturbance and its derivative are bounded by unknown boundary levels. The proposed approach is based on a dual layer adaptive...

Lane Tracking with Omnidirectional Cameras: Algorithms and Evaluation

With a panoramic view of the scene, a single omnidirectional camera can monitor the 360-degree surround of the vehicle or monitor the interior and exterior of the vehicle at the same time. We investigate problems associated with integrating driver assistance functionalities that have been designed for rectilinear cameras with a single omnidirectional camera instead. Specifically, omnidirectiona...
