FUSION OF FAR INFRARED AND VISIBLE IMAGES IN ENHANCED OBSTACLE DETECTION IN AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS

摘要

A computerized system mountable on a vehicle operable to detect an object by processing first image frames from a first camera and second image frames from a second camera. A first range is determined to said detected object using the first image frames. An image location is projected of the detected object in the first image frames onto an image location in the second image frames. A second range is determined to the detected object based on both the first and second image frames. The detected object is tracked in both the first and second image frames When the detected object leaves a field of view of the first camera, a third range is determined responsive to the second range and the second image frames.
