SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IN VEHICLE LANE DETERMINATION USING CMOS IMAGE SENSOR

摘要

A system and method for vehicle lane determination using a CMOS image sensor camera to take periodic (or continuous) images of the road ahead of a vehicle. Using image processing techniques by counting how many road stripes or lines are to the left and right of the vehicle the current lane could be determined of that vehicle. Other information could also be determined by looking to see if the lines are solid or striped. Further embodiments include the use of a cellular telephone as the image sensor and to transit position information to a back office.
