METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING VEHICLE POSITION BY EMPLOYING POLARIZATION IMAGE

摘要

Disclosed are a method and a system for detecting a vehicle position by employing a polarization image. The method comprises a step of capturing a polarization image by using a polarization camera; a step of acquiring two road shoulders in the polarization image based on a difference between a road surface and each of the two road shoulders in the polarization image, and determining a part between the two road shoulders as the road surface; a step of detecting at least one vehicle bottom from the road surface based on a significant pixel value difference between each wheel and the road surface in the polarization image; and a step of generating a vehicle position from the vehicle bottom based on a pixel value difference between a vehicle outline corresponding to the vehicle bottom and background in the polarization image.
