METHOD FOR RECOGNITION OF OBJECT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for the prediction of the size to be expected of the image of a stationary object associated with a road in a picture of the environment in the field of view of a camera device which is in particular arranged at a motor vehicle and which has an image plane including image elements.

SOLUTION: The disclosed method includes the steps of: determining at least one relevant spatial zone from the field of view of the camera device; determining boundaries of the calculated projection onto the image plane of the at least one relevant spatial zone in order to determine at least one relevant image zone; determining a directional beam for each of the image elements in the at least one relevant image zone, the directional beam including these spatial points from the field of view which would be projected onto the respective image element on a projection onto the image plane; and determining at least one value for the size to be expected of the image of a road sign in the respective image element for each of the image elements in the relevant image zone.
