APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR GENERATING A AUXILIARY INFORMATION OF MOVING VEHICLES FOR DRIVER

摘要

An apparatus and a method for generating auxiliary information of a traveling vehicle for a driver is provided to easily recognize environment about a front road and surrounding vehicles of the traveling vehicle by recognition of lanes and detection of vehicles, thereby preventing accidents. An apparatus for generating auxiliary information of a traveling vehicle for a driver includes an image receiving part(202), an ultrasonic wave signal receiving part(204), a lane recognizing part(210), a vehicle recognizing part(230), and an environment reconfiguring part(220). The image receiving part is installed at front and rear sides to photograph front/rear areas. The ultrasonic wave signal receiving part outputs distance information on the basis of the time an ultrasonic wave signal is reflected from other vehicles. The lane recognizing part synthesizes recognition results of front and rear lanes and reconfigures the result into road identification image after judging whether the detected lane is a solid line or a dotted line. The vehicle recognizing part sets a road area as an area of interest by using the recognized result of the lane and detects the vehicle by using the image and the ultrasonic wave signal. The environment reconfiguring part produces driver auxiliary information on the traveling vehicle by reconfiguring the vehicle detected by the vehicle recognizing part in the road identification image reconfigured by the lane recognizing part.
