VEHICULE AUTONOME, ET PROCEDE ET APPAREIL POUR ESTIMER SON MOUVEMENT ET DETECTER UNE INFORMATION TRIDIMENSIONNELLE D'UN OBJET APPARAISSANT DEVANT LUI

摘要

The vehicle has a corresponding point detection unit (141) to detect corresponding points from two consecutive images obtained through a camera (110). An epipolar computation unit (142) computes epipolar geometry information based on orientation information and information on the points. A 3D analysis unit (144) analyzes 3D information of an object existing in front of the vehicle based on the geometry information. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) an apparatus for estimating the motion of an autonomous vehicle (b) an apparatus for detecting 3D information of an object (c) a method for controlling the motion of an autonomous vehicle (d) a method for estimating the motion of an autonomous vehicle (e) a method for detecting 3D information of an object (f) a computer readable recording medium that stores a computer program to implement a methods.
