Title:
【発明の名称】マシーンビジョン尾灯トラッキングを利用する衝突回避システム
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2003523299
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A vehicle-mounted sensing method and apparatus capable of monitoring the relative speed, distance, and closure rate between a sensor-equipped host vehicle and a sensed target object. The sensor uses an electronic camera to passively collect information and to provide the information to a system that identifies objects of interest using visual clues such as color, shape, and symmetry. The object's proximity may be determined, to a first approximation, by taking advantage of symmetrical relationships inherent in the vehicle of interest. The method and apparatus are particularly well-suited vehicular safety systems to provide for optimal risk assessment and deployment of multiple safety systems.
