Road reconstruction by image analysis for an autonomous vehicle for protection of mobile working sites
C. Lailler, Jean-Pierre Deparis, J.‐G. Postaire · 2003
The authors present a method to analyse white line images for visual navigation of an autonomous vehicle. The procedure results from a tradeoff between robustness and real-time performance. With a very low cost image processor architecture, the system takes about one second to compute the model of the white lines when the road is straight, and about three seconds when the vehicle faces a curve. The authors are working on the integration of this line image recognition module with the control module. The problem is to use the result of the visual reconstruction of the lines painted on the road to determine the vehicle mobility commands required to follow these lines.>
