Visual Perception andTracking ofVehicles forDriver Assistance Systems
Cristina Hilario · 2006
Inthis paperaDriver Assistance System forvehicle detection andtracking ispresented. Thegoalofthe system istoperceive thesurroundings ofthevehicle looking forother vehicles. Depending whenthey havebeendetected (overtaking, atlongrange) movement, orageometric modelofthevehicle are used. Later, thevehicle istracked. Asthealgorithm receives information fromaroaddetection module somegeometric restrictions canbeapplied. Amultiresolution approach isusedtospeedup the algorithm andworkinreal-time. Examples ofreal images areshowntovalidate thealgorithm.
