A New Multi-camera Approach for Lane Departure Warning

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNIP,volume 6915))

Abstract

In this paper, we present a new multi camera approach to Lane Departure Warning (LDW). Upon acquisition, the captured images are transformed to a bird’s-eye view using a modified perspective removal transformation. Then, camera calibration is used to accurately determine the position of the two cameras relative to a reference point. Lane detection is performed on the front and rear camera images which are combined using data fusion. Finally, the distance between the vehicle and adjacent lane boundaries is determined allowing to perform LDW. The proposed system was tested on real world driving videos and shows good results when compared to ground truth.
