چکیده

AURORA is a vision-based system designed to warn a vehicle driver of possible impending roadway departure accidents. It employs a downward looking color video camera with a wide angle lens, a digitizer, and a portable Sun Sparc workstation. Using a binormalized adjustable template correlation algorithm, it reliably detects lane markers on structured roads at 60 Hz. A time-to-lanecrossing (TLC) measurement is calculated for each image based on the estimation of vehicle’s lateral position and velocity. This measurement is used to trigger an alarm when the TLC falls below a preset threshold. Promising results have been achieved under a variety of weather and lighting conditions, on many road types.

Location-centric storage for safety warning based on roadway sensor networks

We propose a novel vision for roadway safety warning based on sensor networks, aiming at providing user-friendly zero-delay safety warnings to motorists. Our idea leverages the advanced sensing, networking and storage technologies. Roadway sensors detect events and store event records at multiple designated locations along the against traffic direction, such that the passing-by drivers can be a...

A DSP-Based Lane Departure Warning System

A DSP-Based adaptive lane departure warning system (ALDWS) is presented in this paper. The system can be applied in highways, tunnels and urban roadways, and works well in sunny, cloudy, and rainy conditions in day or night. Different types of lane markings can be detected, such as solid, dashed, double, etc., by the proposed vision-based detection algorithm. The DSP image processor on ALDWS wo...
