Description

Detection of lane markings based on a camera sensor can be a low cost solution to lane departure and curve over speed warning. A number of methods and implementations have been reported in the literature. However, reliable detection is still an issue due to cast shadows, wearied and occluded markings, variable ambient lighting conditions etc. We focus on increasing the reliability of detection and at the same time compute relevant road geometric parameters like curvature, lane width and vehicle position within its lane. Video sequences are processed frame by frame, that is, no temporal coherence or continuity has been enforced. Our method is able to run at least at 40 ms. Several videos of results can be viewed at the following web page.
