Abstract:

Since the problems of intelligent auxiliary driving and co-navigating have received more and more attention recent years, a road recognition system is developed for the intelligent vehicle with CMOS camera as its road sensor, which provides solutions for the road recognition and automatic drive functions of the intelligent vehicle. The installation and sampling process of the CMOS camera is explained. A PC based monitor and test program of the road recognition algorithm is build to guarantee the accuracy, rapidity and adaptability of the road recognition function. Once the algorithm passes the test, it can be compiled directly under embedded development environment without modification and runs in the micro controller of the Intelligent Vehicle properly. A 3D road simulation system is also build on PC, which easily creates all kinds of tracks for the emulation and measurement of the road recognition system, besides, each kind of the actual road can also be emulated by the simulation system. Experiments prove that under such tests, the road recognition algorithm is satisfying for road recognition and tracking, so the approach could actively improve the research on Road recognition function of intelligent vehicle, and also provides support for the development of vision navigation and autonomous driving.

I. System Introduction

The driverless car concept embraces an emerging family of highly automated cognitive and control technologies, ultimately aimed at a full “taxi-like” experience for car users, but without a human driver. Together with alternative propulsion, it is seen by some as the main technological advance in car technology by 2020.
