Method for measuring vehicle distance based on single eye machine vision

Abstract

The invention relates to a vehicle distance measurement method based on the Monocular Camera Machine Vision. The method is consisted of an image capturing system adopting monocular camera and a multi-function image processing and analyzing system. The method starts from image information of the monocular camera image capturing system to process for the image information, uses an image recognition technology to extract and remedy to gain a size of standard object edge, reverses and rebuilds space information of the standard object according to the size of the standard object accounted in the image and a pre-calibration value, and processes to calculate a relative position of the standard object in the three-dimensional space, so as to realize the vehicle distance measurement. The invention solves problems that the existing monocular camera has a lower recognition rate for the whole vehicle contour and ground road logo line and needs to collect the image of the whole vehicle, has a large calculation, is not applicable to short distance, low speed and large vehicle flow situations.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vehicle distance measurement method based on monocular machine vision. Background technique [0002] With the rapid popularization of electronic systems on vehicles and the continuous deepening of research and application of various active safety technologies, the requirements for the intelligence and automation of vehicles are also getting higher and higher. In particular, breakthroughs in technologies such as electronic brakes, automatic cruise, and electronic throttle have made it possible to realize automatic vehicle control. In this context, under high-speed conditions, maintaining a necessary safe distance for vehicles and maintaining a safe driving speed under a certain distance between vehicles is the key to ensuring safe and smooth roads and ensuring the safety of vehicles and personnel. At the same time, in low-speed congestion, the automatic driving technology that maintains a small fixed distance from the vehicle...
