[0002] If you want to monitor the environment around the vehicle, you need sensors to sense pedestrians and obstacles around the vehicle and in front of the road, and get the distance of obstacles around the vehicle to provide a basis for subsequent vehicle control (such as driving and braking or controlling direction, etc.). There are many common sensors. According to the requirements for the perception of the vehicle's surrounding environment, they can be specifically divided into four types: lidar sensors, millimeter-wave radar sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and camera image perception. As a type of camera image perception, the on-board binocular camera module also has its own advantages. It can complete 3D stereo recognition functions, target tracking, position prediction, and cooperate with millimeter-wave radar to detect target speed.
