Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for processing the data of heterogeneous sensors in an integrated manner to classify one or more objects on a road and detect the locations of the objects. The apparatus includes a camera image processing unit, a scanning information processing unit, and an integrated processing unit. The camera image processing unit generates the results of the processing of camera images based on the camera images collected from one or more cameras. The scanning information processing unit generates the results of the processing of scanning information based on the scanning information collected from one or more laser scanners. The integrated processing unit generates the types and final locations of the objects located on the road by processing the generated results of the processing of the camera images and the generated results of the processing of the scanning information in an integrated manner.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for detecting an obstacle adaptively to vehicle speed. The apparatus includes a control unit, a speed-adaptive camera sensor, a speed-adaptive laser scanner sensor, and a detection data integration unit. The control unit receives information about the speed of a vehicle and a Pulse Per Second (PPS) signal from a Global Positioning System (GPS) module. The speed-adaptive camera sensor adjusts the range of a detection region based on the information about the speed of the vehicle, and generates first detection data on an object. The speed-adaptive laser scanner sensor adjusts the range of the angle of the field of view of a laser scanner based on the information about the speed of the vehicle, and generates second detection data on the object. The detection data integration unit outputs obstacle detection data.
