Abstract

This paper describes a three dimensional vision system for intelligent vehicles. After reviewing related works, the paper focuses on a stereo vision system which measures the distance to the vehicle in front using trinocular triangulation. Custom processor architectures were developed for low mass-production cost, real-time operation, low power consumption, and small physical size. The system was installed in a trunk of a car and evaluated successfully on highways
