Abstract :
Lane recognition is an essential technique for automobile active safety applications. We aim at developing a high speed and high accurate lane recognition system. Especially, curvature lane recognition is not easy and no efficient system has been reported. This paper proposes a new efficient algorithm for lane recognition. The algorithm extracts lanes from a picture of 500 times 350 pixels in 0.8 sec by the PC software.
