Abstract :
This paper presents an image reorganization procedure aimed to speed-up and simplify the detection of road boundaries in automotive road following applications. Some results of road markings detection in images acquired from the MOB-LAB land vehicle are presented, together with the description of the current and future implementations of the reorganization procedure on the PAPRICA system. The data reorganization process offers the possibility of designing and implementing on a SIMD processor an extremely simple and robust low-level algorithm for the detection of road markings
