Abstract :
The Autonomous Ground Vehicle (AGV) is a key technology in Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), a sophisticated road traffic information system in many countries. Robust and real-time lane detection in an outdoor environment is essential for AGVs. In order to apply outdoor AGV we employ an omni-directional camera.
