Free space detection is one of the techniques for constructing safe driving support and autonomous driving. In this paper, we focus on narrow roads and describe the free space detection algorithm for constructing a narrow road driving support system. By installing the stereo camera in front of the vehicle, it is possible to perform object recognition and distance measurement without other external sensors. The installation position of the camera and the pitch angle of the camera are also used for detection of free space. The evaluation method is performed by comparing the detection result image with the previously prepared correct answer image. We are considering two kinds of evaluation methods based on the area and contour of free space.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
