    Abstract: A method for preventing a vehicle from deviating from a lane is provided, in which precise determinations of whether a vehicle is deviating from a lane may also be made when driving on curved sections of a road. Using DSRC, which is a system enabling communications between a vehicle and roadside equipment, information of road curvature and lane width is received. This road information and setting information of a camera mounted to the vehicle are then used to determine a lane deviation determination standard angle, which is used in curved sections of the road. A difference between the standard angle and a center value of left and right lane marker angles is compared with a critical value to determine whether the vehicle is deviating from the lane.

    Abstract: It is detected whether an automobile is running in a direction departing from a traffic lane, has already departed from the lane, or is running in a direction recovering from departure, by mounting on the automobile a steering angle detecting device for detecting an actual steering angle based on steering wheel operation of a driver, a television camera for taking pictures of the lane and a computer for processing the pictures taken by the television camera. The television camera is used to take pictures of markers on the lane while the automobile is running on the lane, and video signals are input into the computer. The computer is then used to process the input signals, thereby setting a virtual reference line forming a cubic curve approximating the set virtual reference line, calculating a virtual standard steering angle from a coefficient of a function representing the cubic curve, and comparing the steering angle detected by the detecting device based on the steering wheel operation of the driver with the virtual standard steering angle calculated by the computer.

    Abstract: A device for acquiring data indicative of the path of a lane is provided. The device incorporates a lane detection sensing circuit, an object position sensing circuit that detects at least the distance of an object located in front of the vehicle and its directional angle relative to the direction of vehicle motion, and a sensing circuit for the vehicle's own motion. An estimating device is provided that is supplied with lane recognition measurement data, object position measurement data, and measurement data on the vehicle's own motion. As a function of the vehicle's own motion, the estimating device determines the lane curvature and/or the transverse position of an object ahead of the vehicle relative to the lane by estimation, using a presettable estimation algorithm including a dynamic vehicle motion model. The device preferably includes a Kalman filter for this purpose, and is used, for example, in road vehicles.

    Abstract: An off-lane alarm apparatus quantizes an image signal provided from a line camera mounted on a car roof is into a corresponding binary image by an image processing device to detect a lane on a road surface, so that an alarm is generated when an off-lane state of the car from the lane is detected. After mounting a line camera on a car, markers preset at predetermined positions outside of the car are shot and preliminarily stored as binary image signals and the positional information is used as car side positional information for alarm determinations.
