    摘要: An outer environment of the vehicle is inputted as an image. Image processing is performed to the input image, and many edge segments are extracted. The edge segments which are colinear are clustered in order to perform a matching operation. Matching is performed in a respective set of plural longer edge segments representing plural clusters in correspondence with a set of plural guide signs as standards of guide of the vehicle mapped on the image input surface, and a set of longer edge segments being most matched each other is extracted. From position and headings of the extracted longer edge segments on the image input surface, the position and heading in the outer environment are calculated. The position and heading of the vehicle are detected from these values. The position and heading of the vehicle obtained in the above-mentioned image processing and the position and heading of the vehicle measured by other techniques and are evaluated synthetically. When the guide signs are mapped on the image input surface, the forecast values of position and heading of the vehicle at the image input time are used. In this manner, the detecting accuracy of the position and heading of the vehicle is improved.

    摘要: An object determining apparatus is disclosed which is structured such that right and left disparity images are acquired from different view points, disparity of corresponding points in the right and left images is computed, information relating to the points for which disparity is computed is voted to respective blocks of a disparity map that arranges blocks with one side corresponding to disparity, other side corresponding to image lateral position, and these sides being elongated with increasing disparity. An attribute of three dimensional object is applied to first blocks in which distribution of voted disparity points in disparity direction is small and image vertical direction is large. An attribute of road surface is applied to second blocks in which distribution in disparity direction is large and image vertical direction small, thereby determining an object as a three dimensional object or road surface.
