  • Publication number: 20240013423
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, devices, and computer-readable media for detecting lanes and objects in image frames of a monocular camera. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising receiving a sample set of image frames; detecting a plurality of markers in the sample set of image frames using a convolutional neural network (CNN); fitting lines based on the plurality of markers; detecting a plurality of vanishing points based on the lines; identifying a best fitting horizon for the sample set of image frames via a RANSAC algorithm; computing an inverse perspective mapping (IPM) based on the best fitting horizon; and computing a lane width estimate based on the sample set of image frames using the IPM in a rectified view and the parallel line fitting.
