  • Alarm method for reversing a vehicle by sensing obstacles using structured light
    Patent number: 9963069
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an alarm method for reversing a vehicle, in particular for a land vehicle, by sensing obstacles using structured light. When a vehicle reverses, the structured-light projecting module installed on the rear side of the vehicle projects structured light continuously, A plurality of light pattern messages are reflected to the structured-light camera unit. Then the height of and the distance to the obstacle are calculated. According to the height of the obstacle, whether the obstacle may influence the vehicle will be judged. If so, sounds will be emitted for reminding the driver according to the distance to the obstacle and the alarm distance information. Thereby, the reversing safety can be improved.
