This paper describes a car detection method by combining data obtained from a laser and a camera. Data from the camera and the laser range finder (LRF) are combined after a calibration method has been performed. The ...

Autonomous mobile robots navigation and control systems are still hugely important in real time robotic applications. When moving towards fully autonomous navigation, guidance plays a vital task for successful autonomous ...

This paper proposes a new method to estimate the 3D motion of a vehicle based on car-like structured motion model using an omnidirectional camera and a laser rangefinder. In recent years, motion estimation using vision ...

Over the past few decades, pavement markings have played a key role in intelligent vehicle applications such as guidance, navigation, and control. However, there are still serious issues facing the problem of lane marking ...

In recent years, classical structure from motion based SLAM has achieved significant results. Omnidirectional camera-based motion estimation has become interested researchers due to the lager field of view. This paper ...

This paper presents a human detection system based on component detector using multiple feature descriptors. The contribution presents two issues for dealing with the problem of partially obscured human. First, it presents ...

In the last few years, the integration of cameras and laser rangefinders has been applied to a lot of researches on robotics, namely autonomous navigation vehicles, and intelligent transportation systems. The system based ...

The safety plays the most important role for both pedestrian and driver in autonomous, semi-autonomous or non-autonomous vehicle. To improve pedestrian safety, this paper presents a new type of laser feature extraction ...

This paper describes the smoke detection for static cameras. The background subtraction was used to determine moving objects. Color characteristics were utilized to distinguish smoke regions and other scene members. Separate ...
