The invention discloses a
monocular vision and
laser radar fusion-based road travelable
region detection method and belongs to the intelligent transportation field. Existing unmanned vehicle road detection methods are mainly based on methods such as
monocular vision, stereo vision,
laser sensor and multi-
sensor fusion methods, have defects of low robustness to illumination, complex three-dimensional matching,
laser sparseness, low overall fusion efficiency and the like. Although some supervised methods have achieved better accuracy, the training processes of the supervised methods are complex, and the generalization effects of the supervised methods are poor. According to the
monocular vision and laser
radar fusion-based road travelable
region detection method provided by the present invention, ultra-pixel and
point cloud data fusion is adopted; on the basis of features, road regions can be obtained through
machine self learning; and the features are fused through the Bayesian frame, so that road information is obtained, and a final region can be obtained. With the method adopted, strong
hypothesis information and complex training processes are not required. The
monocular vision and laser
radar fusion-based road travelable
region detection method has the advantages of excellent generalization performance, high robustness,
fast speed and high precision, and can be popularized and used more easily in practical application.
