Monocular computer vision technology-based target object distance measurement method and system

Abstract

The invention discloses a monocular computer vision technology-based target object distance measurement method and system. The method comprises the following steps of collecting a sequence image in front or back of a vehicle in real time through a camera; determining a reference height of a skyline according to the collected sequence image; taking a target with a constant physical size in the sequence image as a target object, and through a target detection method, determining a feature pixel size, used for distance measurement, of the target object; through an optical geometric model, determining the physical size of the target object; performing smoothing on a calculation result of the feature pixel size of the target object through a data smoothing method to output a stable physical size, and then calculating a real feature size of the target; and based on the calculated real feature size, performing calculation through the optical geometric model to obtain a distance of the target object. Multiple factors influencing distance measurement precision are considered more comprehensively, so that the calculation precision is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to assisted driving technology, in particular to a method and system for measuring the distance of a target object based on monocular computer vision technology. Background technique [0002] In the field of automotive electronics, the distance monitoring warning function (Headway Monitoring Warning, HMW) and the collision warning function (Forward Collision Warning, FCW) of the advanced driving assistant system (Advanced Driving Assistant System, ADAS) must rely on distance measurement components and algorithms . Furthermore, if the adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control, ACC) and automatic emergency braking (Autonomous Emergency Braking, AEB) functions are to be realized, the distance measurement must achieve a sufficiently high accuracy. At present, there are mainly two mainstream technologies for measuring the distance of obstacles ahead. The first is to collect images by monocular / binocular cameras, identif...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] For ranging components, the ranging method based on millimeter-wave radar will be affected by factors including the material, surface roughness, size and motion state of the detected object, and cannot judge the type of the detected object and predict its motion state

At the same time, the cost of millimeter-wave radar is relatively high, and the installation procedure is complicated

[0004] For the ranging algorithm, the sample size of the data regression model and the selection of the regression method directly affect the accuracy of ranging. Compared w...
