First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of providing guidance information, the method being implemented by a computer, the method comprising:
- acquiring a forward image of a user vehicle by a camera;
setting a portion of the forward image as a region of interest (ROI) to detect at least one of a lane, a pedestrian, a traffic light, a crosswalk, and a vehicle, wherein setting the portion of the forward image as the ROI comprises detecting the traffic light;
providing guidance information associated with said at least one of the lane, the pedestrian, the traffic light, the crosswalk, and the vehicle detected based on the set ROI; and
determining whether a sign of the detected traffic light is red, green, or yellow based on a sensed wavelength of light from the traffic light, or determining whether a sign of the detected traffic light is flickering,wherein providing the guidance information comprises providing the guidance information including information on the determined sign of the detected traffic light.
