First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for detecting the position of a target object in the environment of a host vehicle, comprising the following steps:
- receiving a first position information on the target object using an object position sensor like e.g. a radar sensor,receiving an image containing the target object as detected by an image sensor like e.g. a camera,projecting the first position on the image, andrefining the first position by computing a second refined position of the target object on the basis of a symmetry search within the image.

Abstract
A method is proposed for detecting the position of a target object in the environment of a host vehicle, comprising the steps of
- receiving a first position of the target object as detected by an object position sensor like a radar sensor;
- receiving an image containing the target object as detected by an image sensor like a camera;
- projecting the first position on the image; and
- refining the first position by computing a second position of the target object on the basis of a symmetry search within the image.
