Monitor system of vehicle outside and method of monitoring same
First Claim
1. A monitor system of a vehicle outside, comprising:
- image-measured distance detection means for detecting a distance between a vehicle and a three-dimensional object existing in front of the vehicle based on data of an image in front of the vehicle;
laser-measured distance detection means for detecting the distance between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object existing in front of the vehicle on the basis of the information of a laser radar for projecting a laser beam from the vehicle; and
final distance setting means for finally setting the distance between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object existing in front of the vehicle according to the distance detected by the image-measured distance detection means and the distance detected by the laser-measured distance detection means, wherein the final distance setting means finally sets the distance between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object existing in front of the vehicle according to the value of the distance detected by the laser-measured distance detection means.
