Monitor system of vehicle outside and the method thereof
First Claim
1. A monitor system of a vehicle outside comprising:
- image-measured distance detection means for detecting a distance data between a vehicle and a three-dimensional object existing in front of the vehicle based on informations of an image in front of the vehicle;
laser-measured distance detection means for detecting the distance data between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object existing in front of the vehicle on the basis of the information of a laser radar by projecting a laser beam from the vehicle; and
three-dimensional object recognition means for recognizing the three-dimensional object existing in front of the vehicle based on the distance data detected by the image-measured distance detection means and the distance data detected by the laser-measured distance detection means, wherein the three-dimensional object recognition means recognizes the three-dimensional object by coordinating the distance data and by making the distance data of a horizontal direction and detected by the laser-measured distance detection means at the positions farther than the positions of the two sets of the distance data by a predetermined distance and which are detected by the image-measured distance detection means, ineffective, when the two sets of the distance data have a width within a preset value and the difference between the distance values of the two sets of the distance data is within a preset distance value.

Abstract
A monitor system of a vehicle includes an image-measured distance detector for detecting a distance data between a vehicle and a three-dimensional object based on information of an image in front of the vehicle, a laser-measured distance detector for detecting the distance data between the vehicle and the object by projecting a laser beam from the vehicle, and a three-dimensional object recognition device for recognizing the object based on the distance data detected by the image-measured distance detector and the distance data detected by the laser-measured distance detector. The three-dimensional object recognition device recognizes the object by coordinating the distance data and by making the distance data of a horizontal direction ineffective, when the two sets of distance data have a width within a present value and the difference between the distance values of the two sets of distance data is within a preset distance value.
