IMAGE AND MAP-BASED DETECTION OF VEHICLES AT INTERSECTIONS
First Claim
1. An object detection system, comprising:
- one or more sensors disposed on a vehicle; and
a computing device in communication with the one or more sensors, comprising;
one or more processors for controlling operations of the computing device; and
a memory for storing data and program instructions used by the one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to;
receive, from the one or more sensors, image data representative of an image;
detect an object on the image;
identify a path extending from the vehicle to the detected object on the image;
retrieve map data including lane information;
compare the path to a representation of the lane information; and
determine a position of the detected object based on a comparison of the path and the image.

Abstract
A system, device, and methods for image and map-based detection of vehicles at intersections. Once example computer-implemented method for detecting objects includes receiving, from the one or more sensors disposed on a vehicle, image data representative of an image and detecting an object on the image. The method further includes identifying a path extending from the vehicle to the detected object on the image and retrieving map data including lane information. The method further includes comparing the path to a representation of the lane information and determining the position of the detected object based on a comparison of the path, representation of the lane information, and the image.
