Apparatus and Method for Recognizing Lane
First Claim
1. An apparatus for recognizing a lane, comprising:
- a lane edge extracting unit for extracting an edge of a lane from a driving image of a vehicle;
a lane detecting unit for drawing a linear functional formula between x and y, corresponding to the extracted edge of the lane, based on an X-Y coordinate system in which a horizontal axis of the driving image is an x-axis and a vertical axis is a y-axis; and
a lane location analyzing unit for analyzing a location of the lane by using the drawn linear functional formula.

Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus and method for recognizing a lane, which may have a small amount of calculations and may improve rate, energy efficiency and accuracy in lane recognition by flexibly correcting an interested area. The apparatus for recognizing a lane includes a lane edge extracting unit for extracting an edge of a lane from a driving image of a vehicle, a lane detecting unit for drawing a linear functional formula between x and y, corresponding to the extracted edge of the lane, based on an X-Y coordinate system in which a horizontal axis of the driving image is an x-axis and a vertical axis is a y-axis, and a lane location analyzing unit for analyzing a location of the lane by using the drawn linear functional formula.
