Abstract

The fisheye camera can get rich information, and the fisheye camera has a lower installation cost. Therefore, it has an irreplaceable role in the assisted driving system. This paper proposes a detection method based on the fisheye camera. Firstly, a method of feature block filtering based on gradient maxima is proposed, which makes it possible to distribute the features as much as possible on the outer and inner edges of the obstacle and on the edge of the texture, while limiting the number of selected features. Much of the integrity of the obstacle area is preserved. The feature block classes are then clustered to obtain a complete obstacle region. Compared with the current popular moving target detection methods, the proposed algorithm can preserve the integrity of the obstacle area more effectively, and can effectively reduce the feature matching error rate. Moreover, the method can effectively judge the relative distance between the obstacle and the vehicle. Change the situation to detect proximity to obstacles. Experiments show that the proposed method is effective in many scenarios and has stronger accuracy and robustness.
