Abstract

This study deals with the problem of the recognition of the preceding vehicles by image processing. The purpose of this study is the development of the equipment to prevent a collision with preceding vehicles during driving the vehicle. In order to decrease the processing time and increase reliability, at first, the traffic lane is extracted. It is determined by detecting road edges and calculating their tangent. After the traffic lane is gotten, the position of the vehicle is searched inside the lane. The features used to detect the vehicles in the algorithm are shadow of the vehicle, vertical edges, horizontal edges, and symmetrical segment. The preceding vehicles are extracted successfully by this method.
