    Abstract: The invention relates to a lane device (30) and a method for detecting the lane of a vehicle (10), as well as to a selector device which interacts with the lane device (30). The lane device (30) contains evaluation means (32, 35, 37) for evaluating distance data (60, 61, 66) of at least one distance sensor (58, 59, 65), it being possible to determine a lateral distance (d1-d4) from a reference body (62, 64) which runs essentially continuously to the side of the lane, at least in sections, from the distance data (60, 61, 66). The evaluation means (32, 35, 37) are configured to acquire lane data (36) as a function of the distance data (60, 61, 66). According to the invention, the evaluation means (32, 35, 37) are configured to filter out interference information, caused in particular by vehicles (17) present in the region of the lane or discontinuities (63) of the reference body (62, 64), from the distance data (60, 61, 66).

    Abstract: A lane detection apparatus for a host vehicle, the apparatus comprising: a first sensing means, which provides a first set of data dependent upon features of a part of the road ahead of the host vehicle; a second sensing means, which provides a second set of data dependent upon features of a part of the road ahead of the host vehicle; and a processing means arranged to estimate the location of lane boundaries by interpreting the data captured by both sensing means. The second sensing means may have different performance characteristics to the first sensing means. One or more of the sensing means may include a pre-processing means, which is arranged to process the “raw” data provided by the sensing means to produce estimated lane boundary position data indicative of an estimate of the location of lane boundaries. The fusion of the data points can be performed in many ways, but in each case the principle is that more reliable raw data points or de-constructed data points are given preference over, or are more dominant than, less reliable data points. How reliable the points are at a given range is determined by allocating a weighting to the data values according to which sensing means produces the data and to what range the data values correspond.

    Abstract: A lane deviation alarm system is comprised of a forward-observed-point calculating section that calculates a forward observed point by multiplying a vehicle speed of a host vehicle and an anticipated deviation time; a forward-observed-point lateral-displacement calculating section that calculates a lateral displacement at the forward-observed-point, on the basis of a yaw angle and the forward-observed-point; a lane deviation tendency determining section that determines whether the host vehicle is in a lane deviation tendency, on the basis of the forward-observed-point lateral-displacement; and a criteria changing section that changes a criteria for determining a lane deviation tendency of the host vehicle, on the basis of a detecting condition of the lane defining line.

    Abstract: A lane tracking system for a vehicle employing redundant imaging devices with different fields of view is disclosed. The imaging devices are oriented in generally opposite directions so glare or other harsh lighting hampering one imaging device will not affect the other device. The appropriate image is selected based on image quality and used to detect lane markers and vehicle position. A preferred application for lane departure warning is also disclosed.
