| Robust Sensing of the Automotive Environment In order to increase safety and comfort in future vehicles, reliable
sensing of the vehicle surroundings is of fundamental necessity. This is
a challenging task given the dynamic nature and adverse conditions found
in a typical sensing environment. Among all the signal processing and
pattern analysis methods applied in deriving such an environment
description, our research concentrates on techniques for tracking
multiple targets, with specific focus on Sequential Monte Carlo methods,
also called Particle Filters. The advantage of such a framework is
that we are able to describe in a probabilistic fashion the acquired
sensor data, and robustly fuse them, while always considering the scene
dynamics over time. As a result we are able to increase the reliability
of the derived driving-environment information. We apply with success
such methodologies in typical surrounding sensing tasks, such as lane,
road signs and vehicles detection, as well as in support functions such
as camera calibration. This project is funded by Elektrobit Automotive GmbH.
