TL;DR: The authors discuss various road segmentation methods for video-based road-following, along with approaches to boundary extraction and transformation of boundaries in the image plane into a vehicle-centered three-dimensional scene model.
Abstract: A description is given of VITS (for vision task sequencer), the vision system for the autonomous land vehicle (ALV) Alvin, addressing in particular the task of road-following. The ALV vision system builds symbolic descriptions of road and obstacle boundaries using both video and range sensors. The authors discuss various road segmentation methods for video-based road-following, along with approaches to boundary extraction and transformation of boundaries in the image plane into a vehicle-centered three-dimensional scene model. >
