Abstract
An apparatus that supports driving of a vehicle may include a location check device that determines whether the vehicle is located within a circuit area, based on location information of the vehicle, a camera device that obtains an image around the vehicle, and a processor that recognizes a specific object from the obtained image based on whether the vehicle is located within the circuit area, sets a region of interest (ROI) with respect to the specific object, and performs image-processing on the ROI preferentially.
Claims18
An apparatus for supporting driving of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
- a location check device configured to determine whether the vehicle is located within a circuit area, based on location information of the vehicle;
- a camera device configured to obtain an image around the vehicle;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- recognize a specific object from the obtained image based on whether the vehicle is located within the circuit area;
- set a region of interest (ROI) with respect to the specific object;
- and
- perform image-processing on the ROI preferentially,
- wherein the specific object includes a post configured to provide a signal to a driver of the vehicle using a signal flag, and
- wherein the post is located within the circuit area.
An operating method of a driving supporting apparatus of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- identifying location information of the vehicle;
- determining whether the vehicle is located within a circuit area;
- obtaining an image around the vehicle;
- recognizing a specific object in the obtained image when the vehicle is located within the circuit area;
- setting an ROI with respect to the specific object;
- and
- performing image-processing on the ROI preferentially,
- wherein the specific object includes a post configured to provide a signal to a driver of the vehicle using a signal flag, and
- wherein the post is located within the circuit area.
