Abstract
It is provided a state recognition system configured to recognize a state of a traveling road on which a vehicle travels, the state recognition system being configured to: select a substance adhered on a lens of a camera mounted on the vehicle in an image captured by the camera; and determine whether the traveling road is on-road or off-road by determining a type and an amount of the selected adhered substance.
Claims20
A state recognition system configured to recognize a state of a traveling road on which a vehicle travels, the state recognition system being configured to:
- select a substance adhered on a lens of a camera mounted on the vehicle in an image captured by the camera;
- and
- determine whether the traveling road is on-road or off-road by applying a probabilistic model to a type and an amount of the substance adhered on the lens of the camera.
A state recognition system configured to recognize a state of a traveling road on which a vehicle travels, comprising:
- a lens diagnoser, wherein the lens diagnoser diagnoses a state of a lens of a camera mounted on the vehicle based on an image captured by the camera;
- a road surface analyzer, wherein the road surface analyzer analyzes a feature of a road surface of the traveling road based on a probabilistic model applied to the image;
- and
- a traveling road determiner, wherein the traveling road determiner determines whether the traveling road is on-road or off-road based on road surface information obtained from the feature of the road surface and the state of the lens.
A state recognition method for recognizing, by an on-vehicle system, a state of a traveling road on which a vehicle travels,
- the on-vehicle system including a processor that performs predetermined processing by executing a program, and a memory that stores the program,
- the state recognition method comprising:
- selecting, by the processor, a substance adhered on a lens of a camera mounted on the vehicle in an image captured by the camera;
- and
- determining, by the processor, whether the traveling road is on-road or off-road by applying a probabilistic model to a type and an amount of the substance adhered on the lens of the camera.
A state recognition method for recognizing, by an on-vehicle system, a state of a traveling road on which a vehicle travels,
- the on-vehicle system including a processor that performs predetermined processing by executing a program, and a memory that stores the program,
- the state recognition method comprising:
- diagnosing, by the processor, a state of a lens of a camera mounted on the vehicle based on an image captured by the camera;
- analyzing, by the processor, a feature of a road surface of the traveling road by applying a probabilistic model to the image;
- and
- determining, by the processor, whether the traveling road is on-road or off-road based on road surface information obtained from the feature analyzed in the analyzing of the feature of the road surface and the state of the lens diagnosed in the diagnosing.
