Résumé / Abstract
Most road accidents are due 10 a /ad of perception of the driver about the road situation. Paroto system's objective is to help the driver in detecting obstacles and thus allow him a better and earlier reaction in dangerous situations. Data coming from a radar and an infrared camera are merged in order to take advantage of complementary information. Eventually the driver can be alerted alter a filtering step. This step consists in deciding which information is relevant for the driver amongst of the sensors analysis. In this paper, we present a segmentation technique using the particular content of infrared images. We also present a motion analysis approach, based on features. Both processes lead to a first set of promising results.
