An Approach to Vehicle Tracking Based on Particle Filter and Height Estimation Using Smart Phone Sensors

Abstract :

Estimating a distance from a preceding vehicle is a focus of this research.  By using only a single eye camera, a particle filter based car following algorithm for this purpose is proposed, and its results will be shown.  In addition, an approach to estimating the height of the road by using built-in sensors of a smart-phone such as an accelerometer and a GPS is proposed.  It also uses a 3-D digital road map data, if available, as another input data.  The results will be shown.
