Embodiment
The video conversion that major technology means of the present invention are gathered different video camera is two independently to get a bird's eye view image; Again to this two independently get a bird's eye view image repeat region do correlativity comparison, comparison result is if the high person of its correlativity judges that then there is not the barrier of tool height in this zone; Otherwise, if the low person of correlativity then judges the barrier that has the tool height.Come accurately to judge whether to have barrier and its position and distance with the method.
At first please refer to Fig. 1; System architecture diagram for one embodiment of the invention; In the present embodiment, gather vehicle body image on every side with six image collection devices of being located on the car 10, all there is partly overlapping the same area image in the image that wherein every adjacent image collection device 10 is gathered; Unification is called repeat region under this area image, and image collection device 10 is charge coupled cell (CCD) video camera or complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) video camera.Present embodiment also is combined with vehicle body signal picker 12 to obtain the driving situation, and the vehicle body signal comprises steering wheel angle angle, GES or gear signal, the data that is provided by image processor 14 reception raw videos and vehicle body signal again.Mainly judge the turn inside diameter situation in the present embodiment with the steering wheel angle signal; Therefore according to the steering wheel angle signal of vehicle body; Image processor 14 selects correct suitable mapping table 141 to carry out the image space conversion; Wherein mapping table 141 establishes the space conversion information of relevant camera position and steering wheel angle angle earlier before present embodiment is carried out; Mapping table 141 is also noted down simultaneously has skew control, have an X-rayed information such as conversion and image stitching, is to get a bird's eye view image with raw video through the ring field that mapping table can be converted into multiple visual angle fast.And image processor 14 is inserted in raw video in the mapping table 141 and export the ring field general view at suitable virtual visual angle, again it is output in a display 16, and this display 16 shows the driving boost line or the parking boost line of this vehicle periphery.
Detect in order to carry out the vehicle body peripheral obstacle; Image processor 14 of the present invention is except changing a holistic ring general view; Must six raw videos be converted into individually independently to get a bird's eye view image and then obtain six and independently get a bird's eye view behind the image and compare its repeat region and judge that again two independently get a bird's eye view the correction of image property of the repeat region of image, with this as the means that detect barrier.If wherein correlativity is high, there is not the barrier of tool height in the expression repeat region; Otherwise,, represent that then there is the barrier of tool height in repeat region if correlativity is low.And present embodiment is got a bird's eye view measured its position of barrier demonstration on the image in Huan Chang, further can install alarming device 20 additional, and it can be light-emittingdiode, hummer or loudspeaker, reminds driver's attention deficit disorder thing to send alarm signal.
Continue, the repeat region how further explain the present invention independently gets a bird's eye view image by comparison two is to judge the technological means of barrier.Known techniques obtains at least four raw videos of vehicle's surroundings earlier; Can get a ring field of overlooking after synthesizing via image processing again and get a bird's eye view image; But in the image calculation processes, need ground is regarded as a flat surfaces, also promptly can only the object of tool height be regarded as planar object and carry out image processing.So the object of the tool height phenomenon that when getting a bird's eye view video conversion, will be distorted causes obtaining effectively ring and gets a bird's eye view image, this is the shortcoming of known techniques.The present invention then uses gets a bird's eye view the unique point that image is distorted, and comes embodiment of the present invention to detect the technology of barrier.
The present invention gathers the vehicle body image in six zones on every side by six image collection devices 10, converts a ring field into through image processor 14 again and gets a bird's eye view image 22, and wherein this image collection device 10 is a video camera.Please refer to Fig. 2 (a), the present invention gathers forward and backward a-quadrant of vehicle body and B zone respectively by first video camera and second video camera that are placed on the vehicle 24; The 3rd video camera and four cameras are gathered left and right C zone of vehicle body 24 and D zone respectively, shown in Fig. 2 (b); And the 5th video camera and the 6th video camera gather vehicle body 24 left and right E zone and F zone respectively, shown in Fig. 2 (c).The image of wherein above-mentioned per two adjacent areas all has a repeat region; Promptly the hatched example areas in Fig. 2 (d) 211,212,213,214,215, shown in 216; This also is the zone of detection of obstacles; Ring field image capturing range after those repeat regions are sewed up through image processing then is vehicle body 24 near zones 22, promptly shown in Fig. 2 (e).
Continue, image processor 14 converts the raw video in above-mentioned A, B, C, D, E, six zones of F separately into and compares two adjacent repeat regions of getting a bird's eye view image respectively by barrier computing unit 18 again after independently getting a bird's eye view image, and judges its correlativity.Again with the a-quadrant among Fig. 2 (a) independently get a bird's eye view image with Fig. 2 (c) in the image of independently getting a bird's eye view in E zone be example, this a-quadrant can comprise the identical repeat region 212 shown in Fig. 2 (e) with the E zone.Please continue with reference to figure 3; (s t) represents the repeat region GTG value of a-quadrant, w (s to f among the figure; T) represent the regional repeat region GTG value of E; Image processor 14 is cut into nine sub regions with repeat region, calculate the related coefficient γ of the relative subregion GTG value in two zones, and the computing formula of related coefficient does
γ = Σ s Σ t [ f ( s , t ) - f ‾ ] [ w ( s , t ) - w ‾ ] { Σ s Σ t [ f ( s , t ) - f ‾ ] 2 Σ s Σ t [ w ( s , t ) - w ] ‾ 2 } 1 / 2
Wherein f and w are the average GTG value of a-quadrant and E zone repeat region image.The meaning of this formula is got a bird's eye view image with each single-point difference in zone and the difference value of accumulating every single-point for calculating two, and then obtains two related coefficient γ of getting a bird's eye view image.If two images of getting a bird's eye view repeat region between image are identical, then related coefficient is 1; If the image in two repetition zones is uncorrelated fully, its related coefficient then is 0.With the threshold value setting of disturbance in judgement thing related coefficient is 0.5 to be example, if on behalf of this subregion, related coefficient less than this threshold values, have barrier.Like the zone among Fig. 3 28, because of related coefficient γ less than 0.5, be that this zone of decidable 28 has barrier to exist with this.Be with, getting a bird's eye view image during for flat surfaces when repeat region can distortion distortion, and the related coefficient γ of gained representes then that greater than threshold values 0.5 repeat region does not have barrier to exist.
Please continue and consult Fig. 4, judge the synoptic diagram of clear in order to explanation the present invention.As shown in the figure, vehicle periphery does not have barrier to exist among the figure, and vehicle 42 sides are two to have four and get a bird's eye view image suture line 32 in the lane line 30 on ground and figure.When beginning to judge when clear is arranged; Be positioned at video camera elder generation collection vehicle 42 the place ahead raw videos 36 of vehicle front side; And the video camera collection vehicle 42 right side raw videos 34 on right side, do not convert into through 14 of image processors again and independently get a bird's eye view image 38,40, the repeat region of getting a bird's eye view image 381,401 in Fig. 4 after visible the place ahead and the right side conversion; And judge the correlativity size of the repeat region get a bird's eye view image here via the barrier computing unit; Because this routine repeat region 381,401 be smooth road surface, so judged result is that correlativity is big, then represents clear existence here.
Fig. 5 then judges the synoptic diagram that barrier is arranged for the present invention; Be example with vehicle 44 the place ahead images and side image equally; When a cylinder type barrier 46 appears in vehicle 44 right fronts, the raw video 48,50 that image collection device 10 is gathered convert into two independently get a bird's eye view image 52,54 after because this cylinder type barrier 46 has highly; Therefore carrying out video conversion for after getting a bird's eye view image; Cylinder type barrier 46 bodies can distortion distortion, causes the correlativity of two repeat regions 521,541 of getting a bird's eye view image 52 and 54 low, can distinguish that to this this zone has barrier and exists.
So via above-mentioned image processing process, the present invention can be set in repeat region driver's visual dead angle place, see through the present invention and judge the result of repeat region can know whether there is barrier.
In addition, the present invention also the related coefficient of repeat region capable of using change and come the disturbance in judgement object location.With the above embodiment of the present invention is example, calculates earlier the related coefficient of nine sub regions in two repeat regions of getting a bird's eye view image respectively, if if there is a barrier to be arranged in the parton zone of this repeat region, its related coefficient can present little value; Otherwise other that barrier does not fall in this repeat region are subregion partly, and its related coefficient then presents big value.In other words, the subregion of the clear in this repeat region and the subregion intersection that barrier is arranged, its related coefficient die-offs because barrier occurs, and then utilizes the present invention of this characteristic can calculate this barrier of acquisition from the nearest distance of vehicle body.More than be principal character of the present invention technology, to the dead angle of video camera and the shortcoming of picture distortion after getting a bird's eye view video conversion, the present invention compares the correlativity after image is got a bird's eye view in conversion, with acquired disturbance object location accurately.Compared to known techniques, the present invention more can strengthen the effect of getting a bird's eye view the relevant detection of obstacles of image technology.In addition, to get a bird's eye view image output and more press close to human nature in order to make, the present invention also proposes a new improvement to the disposal route that image is got a bird's eye view in the ring field.
The technology that connecting needle is got a bird's eye view image to ring of the present invention field further specifies; The invention is characterized in and increased one group of mapping table; In this embodiment; Mapping table for the total system device set up finish after; Set each camera post earlier in the spatial information of car body, and set up the coordinate transitional information of the pairing virtual view conversion of the separated steering wheel angle of each (5 degree, 10 degree, 15 degree ...), so mapping table has write down the transfer process that a unit point of raw video corresponds to another unit point of getting a bird's eye view image.Therefore; When image collection device 10 collects image; Can cooperate steering wheel angle signal at that time and then select pairing mapping table; To obtain again image be inserted in this mapping table can be with the signal of video signal fast processing, wherein the present invention is got a bird's eye view the video conversion computing method and is utilized video camera coordinate transition matrix, virtual view coordinate transition matrix, perspective conversion formula and anti-perspective conversion to carry out video conversion, and then obtains a two-dimentional vehicle ring field general view.
Below lift instance explanation: when the driver controls vehicle and bends to right; As shown in Figure 6; Image processor receives vehicle body 60 signals; Image is seen through the mapping table conversion in advance configured, get a bird's eye view image capturing range 62 to the driver with the ring field of the right front maximum region of headstock that virtual visual angle 64 is appeared that the inclined left rear is provided, and detect being present in this barrier of getting a bird's eye view image capturing range 66.Above-mentioned is an advantage of the present invention; Be because the barrier of vehicle periphery is not all can threaten to vehicle completely; And barrier computing unit of the present invention does not need the four corner of monitoring round of vehicle yet; The direction that the present invention can be only advances to vehicle and adjust the detection of obstacles zone, making detection of obstacles scope and method more is wisdom.
Be that flow chart of steps of the present invention is also simultaneously with reference to figure 1 please with reference to Fig. 7.At first; Step S10 is that vehicle body signal picker 12 is gathered the vehicle body signal earlier; Wherein this vehicle body signal can be steering wheel for vehicle angular signal, gear signal or GES; And step S12 is by six raw videos that are arranged on around image collection device 10 collection vehicle on the vehicle, and the image that wherein adjacent image collection device 10 is gathered has at least one overlapping region; After obtaining image and vehicle body signal, like step S14, image processor 14 is selected pairing mapping table 141 according to the vehicle body signal, and the mapping table of wherein selecting carries out skew control, perspective conversion to image and sew up image getting a bird's eye view image to produce a ring field; Obtain this ring field and get a bird's eye view image, like step S20; Image is got a bird's eye view in this rings field of display 16 outputs, like step S22; Continue, image processor 14 converts six raw videos into respectively else independently gets a bird's eye view image, like step S24; Shown in step S26, barrier computing unit 18 is judged the two adjacent correlativitys of independently getting a bird's eye view its repeat region of image, and present embodiment is cut into a plurality of subregions with repeat region earlier, and the related coefficient that calculates subregion wherein the formula system of related coefficient do
γ = Σ s Σ t [ f ( s , t ) - f ‾ ] [ w ( s , t ) - w ‾ ] { Σ s Σ t [ f ( s , t ) - f ‾ ] 2 Σ s Σ t [ w ( s , t ) - w ] ‾ 2 } 1 / 2
Wherein, and f (s, t) (s t) is respectively two adjacent these and independently gets a bird's eye view this subregion GTG value of this repeat region of image, and f and w are respectively two adjacent these and independently get a bird's eye view the average GTG value of this subregion of this repeat region of image with w; Whether whether come the disturbance in judgement thing to exist less than threshold values according to related coefficient, wherein on behalf of clear, related coefficient then occur greater than threshold values, related coefficient representes that then barrier exists, like step S28 less than threshold values; If there is barrier to exist, then gets a bird's eye view sign barrier position in the image, and see through alarming device 20 alarm and reminding drivers, like step S30 in this ring field; Exist like clear, then this flow process finishes operation.
Via above-mentioned explanation; At the image suture shortcoming of barrier takes place can't to show because of the image dead angle it is thus clear that the present invention improves known techniques, utilization of the present invention encircles the characteristic of the distortion that must be distorted after video conversion is got a bird's eye view in the field when there is the image overlap place in barrier, further be converted into the means of disturbance in judgement object location; Two raw videos that will have overlap; Convert into individually and get a bird's eye view striograph, in two correlativitys of getting a bird's eye view its repeat region of image of comparison, the little person of correlativity then has barrier; And the subregion of analyzing thin portion accurately concludes this barrier position; Thus, the present invention saves other checkout equipments such as ultrasound wave or radar are installed, and utilizes image technology can record the barrier minimum distance purely.In addition; Drive a vehicle and turn or sensing range when retreating in order to strengthen the driver; In the video conversion technology, the present invention encircles the field with a plurality of mapping tables and gets a bird's eye view video conversion, and wherein each mapping table comprises the space conversion information under each driving states; So getting a bird's eye view the virtual visual angle of image, ring of the present invention field can change according to the driving situation; And native system shows that the detection of obstacles scope also because of the change at virtual visual angle changes, is more humane driving servicing unit, so the driver is when using technological means of the present invention; Image is got a bird's eye view in the ring field that different visual angles under the situation such as can obtain to keep straight on, turn, retreat, thereby can more safely drive and set out on a journey.
