본 발명은 차량의 장애물 통과가능여부 판단장치 및 그 방법에 관한 것으로서, 특히, 차량에 구비된 다수개의 카메라에서 이동거리에 따라 촬영한 영상을 이용하여 차량이 협소한 길이나 장애물 사이를 통과 가능한지 판단하여 운전자에게 알려주는 장치 및 그 방법으로써, 운전자에게 운행안전성과 편의성을 증대시키고 차량의 손상을 줄여 경제성을 향상시킬 수 있는 장치 및 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an apparatus for determining whether an obstacle can pass through a vehicle and a method thereof, and in particular, to determine whether a vehicle can pass between a narrow length or an obstacle using images taken according to a moving distance from a plurality of cameras provided in the vehicle. The present invention relates to a device and a method for informing a driver, and to a device and a method for increasing driving safety and convenience to a driver and reducing economical damage of the vehicle.

일반적으로 교통체증이 심한 도심지의 교차로나 골목길의 일측에 일렬주차가 되어있는 좁은 도로와 같이 차량의 통행로가 협소하거나, 교량 및 고가도로의 하부에 설치된 높이제한턱이나 주차장의 셔터와 같은 장애물 하측을 통과하게 될 때, 운전자는 서행을 하거나 정지하여 머리를 차체 밖으로 내밀어 운전자가 직접 눈으로 확인하고 통행하고 있다.In general, narrow traffic lanes such as narrow streets lined up on one side of alleys and alleys in urban areas with heavy traffic, or through lower obstacles such as shutters in heights below the bridges and overpasses When they do, the driver slows down or stops, extending his head out of the body, where the driver sees and sees.

자동차에는 운전자의 편의성을 향상시키기 위하여 후진시 후방에 존재하는장애물을 운전자에게 인지시키기 위한 카메라나 센서가 차량의 후방에 장착되고 있으며, 상기 카메라나 센서에서 입력받은 데이터를 이씨유(ECU ; electronic control unit)에서 판단하여 운전자에게 각종 정보를 알려주게 되고, 차량의 전방에 존재하는 장애물은 운전자가 이를 직접 인지하기 때문에 별도의 카메라나 센서를 장착하지 않고 있는 실정이다.In order to improve the driver's convenience, the camera is equipped with a camera or sensor on the rear of the vehicle for recognizing obstacles in the rear when the driver reverses, and the data received from the camera or sensor is transferred to the ECU. The unit determines the information and informs the driver, and since the driver recognizes the obstacle present in front of the vehicle directly, no additional camera or sensor is installed.

그러나, 종래에는 운전 미숙자의 경우 차량이 장애물이나 협소한 도로를 통과가능한지를 판단하지 못하기 때문에, 통행로가 협소하여 차량이 통행 불가능한 경우에도 차량을 주행하여 차체에 손상을 입히거나, 통행로가 넓어 차량이 통행가능한 경우에 차량을 주행하지 않아 후방차량의 소통을 방해하여 교통체증을 발생시키는 문제점이 발생하게 된다.However, in the prior art, the inexperienced driver cannot determine whether the vehicle can pass through obstacles or narrow roads. Therefore, even when the road is narrow and the vehicle is impossible to travel, the vehicle may be damaged and the vehicle may be damaged due to the wide passage. If it is possible to pass the traffic does not run the vehicle to interfere with the traffic of the rear vehicle to cause a traffic jam occurs.

도 4a 내지 도 4b는 본 발명의 차량의 장애물 통과여부 판단장치의 실시예를 도시하는 도이다.4A to 4B are diagrams illustrating an example of an apparatus for determining whether an obstacle passes through a vehicle according to the present invention.

이하, 도 1 내지 도 4를 참고하여 본 발명의 작용을 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, the operation of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4.

도 1 내지 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명의 차량의 장애물 통과여부 판단장치는 차량의 전방을 향해 상측면과 양측면에 각각 구비된 다수개의 카메라(100)에서 영상을 촬영하여 이씨유(200)로 영상을 보내게 되며, 상기 이씨유(200)에서는 차량에 구비된 거리측정수단(400)에서 측정된 거리에 따라 영상을 비교하여 장애물영상(A) 면적이 넓어지는 것을 판단하여 운전석에 마련된 계기판의 경고등(300)을 점등시키게된다.As shown in Figures 1 to 2, the obstacle passing device determination apparatus of the present invention by taking a picture from a plurality of cameras 100 provided on each of the upper side and both sides toward the front of the vehicle Lee C. (200) ) Is sent to the image, and the Lee C. 200 is provided in the driver's seat by comparing the image according to the distance measured by the distance measuring means 400 provided in the vehicle to determine that the area of the obstacle image (A) The warning light 300 of the instrument panel is to be turned on.

상기 거리측정수단(400)은 차량에 구비된 속도계와 타이머나 거리계를 사용하여 거리를 측정할 수 있으며, 기준거리를 초과하여 주행하였는지 판단하여 영상을 촬영하고, 이씨유(200)에서 상기 영상을 이미지 처리한 후, 장애물영상(A) 면적을 비교하게 된다.The distance measuring means 400 may measure the distance using a speedometer and a timer or a distance meter provided in the vehicle, determine whether the vehicle has traveled over a reference distance, and take an image, and take the image from the Lee 200. After the image processing, the area of the obstacle image A is compared.

도 3에 도시된 바와 같이 본 발명의 차량의 장애물 통과여부 판단방법은, 제1영상촬영단계(S1)에서 차량에 구비된 다수개의 카메라(100)에서 제1영상(A1)을 촬영하고, 이동거리측정단계(S2)에서는 속도계와 타이머나 거리계 등으로 이루어진 거리측정수단(400)으로 이동거리를 계산하게 되며, 이동거리판단단계(S3)에서는 상기 제1영상촬영단계(S1)에서 제1영상(A1)을 촬영한 후 기준거리를 이동하였는지 판단하게 되고, 상기 이동거리판단단계(S3)에서 제1영상(A1)을 촬영한 후 기준거리를 이동하였을 때, 제2영상촬영단계(S4)에서는 상기 카메라(100)에서 제2영상(A2)을 촬영하게된다.As shown in FIG. 3, in the method of determining whether an obstacle passes through the vehicle according to the present invention, the first image A1 is photographed by the plurality of cameras 100 provided in the vehicle in the first image photographing step S1 and then moved. In the distance measuring step S2, the moving distance is calculated by the distance measuring means 400 including a speedometer and a timer or a distance meter. In the moving distance determining step S3, the first image is captured in the first image shooting step S1. After photographing (A1), it is determined whether the reference distance is moved, and when the reference distance is moved after photographing the first image A1 in the moving distance determining step (S3), the second image photographing step (S4). In FIG. 2, the camera 100 captures a second image A2.

또한, 도 4a에 도시된 바와 같이, 영상판단단계(S5)에서는 상기 제1영상촬영단계(S1) 즉, 실선으로 나타난 위치에서 장애물(B)을 촬영한 제1영상(A1) 보다 상기 제2영상촬영단계(S4) 즉, 은선으로 나타난 위치에서 장애물(B)을 촬영된 제2영상(A2)의 장애물영상(A) 면적이 증가하였는지 판단하고, 경고등점등단계(S6)에서는 상기 영상판단단계(S5)에서 제1영상(A1) 보다 제2영상(A2)의 장애물영상(A) 면적이 증가하였을 때, 차량의 운전석에 형성된 경고등(300)을 점등시키게 된다.In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 4A, in the image judging step S5, the second image taking step S1, that is, the second image than the first image A1 photographing the obstacle B at the position indicated by the solid line. In the image photographing step S4, that is, whether the area of the obstacle image A of the second image A2 in which the obstacle B is photographed at the position indicated by the hidden line is increased or not, and in the warning lighting step S6, the image judging step is performed. When the area of the obstacle image A of the second image A2 is larger than the first image A1 in S5, the warning lamp 300 formed in the driver's seat of the vehicle is turned on.

도 4b에 도시된 바와 같이, 실선으로 나타난 위치에서 촬영한 제1영상(A1)의 장애물영상(A) 면적보다 은선으로 나타난 위치에서 촬영한 제2영상(A2)의 장애물영상(A) 면적이 좁아질 때에는 장애물이 차량에 부딪히지 않게 되므로 경고등(300)이 점등되지 않게 된다.As shown in FIG. 4B, the area of the obstacle image A of the second image A2 photographed at the position indicated by the hidden line is larger than the area of the obstacle image A of the first image A1 photographed at the position indicated by the solid line. When narrowing, the obstacle does not hit the vehicle, so the warning lamp 300 is not turned on.

따라서, 통행로가 협소하여 차량이 통행 불가능한 경우와 통행로가 넓어 차량이 통행가능한 경우를 운전 미숙자가 판단할 수 있다.Therefore, the immature driver can determine the case where the vehicle is impossible to pass due to the narrow passage and the case where the vehicle is accessible due to the wide passage.

이상과 같은 본 발명은 차량에 구비된 다수개의 카메라에서 이동거리에 따라 촬영한 영상을 이용하여 차량이 협소한 길이나 장애물 사이를 통과 가능한지 판단하여 운전자에게 알려줌으로서 운전자에게 운행안전성과 편의성을 증대시키고 차량의 손상을 줄여 경제성을 향상시킬 수 있는 발명인 것이다.The present invention as described above by using the images taken according to the moving distance from a plurality of cameras provided in the vehicle to determine whether the vehicle can pass between narrow lengths or obstacles to inform the driver to increase driving safety and convenience to the driver It is an invention that can improve the economics by reducing damage to the vehicle.
