Road surface information acquisition apparatus for entrance/exit lane

摘要

A road surface information acquisition apparatus a lane line recognizer configured to, based on a road surface image of a carpool lane forward of a vehicle acquired by a camera, recognize lane lines of the carpool lane. The apparatus further includes a determiner configured to, based on a lane partition line recognized by the lane line recognizer, determine a start point and an end point of the entrance and exit, and a lane-width calculator configured to, based on the lane lines recognized by the lane line recognizer, calculate a lane width of the carpool lane. The apparatus further includes a lane-width corrector configured to, based on determinations made by the determiner, correct the lane width calculated by the lane-width calculator. Based on a broken line as the lane partition line, the determiner determines the start point and the end point of the entrance and exit of the carpool lane.
