Patent specification: "Method and system for determining the availability of a lane for a guided vehicle". The present invention relates to a method and a system for determining lane availability, said system being designed for a guided vehicle (1) capable of moving downstream in a lane (2), comprising: a camera ( 31) capable of capturing an image (311) of a downstream section of said strip (2), said downstream section being a portion of track extending from a first point (p1) of said strip (2) located downstream of said guided vehicle (1) to a second point (p2) of said track (2) located downstream of said guided vehicle (1), with the distance separating the chamber (31) from the second point (p2) being greater than the distance separating it from said first point (p1); an image processing and analysis device (32) for determining a downstream safety distance; and a track availability state.
