APPARATUS FOR DETECTING INTER-VEHICLE DISTANCE USING LAMP IMAGE AND METHOD FOR DETECTING INTER-VEHICLE DISTANCE USING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention provides one kind and is readily available required vehicle headway information for detecting a vehicle headway, and obtaining, and cleverly controls installation in the car using cruise control and headlamp. It includes that camera unit obtains in the vehicle of external image that this, which is used to detect vehicle headway, reference pixel recognition unit identify its right lamp image oncoming vehicle for showing of the pixel in the second reference pixel of which pixel display left side lamp image oncoming vehicle in the first reference pixel and the first reference pixel positioned at horizontal direction and vehicle headway detection unit detection user& prime which the distance between; Vehicle and oncoming vehicle s are based on the number between pixel, first reference pixel and the second reference pixel. ;The 2014 of copyright KIPO submissions;[Reference numerals] (110) camera unit; (120) reference pixel recognition unit; Vehicle headway detection unit (130)
