Vehicle and Lane Detection

CSS 487: Computer Vision Final Project

Taking steps toward autonomous vehicles.

We developed a lane and vehicle detection program by utilizing various computer vision methods. As a summary, we utilized a Hough Transform for lane detection and a trained support vector machine on HOG (histogram of gradient) image representations and sliding window in order to detect vehicles in a ROI (region of interest). Also added a feature to count the number of vehicles showed in each frame based on the bounding boxes.

Our C++ solution requires C++17
