LaneDetect

LaneDetect is a simple road lane detection algorithm using OpenCV, which I originally wrote in Python and then transferred to C++ to get familiar with the C++ API of OpenCV.

Requirements

• Linux (I recommend Ubuntu 16.04 or 18.04)
• OpenCV Version >= 3.4 (sources download, installation instructions
• Spline header library from here (will be automatically downloaded if you run cmake)

Build instructions

Clone this repository, e.g. git clone https://github.com/jhallier/LaneDetect

cd LaneDetect
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Usage

Run

./LaneDetect [image filename]

or call the LaneDetect class functions from your own code.

ToDo

1. Using different color spaces for improved lane detection
2. Smoothing over a few frames
3. Track lanes over time (assign IDs to lanes, distinguish own and other lanes)
4. Improve robustness at crossroads etc.
