Systems and methods for navigating a vehicle among encroaching vehicles

Systems and methods use cameras to provide autonomous navigation features. In one implementation, a method for navigating a user vehicle may include acquiring, using at least one image capture device, a plurality of images of an area in a vicinity of the user vehicle; determining from the plurality of images a first lane constraint on a first side of the user vehicle and a second lane constraint on a second side of the user vehicle opposite to the first side of the user vehicle; enabling the user vehicle to pass a target vehicle if the target vehicle is determined to be in a lane different from the lane in which the user vehicle is traveling; and causing the user vehicle to abort the pass before completion of the pass, if the target vehicle is determined to be entering the lane in which the user vehicle is traveling.

SYSTEMS, PROCESSES AND DEVICES FOR OCCLUSION DETECTION FOR VIDEO-BASED OBJECT TRACKING
20180012078 · 2018-01-11 ·

Processes, systems, and devices for occlusion detection for video-based object tracking (VBOT) are described herein. Embodiments process video frames to compute histogram data and depth level data for the object to detect a subset of video frames for occlusion events and generate output data that identifies each video frame of the subset of video frames for the occlusion events. Threshold measurement values are used to attempt to reduce or eliminate false positives to increase processing efficiency.

Arrangement for Monitoring State and Sequence of Movement in an Aseptic Work Chamber of a Containment
20230005164 · 2023-01-05 · ·

The arrangement is provided for monitoring state and sequence of movement in an aseptic work chamber of a containment standing in an installation room. At least one work glove projects into the work chamber, wherein the respective work glove is able to stretch up to a maximum grasping range in the three spatial axes in the work chamber. The arrangement comprises a tracking system, the recordings of which serve to continuously localize the at least one work glove in three dimensions and are stored in a computer unit. At least one three-dimensional or two-dimensional prohibited region, which may be adjoined by a warning region, is defined in the work chamber. Individual surface sections or the entire floor of the containment can be defined as a prohibited region. A prohibited region and possibly a warning region in front of this can be set up around machines which are installed in the work chamber and which constitute a danger for the operator. The coordinates of prohibited region and warning region are stored in the computer unit. The at least one work glove must not be used to intervene in the prohibited region and should not be used to intervene in the warning region.
