VEHICULAR RADAR SYSTEM FOR PREDICTING LANES USING SMART CAMERA INPUT
A vehicular sensing system includes a camera and a radar sensor disposed at a vehicle. The system, responsive to processing of radar data captured by the radar sensor, determines an edge of a road the vehicle is traveling along. Responsive to processing of image data captured by the camera, location of a lane marking of the road is determined. As the vehicle travels along the road, the system, responsive to failing to determine the location of the lane marking of the road via processing of the image data captured by the camera, predicts the location of the lane marking of the road based on the radar data. The vehicle is controlled based in part on the predicted location of the lane marking of the road.
IN-CABIN RADAR APPARATUS
In an in-cabin radar apparatus, transmitting antennas are disposed at one side in a direction parallel to a control circuit and disposed in a line in a vertical direction, and receiving antennas are disposed at one side in a direction perpendicular to the control unit and disposed in a line in a horizontal direction. Each transmission side feed line may be perpendicularly connected to one of the transmitting antennas, and each receiving side feed line may be perpendicularly connected to one of the receiving antennas. Each of a distance between the transmitting antennas and a distance between the receiving antennas may be implemented to be less than or equal to half of a transmitting and receiving wavelength.
