The whole process is performed in the Euclidean space and consists of two stages. Initially, a compact representation of the original 3D data points is computed. Then, a RANSAC based least squares approach is used for fitting a plane to the 3D road points. Fast RANSAC fitting is obtained by selecting points according to a probability distribution function that takes into account the density of points at a given depth. Finally, stereo camera positionand orientation---pose---is computed relative to the road plane. The proposed technique is intended to be used on driver assistance systems for applications such as obstacle or pedestrian detection. A real time performance is reached. Experimental results on several environments and comparisons with a previous work are presented.", optnote="ADAS", optnote="exported from refbase (http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/show.php?record=916), last updated on Wed, 22 Jan 2014 12:39:51 +0100", opturl="http://www.cvc.uab.es/adas/publications/sappa_eurocast2007a.pdf", file=":http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/SDG2007b.pdf:PDF" }
