Abstract:
A method of generating and communicating lane information from a host vehicle to a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) network includes collecting visual data from a camera, detecting a lane within the visual data, generating a lane classification for the lane based on the visual data, assigning a confidence level to the lane classification, generating a lane distance estimate from the visual data, generating a lane model from the lane classification and the lane distance estimate, and transmitting the lane model and the confidence level to the V2V network.
