Abstract:

The goal of this project was to detect road boundaries and stationary obstacles on the road using low-cost automotive-grade LiDAR scanners for the purpose of lateral positioning of the vehicle along the road. For autonomous driving, this information is especially useful on roads without proper lane markings or regions with poor GPS reception, such as tunnels, dense urban environment or under a heavy tree canopy. For manual driving, it can similarly be used as input to lane-centering assist systems.
