2024 Taking Advantage of Road Users Occluding the Road: Supporting Camera-based Road Tracking in Shared Spaces using Radar Doppler Measurements
abstract
Conventional road tracking approaches rely on direct measurements of the road. Using camera, LiDAR, or radar sensors, they detect lane markings, textures, road boundaries, curbs, or obstacles. However, all require a direct line of sight to the road. In shared spaces, e.g., a busy campus road, a lot of pedestrian groups are occluding the road for all sensors. Hence, we present a novel measurement concept to support road tracking in presence of other road users. In fact, we are taking advantage of them: Where other road users are moving, there might be the road. Therefore, we probabilistically identify dynamic objects based on radar Doppler measurements. Considering the measurement uncertainties, we then build a probability map of road user paths. This is used to derive probable road areas. Integrating this measurement into an existing camera-based road tracking, we evaluate the accuracy of the resulting road estimate using an HD map.
