The embeddability of lane detection algorithms on heterogeneous architectures

International audienceLane detection plays a crucial role for Advanced Driver As-sitance System (ADAS) or autonomous driving applications. Literature shows a lot of lane detection algorithms can work in real time with good results. However, they require much computer processing and cannot be embedded in a vehicle ECU without deep software optimizations. In this paper, we discuss the embeddability of lane detection algorithms by comparing state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of functional performance and computational timing. We identify what essential parts of lane detection are time consuming, and show these parts can be computed in real time on embedded systems
