Abstract
This paper presents a method of detecting vehicles located around the host vehicle by using cameras having different fields of view to generate a surrounding map. T method of generating a surrounding map incorporates new algorithms that include two key technologies. One is the sensor integration of t e camera data The second key point is a method of checking error detection using traffic-flow-context based knowledge. The results of experiments conducted with a real vehicle are described. It is shown that this method is helpful in improving detection accuracy.
