Abstract

A system and method for remapping surface areas of vehicle environment that include receiving a plurality of images of the surface areas of the vehicle environment from a computing device. The system and method also include evaluating the plurality of images to determine an optical flow value associated with at least one pixel of at least two images of the plurality of images. The system and method additionally include determining at least one surface area that includes an external environment of the vehicle. The system and method further include remapping the surface areas by filtering the at least one surface area from which the external environment is captured.
