Abstract

An image edge extraction device for an automated driving system is capable of extracting an image edge in a rapid manner. The device employs an image edge extraction method that includes: acquiring a grayscale image of a target image; calculating an edge magnitude and an edge angle of the grayscale image, so as to generate an edge magnitude image and an edge angle image; detecting an edge peak of the edge magnitude image in accordance with the edge angle image, so as to acquire each edge point of the edge magnitude image and acquire an edge peak detection result; and performing double-thresholding segmentation on the edge peak detection result through a flooding method, so as to acquire an image edge of the target image.
