Abstract
A method of distant on-road object detection, comprising, capturing an initial frame of a roadway lane in a direction of travel, detecting lane edges in the initial frame, capturing a subsequent frame of the roadway lane, cropping the subsequent frame based on the detected lane edges of the initial frame resulting in an image patch, detecting an image patch object within the image patch, down-sampling the subsequent frame, detecting a down-sampled object within the down-sampled subsequent frame and merging the detections within the image patch and the detections within the down-sampled subsequent frame.
