Abstract

A method and a device are for detecting and validating objects from camera images, e.g. for driver assistance systems. The method involves: capturing a series of camera images, detecting a potential collision object in at least one image, determining corresponding features in two consecutive images in the image region of the detected potential collision object, associating the corresponding features with a plane, and validating the potential collision object when the associated plane corresponds to a back plane or a side plane.
