Abstract

Image processing techniques are described to select and crop a region of interest from an image obtained from a camera located on or in a vehicle, such as an autonomous semi-trailer truck. The region of interest can be identified by selecting one or more reference points and determining one or more positions of the one or more reference points on the image obtained from the camera. As an example, a location of two reference points may be 500 meters and 1000 meters in front of a location of autonomous vehicle, where the front of the autonomous vehicle is an area towards which the autonomous vehicle is being driven.
