Abstract

Technologies and techniques for vehicle perception. A contour extractor apparatus extracts contours from image data. Mapping offsets are determined between at least some of the grid points of a current image map and respective grid points of a next image map, and image velocity vectors are determined for at least some of mapping offsets. At least some of the grid points of the next image are warped to the respective grid points of the current image map. A determination is made if a contour of the warped grid points of the next image matches a contour of the respective grid points of the current map within a configured parameter. Object movement movement may then be determined from the image data, if the contour of the warped grid points of the next image matches the contour of the respective grid points of the current map within the configured parameter.
