Abstract

A vehicular sensing system includes a camera and a radar sensor disposed at a vehicle. The system, responsive to processing of radar data captured by the radar sensor, determines an edge of a road the vehicle is traveling along. Responsive to processing of image data captured by the camera, location of a lane marking of the road is determined. As the vehicle travels along the road, the system, responsive to failing to determine the location of the lane marking of the road via processing of the image data captured by the camera, predicts the location of the lane marking of the road based on the radar data. The vehicle is controlled based in part on the predicted location of the lane marking of the road.
