Abstract

A method for lane detection, including A computer implemented method for lane detection, the method includes (a) receiving, at one or more processing circuits of a vehicle, a plurality of initial lane boundary estimates that represent lane boundaries within a road environment, the plurality of initial lane boundary estimates include (i) first lane boundary estimates and (ii) single-image based lane boundary estimates; wherein under one or more predefined conditions the single-image based lane boundary estimates are sent once per multiple images; and (a) generating, by the one or more processing circuits, real-world lane detection estimates based on the initial lane boundary estimates, the generating includes evaluating real-world distances between initial lane boundary estimates of the lane boundaries, the initial lane boundary estimates are associated with a same point of time.
