This paper proposes a new method to estimate the vanishing point used as the vehicle heading, which is essential in automatic driving systems. The proposed method uses a cross ratio comprised of a ratio of lengths from four collinear points for extracting the edges that shape the vanishing point. Then, lines that intersect at one point are fitted to the edges in a Hough space. Consequently, the vanishing point is estimated robustly even when the lane markings are occluded by other vehicles. In the presence of lane markings, the road boundaries are also estimated at the same time. Experimental results from images of a real road scene show the effectiveness of the proposed method. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
