The most important automotive industries are incorporating technology to reduce risk in vehicles. Their products are expensive and lack flexibility to incorporate new features. This work presented a first approach to increase vehicle safety based on regional features. A framework was implemented, incorporating lane analysis and obstacle detection through image processing. The framework was tested using image datasets and real captures with satisfactory results.展开更多
