The development of a driver assist system with distance estimation using a single camera / Erma Rahayu Mohd Faizal Abdullah

In this thesis, an investigation on lane and vehicle tracking on a highway is carried out. The highway is chosen as the test ground due to the one-way flow of traffic, relative straightness of the road and consists of mostly automobiles.
