Proposed is a method for estimating the distance to and the location of an autonomous vehicle by using a mono camera, and more particularly, a method that enables information necessary for autonomous travel to be efficiently acquired using a mono camera and LiDAR. In particular, the method can acquire sufficiently reliable information in real time without using expensive equipment, such as a high-precision GPS receiver or stereo camera, required for autonomous travel. Consequently, the method may be widely used in ADAS, such as for semantic information recognition for autonomous travel, estimation of the location of an autonomous vehicle, calculation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance, or the like, even without the use of GPS, and furthermore, a camera capable of performing the same functions can be developed by developing software through the use of the corresponding data.
