A method for detecting boundaries of lanes on a road is presented. The method comprises receiving, by one or more processors from an imaging system, a set of pixels associated with lane markings. The method further includes partitioning, by the one or more processors, the set of pixels into a plurality of groups. Each of the plurality of groups is associated with one or more control points. The method further includes generating, by the one or more processors, a spline that traverses the control points of the plurality of groups. The spline traversing the control points describes a boundary of a lane.

Lane detection and tracking techniques for imaging systems

A method for tracking a lane on a road is presented. The method comprises receiving, by one or more processors from an imaging system, a set of pixels associated with lane markings. The method further includes generating, by the one or more processors, a predicted spline comprising (i) a first spline and (ii) a predicted extension of the first spline in a direction in which the imaging system is moving. The first spline describes a boundary of a lane and is generated based on the set of pixels. The predicted extension of the first spline is generated based at least in part on a curvature of at least a portion of the first spline.
