A system for autonomously navigating a vehicle through a road junction may include at least one processor programmed to receive from an image capture device at least one image representative of an environment of the vehicle. The processor may also be configured to analyze the image to identify two or more landmarks located in the environment of the vehicle and to determine, for each of the two or more landmarks, a directional indicator relative to the vehicle. The processor may be configured to determine a current location of the vehicle relative to the road junction based on an intersection of the directional indicators a heading for the vehicle based on the directional indicators for the two or more landmarks. The processor may be configured to determine a steering angle for the vehicle by comparing the vehicle heading with a predetermined road model trajectory at the current location of the vehicle.

Navigating road junctions

Systems and methods are provided for vehicle localization using lane measurements. In one implementation, a method of correcting a position of a vehicle navigating a road segment may include determining, based on an output of at least one navigational sensor, a measured position of the vehicle along a predetermined road model trajectory; receiving at least one image representative of an environment of the vehicle, analyzing the at least one image to identify at least one lane marking, determining, based on the at least one image, a distance from the vehicle to the at least one lane marking, determining an estimated offset of the vehicle from the predetermined road model trajectory based on the measured position of the vehicle and the determined distance, and determining an autonomous steering action for the vehicle based on the estimated offset to correct the position of the vehicle.

Localizing vehicle navigation using lane measurements

A system for autonomously navigating a vehicle along a road segment may be based on a predetermined landmark location. The system may include at least one processor programmed to receive from a camera, at least one image representative of an environment of the vehicle, and determine a position of the vehicle along a predetermined road model trajectory associated with the road segment based, at least in part, on information associated with the at least one image. The at least one processor may be further programmed to identify a recognized landmark forward of the vehicle based on the determined position, wherein the recognized landmark is beyond a sight range of the camera, and determine a current distance between the vehicle and the recognized landmark by comparing the determined position of the vehicle with a predetermined position of the recognized landmark. The at least one processor may also be programmed to determine an autonomous navigational response for the vehicle based on the determined current distance.
