Abstract
A lane-keeping system suitable for use on an automated vehicle includes a camera, an inertial-measurement-unit, and a controller. The camera is configured to detect a lane-marking of a roadway traveled by a vehicle. The inertial-measurement-unit is configured to determine relative-motion of the vehicle. The controller in communication with the camera and the inertial-measurement-unit. When the lane-marking is detected the controller is configured to steer the vehicle towards a centerline of the roadway based on a last-position, and determine an offset-vector indicative of motion of the vehicle relative to the centerline of the roadway. When the lane-marking is not detected the controller is configured to: determine an offset-position relative to the last-position based on information from the inertial-measurement-unit, determine a correction-vector used to steer the vehicle from the offset-position towards the centerline of the roadway based on the last-position and the offset-vector, and steer the vehicle according to the correction-vector.
