Abstract
Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and methods for object detection such as traffic lights, speed signs, in an automotive environment, are disclosed. In an embodiment, ADAS includes camera system for capturing image frames of at least a part of surroundings of vehicle, memory comprising image processing instructions and processing system for detecting one or more objects in a coarse detection followed by a fine detection. Coarse detection includes detecting presence of the one or more objects in non-consecutive image frames of the image frames, where non-consecutive image frames are determined by skipping one or more frames of the image frames. Upon detection of presence of the one or more objects in coarse detection, fine detection of the one or more objects is performed in a predetermined number of neighboring image frames of a frame in which the presence of the objects is detected in coarse detection.
