Abstract
Example lane detection systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a method received an image from-facing vehicle camera and applies a geometric transformation to the image to create a birds-eye view of the image. The method analyzes the birds-eye view of the image using a neural network, which was previously trained using side-facing vehicl camera images, to determine a lane position associated with the birds-eye view of the image.
