Abstract
A travel lane detection method overlaps a plurality of travel lane boundary point groups parallel to each other, extracted according to continuity of a plurality of travel lane characteristic points detected by a target detection sensor installed in a vehicle, estimates a travel lane outline according to the travel lane characteristic points included in the overlapped travel lane boundary point groups, and determines travel lane boundaries based on lateral positions of the travel lane boundary point groups parallel to each other and the estimated travel lane outline.
