Abstract
A method for assisting a driver to drive a vehicle in a safer manner includes capturing images of road in front of the vehicle, and identifying a traffic sign in the images. A first image frame is captured at a first time and a second image frame is captured at a later second time when the images do comprise the traffic sign. A change in size or other apparent change of the traffic sign from the first image frame to the second image frame is determined, and conformity or non-conformity with a predetermined rule is then determined. The traffic sign can be analyzed and recognized to trigger the vehicle to perform an action accordingly when conformity is found. A device providing assistance with driving is also provided.
