Abstract
A device and a method for representing the yaw orientation of a vehicle visible on an image, including: obtaining the position in the image of a rectangular bounding box surrounding the vehicle, obtaining the position of a vertical split line of the bounding box configured to be placed at a corner of the vehicle separating a first portion of the vehicle from a second portion of the vehicle, the first and second portion being either the front, the back, or a side of the vehicle, determining a signed horizontal shift of a horizontal position, associated with the vertical split line, with respect to a horizontal reference position, associated to the bounding box, normalizing the signed horizontal shift to obtain a value θ to be used in the representation of the pose of the vehicle.
