Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for calibrating an on-board camera of a vehicle by detecting one or both of a lead vehicle geometry and a road lane width. In one example, a method includes identifying a known vehicle geometry of a lead vehicle; estimating a distance to the lead vehicle based on matching the known vehicle geometry to an image of the known vehicle geometry from the camera; and updating a calibration of the camera based on the estimated distance.
