Abstract

A system for determining range and lateral position of a vehicle is provided. The system includes a camera and a processor. The camera is configured to view a region of interest, including the vehicle, and generate an electrical image of the region. The processor is in electrical communication with the camera to receive the electrical image and analyzes the image by performing a pattern matching algorithm on the electrical image, based on a template. A score is determined based on the algorithm indicating the likelihood that certain characteristics of the electrical image actually correspond to the vehicle.
