Abstract

A method and system for determining one or more dimension estimations for a vehicle. A sequence of image frames of a vehicle is received, and a digital representation of the vehicle is extracted from each image in the sequence of image frames. A bounding box is determined for the vehicle based upon the extracted digital representation for each digital representation of the vehicle and at least one dimension of the vehicle is estimated based upon the determined bounding box. An indication of the at least one estimated dimension is output. The indication of at least one estimated dimension is transferred as an input to a comparison technique for further processing the indication of the at least one estimated dimension. The comparison technique can include a parking determination process configured to determine a recommended spot for the vehicle based upon the indication of the at least one estimated dimension.
