TECHNIQUES FOR USING A SIMPLE NEURAL NETWORK MODEL AND STANDARD CAMERA FOR IMAGE DETECTION IN AUTONOMOUS DRIVING

An advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) and corresponding method for a vehicle utilize a camera system configured to capture an image and a controller configured to receive the captured image, detect an object in the captured image using a simple neural network model, track the detected object using a tracking technique to obtain a tracked position, project a trajectory of the detected object using a trajectory projection technique to obtain a predicted position, determine a most likely position of the detected object based on at least one of the tracked and predicted positions, generate a two-dimensional (2D) birdview projection illustrating the detected object according to its determined most likely position, and control at least one ADAS feature of the vehicle using the generated 2D birdview projection.
