Camera monitor system for commercial vehicles including wheel position estimation

A method for estimating a trailer wheel position includes identifying a first set of wheel locations in a first image. Each of the wheel locations in the first set of wheel locations is associated with a corresponding trailer angle. The first set of wheel locations is clustered and a primary cluster...

Zusammenfassung:A method for estimating a trailer wheel position includes identifying a first set of wheel locations in a first image. Each of the wheel locations in the first set of wheel locations is associated with a corresponding trailer angle. The first set of wheel locations is clustered and a primary cluster in the first set of wheel locations is identified. A best fit curve is applied to the primary cluster. The best fit curve is a curve associating wheel position to trailer angle. An estimated wheel position is determined by applying a determined trailer angle to the best fit curve in response to the wheel being hidden in the first image. The estimated wheel position is output to at least one additional vehicle system.
