METHOD FOR DETECTING A TARGET OBJECT BASED ON A CAMERA IMAGE BY CLUSTERING FROM MULTIPLE ADJACENT IMAGE CELLS, CAMERA DEVICE AND MOTOR VEHICLE

The invention relates to a method for detecting a target object (5a, 5b, 5c) in an environmental region of a camera based on an image (7) of the environmental region provided by means of the camera by determining a plurality of characteristic features in the image (7), wherein it is differentiated b...

Summary:The invention relates to a method for detecting a target object (5a, 5b, 5c) in an environmental region of a camera based on an image (7) of the environmental region provided by means of the camera by determining a plurality of characteristic features in the image (7), wherein it is differentiated between ground features and target features; by dividing at least a partial region (12) of the image (7) in a plurality of image cells (13) and examining to each image cell (13) whether the image cell (13) includes a ground feature or a target feature; by classifying those image cells (13), which include a target feature, as target cells (13b) and those image cells (13), which include a ground feature, as ground cells (13a) and by detecting the target object (5a, 5b, 5c) by combining a plurality of adjacent image cells (13) to a target cluster considering both the target cells (13b) and the ground cells (13a).
