Vehicle and method for avoiding a collision of a vehicle with one or more obstacles

Abstract

According to various aspects, a vehicle may include: one or more image sensors configured to provide sensor image data representing a sensor image of a vicinity of the vehicle; one or more processors configured to determine one or more obstacles from the sensor image data, the one or more obstacles corresponding to one or more image objects of the sensor image, determine a distance from ground for each of the one or more obstacles based its corresponding image object, and trigger a safety operation when the distance from ground is equal to or less than a safety height associated with the vehicle.

1 . A vehicle, comprising:
 one or more cameras configured to provide a camera image of a vicinity of the vehicle along a driving lane;
 one or more processors configured to
 determine, from the camera image, one or more obstacles disposed over the driving lane; 
 determine a clearance height for each of the one or more obstacles based on one or more image objects from the camera image associated with the one or more obstacles, and 
 trigger a safety operation when the clearance height is equal to or less than a safety height associated with the vehicle.
