Finding Lane Lines on the Road
The goals / steps of this project are the following:
- Make a pipeline that finds lane lines on the road
- Reflect on your work in a written report
1. Describe your pipeline. As part of the description, explain how you modified the draw_lines() function.
My pipeline consisted of 5 steps.
- Convert the images to grayscale
- Apply Guassian filter for blurring the image to have smother transition
- Apply Canny filter to create black and white image given the threshold
- Apply Mask to get the region of interest
- Apply Hough transform to get the lines for joining the pixels
If you'd like to include images to show how the pipeline works, here is how to include an image:
Couple of potential shortcomings are:
- Curvature of road is not being taken into consideration
- The basic assumption is that the road and lines are distictively different
- There might be an issue when there is a white car close to the camera
A possible improvement would be to ...
- The lines should be traced only until certain angle[horizontal lines can be ignored]
