Introduction

This Repository consists of code to estimate Lane curvature from front view images captured from a car. The code uses openCV library to process the image and overlay the output. This can be implemented in real time using a live camera feed by changing cameraFeed=True

Dependencies

This project is built with the below given major frameworks and libraries. The code is primarily based on python. And the environment is created using Anaconda.

• Python
• Anaconda
• openCV
• numpy
• Pickle

Prerequisites

1. Python 3.7 (skip if downloading conda)
2. Conda (Either miniconda or Ananconda)

Run the code

Simply clone the repo cd into the right directory and run code using the below commands. Step-by-Step instructions given below. Simply change the directory and run agent.py from the directory RL_car_game. You will be able to see the agent training and getting better in minutes.

1. Clone the repository using

   git clone https://github.com/sudharsan-007/opencv-lane-detection.git

2. cd into the directory opencv-lane-detection

   cd opencv-lane-detection

3. Recommended: create a conda environment

   # We require python>=3.7
   conda create -n cv2_lane_detection python=3.7 numpy 
   conda activate cv2_lane_detection

4. Install pickle (Skip if import pickle works)

   pip install pickle4

5. Install openCV-python. Please refer openCV website.

   # https://docs.opencv.org/4.x/d6/d00/tutorial_py_root.html
   pip install opencv-python

6. If the above code does not work for you try this(skip this step 5 worked).

   conda install -c conda-forge opencv

7. Add video that you want lane detection to run on in the same directory.

8. Change the directory name inside the python file LaneDetection.py and Run LaneDetection.py from this directory and from inside this environment.

   python LaneDetection.py
