Vision-based Lane Departure Warning Systems (LDWS) depend on pavement marking tracking to determine that vehicles perform unintended drifts out of the travel lanes. Thus, it is expected that the performances of these LDWS be influenced by the visibility of the pavement markings. This research investigates the effects of the colors of pavement and lane marking on the performance of a lane departure warning system. The performance of the system was tested on highway sections of different facility types and with pavement and marking of varying types and attributes. The results obtained from the project activities should help improving the performance of lane departure warning systems and providing guidelines regarding the effects of pavement marking practices and standards on the performance of these systems. |
