Abstract:
Computerized methods are performable by a driver assistance system while the host vehicle is moving. The driver assistance system includes a camera connectible to a processor. First and second image frames are captured from the field of view of the camera. Corresponding image points of the road are tracked from the first image frame to the second image frame. Image motion between the corresponding image points of the road is processed to detect a hazard in the road. The corresponding image points are determined to be of a moving shadow cast on the road to avoid a false positive detection of a hazard in the road or the corresponding image points are determined not to be of a moving shadow cast on the road to verify detection of a hazard in the road.

Claim (Index 34):
The system of  claim 33 , wherein the processor is further configured to perform the associating by matching the computed distances to the hypothetical moving shadow with the computed distances to the moving vehicle, thereby confirming the hypothesis that the image motion is due to the moving shadow cast from the moving vehicle.
