Backing-up accidents are responsible for about 120 deaths and more than 6000 injuries every year in the US. IMRA-Europe has been working on a static obstacles detection system for a few years now. We propose to complement this with a system capable of detecting and localizing in real-time moving obstacles even when the vehicle is moving. This system is based on camera movement compensation using IPM (Inverse Perspective Mapping) and probabilistic reasoning for movement detection. Using shapefiltering our approach can even detect only specific types of moving objects (pedestrians, cars...). In this paper we present the algorithms developed, show some results of the system and conclude on which future developments will bring performance improvements.
