Sensor fusion method based on millimeter-wave radar profile and stereo camera disparity histogram

It is known that millimeter-wave radar has a high range resolution. For separating pedestrians from vehicles at far distance, a sensor is also desired a higher angle resolution. This paper proposed a sensor fusion method which combines the radar power profile with the disparity histogram from stereo camera which has a much high angle resolution. Using the combined new feature, the fusion sensor can achieve a high angle resolution. The evaluation experiments show that pedestrians at the distance of 40m are successfully separated from nearby cars.
