A new concept of video-based virtual rail for vehicle navigation on pre-scheduled paths is proposed. The virtual rail uses skylines, which represent silhouettes of roadside objects against the sky, as landmarks for vehicle navigation in suburban residential areas. A video-based virtual rail is composed of skylines and the corresponding road locations. By matching the current skylines with the virtual rail, current vehicle location can be determined. Preliminary experimental results show that the longitudinal spatial resolution of one meter can be achieved.
