For safe driving in parking lots, differentiating the few moving vehicles from the many parked is essential but also challenging. Vehicles tend to move at slow speeds in parking areas and, therefore, low-cost sensors including cameras and radars cannot detect their motion using conventional object-localization and speed-measurement methods. This paper presents a novel method of detecting motion of a target vehicle by equating it to rotation of the vehicle's wheels. Using a monocular 2MP camera, the algorithm is demonstrated to detect motion as slow as 0.1 mph at distances of up to 30 meters away while the host vehicle itself moves at speeds up to 15 mph. Test results also promise an easy and cost-effective path to further increasing the range of the algorithm.
