The paper investigates two passive optical sensors based on polarisation and spectral contrast for location of a road in an imaged scene. The techniques rely on pre-detector processing, utilising information that is discarded by conventional imagers. The results demonstrate the potential advantages of this approach are both increased sensitivity and reduction in the processing requirements compared to more conventional image processing approaches.
