Barred Area Detector

[fabolhak]

Barred areas should be detected in order avoid them. The detector should be robust against noise (other street markings) and computationally cheap.

More infos in carolocups rules (section "5.3.6.3 Barred Area").

tasks CC19

• design and print pattern (so that we can easily apply and remove it from the track)
• record some data with the pattern
• develop detector
• validate detector on a bag with different scenarios

task CC20

• Evaluate approach from CC19, which is with SVM.
• Try to add barred areas and street markings into object detection (https://github.com/tum-phoenix/drive_project_management/issues/15)
• Try a different approach if nessary.
• Check if the car can pass barred areas, safely

SVM-based approaches for this found to be working well. Move to https://github.com/tum-phoenix/drive_ros_street_marker_detection
