Abstract
We propose a method of judging fog density by using in-vehicle camera images and millimeter-wave (mm-W) radar data. This method determines fog density by evaluating both the visibility of a preceding vehicle and the distance to it. Experiments revealed that judgments made by the proposed method achieved an 85% precision rate compared to that mode by human subjects
