Night Time Vehicle Detection Using Tail Lights: A Survey
The main challenge during night-time driving is the visibility of the road ahead. The major challenge rests in controlling accidents during night as the night conditions differ from the day in environment conditions, vehicle lighting etc. The reduced cost of cameras and optical devices helped in installing front-mounted intelligent systems for identifying forward collision avoidance and mitigat...

متن کاملGlobal Night-Time Lights for Observing Human Activity
We present a concept for a small satellite mission to make systematic, global observations of night-time lights with spatial resolution suitable for discerning the extent, type and density of human settlements. The observations will also allow better understanding of fine scale fossil fuel CO2 emission distribution. The NASA Earth Science Decadal Survey recommends more focus on direct observati...
متن کاملThe Cognition of the City at Night
Human presence and accordingly establishing suitable condition for social interactions are important factors in shaping urban spaces. Caring to different aspects of improving environmental qualities especially perception aspect and ease of perception from the environment with legibility improvement is an element that was emphasized from the base of urban design. The role of time, commence of da...
متن کاملAll-sky Relative Opacity Mapping Using Night Time Panoramic Images
An all-sky cloud monitoring system that generates relative opacity maps over many of the world’s premier astronomical observatories is described. Photometric measurements of numerous background stars are combined with simultaneous sky brightness measurements to differentiate thin clouds from sky glow sources such as air glow and zodiacal light. The system takes a continuous pipeline of all-sky ...
