This paper discusses results measurements carried out selected crossings using two different measurement grids. quality tested has been assessed based on force EU In addition, we present illuminance contrast board, representing silhouette crossing, with background. Based determined contrast, attempted verify conditions an evaluation described literature, which employs fuzzy logic algorithms.
