چکیده
This report documents the work conducted for PATH Task Order 5200 – the evaluation of sensor technologies for pedestrian detection. A survey of recent and available sensor products were selected and evaluated to assess their applicability for vehicle-based solutions. The performance characteristics and limitations of various products and technological approaches were investigated. Subsequently, demonstrative experimental vehicle platforms and testing facilities were developed to illustrate the concept of vehicle infrastructure integration.

Pedestrian safety is a primary traffic issue in the urban environment. According to national traffic safety data, more than 4,000 fatalities were caused by pedestrian-vehicle collisions annually among the 40,000-plus total fatalities in all categories of collisions. Pedestrian crashes account for about 80,000 collisions per year, according to the General Estimate System (GES) data from 1995 to ...
متن کاملContextual Combination of Appearance and Motion for Intersection Videos with Vehicles and Pedestrians
Object detection and classification is challenging problem for vision-based intersection monitoring since traditional motion-based techniques work poorly when pedestrians or vehicles stop due to traffic signals. In this work, we present a method for vehicle and pedestrian recognition at intersections that benefits from both motion and appearance cues in video surveillance. Vehicle and pedestria...
