چکیده

Abstract: A system for real-time traffic sign detection is described in this paper. The vision-based traffic sign detection module developed in this work is intended for assisted driving of road vehicles by handling color images in RGB (Red, Green and Blue) format. In a first step a preattentive area of interest is determined based on the vertical projection of edge pixels. In a second step, a shape analysis is performed. In a third step, a color analysis is performed, and finally, a template is fitted. Some results obtained on a series of real road images are presented in order to illustrate the robustness of the detection system.

Road traffic sign detection and classification

A vision-based vehicle guidance system for road vehicles can have three main roles: 1) road detection; 2) obstacle detection; and 3) sign recognition. The first two have been studied for many years and with many good results, but traffic sign recognition is a less-studied field. Traffic signs provide drivers with very valuable information about the road, in order to make driving safer and easie...

A Real Time Traffic Sign Detection and Recognition Algorithm based on Super Fuzzy Set

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) benefit from current infrastructure to discern environmental information. Traffic signs are global guidelines which inform drivers from near characteristics of paths ahead. Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system is an ADAS that recognize traffic signs in images captured from road and show information as an adviser or transmit them to other ADASs. In this...

Re-usability of traffic signs for inactive drivers with consideration of personal characteristics and sign features

There has been an increasing concern about inactive drivers who would easily lead to road accidents and fatalities once return to driving. This study investigated the re-usability of traffic signs for inactive drivers with consideration of driver factors and cognitive sign features. Fifty-seven Hong Kong Chinese, who possessed a full driving license but had not driven for an extended period, co...

Computer Vision Systems for ‘context-aware’ Active Vehicle Safety and Driver Assistance

The last decade has witnessed the introduction of several driver assistance and active safety systems in modern vehicles. Considering only systems that depend on computer vision, several independent applications have emerged such as lane tracking, road/traffic sign recognition, and pedestrian/vehicle detection. Although these methods can assist the driver for lane keeping, navigation, and colli...

Fast Road Sign Detection Using Hough Transform for Assisted Driving of Road Vehicles

A system for real-time traffic sign detection is described in this paper. The system uses restricted Hough transform for circumferences in order to detect circular signs, and for straight lines for triangular ones. Some results obtained from a set of real road images captured under both normal and adverse weather conditions are presented as well in order to illustrate the robustness of the dete...
