An Intelligent Night Vision System for Automobiles
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an intelligent night vision system for automobiles in this paper. This system, implemented mainly by adopting infrared cameras and computer vision techniques, aims at enhancing safety and convenience of night driving by providing functionalities such as adaptive night vision, road sign detection and recognition, scene zooming and spotlight projection. We have tested the system in both simulated laboratory environments and in field highway environments. Initial results show the feasibility of constructing such a system.
