چکیده
Pedestrians are important yet vulnerable road users, especially in urban environments. Traffic accidents involving pedestrians usually lead to serious injuries or fatalities. From an application’s point of view, pedestrian detection can be used for traffic flow monitoring, intelligent pedestrian crossing or on-board vehicle for driver assistance. From the technology’s point view, different sensing technologies such as piezoelectric sensor, ultrasonic sensor, microwave radar, laser scanner and computer vision can be used for pedestrian detection. We have carried out an extensive review of existing literature and latest developments in related fields. The review is summarized below and categorized according to technology types.

متن کاملDeveloping a Sense of Place by Humanizing Public Pedestrian Precincts
This research paper lays stress on philosophies of human desire. All the human being has some psychical need in addition to physical needs. And to satisfy the psychical needs, there is a need for stimulants, more in case of exclusive pedestrian precincts. Having exclusively Pedestrian precincts/Cores in city design draws its inspiration from the fact that public zones, accessible to majority of...
