Smart Cars and Smart Roads

چکیده
This paper describes two projects applying computer vision to Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems. The first project has resulted in the development of a system for monitoring traffic scenes using video information. The objective is to estimate traffic parameters such as flow rates, speeds and link travel times, as well as to detect quickly disruptive incidents such as stalled vehicles and accidents. The second project is aimed at developing vision as a sensor technology for vehicle control. The novel feature of this project, compared to most previous approaches, is the extensive use of binocular stereopsis. First, it provides information for obstacle detection, grouping, and range estimation which is directly used for longitudinal control. Secondly, the obstacle-ground separation enables robust localization of partially occluded lane boundaries as v/ell as the dynamic update of camera rig parameters to deal with vibrations and vertical road curvature.

Proponents of Int,elligent Vehicle/Highway System or IVHS see it as a new technology which will make a major change in highway transportation. Control, communication and computing technologies will be combined into an IVHS system that can significantly increase safety and highway capacity without new roads having to be built. This paper outlines key features of one highly aut,omated IVHS system...
متن کاملAutomated Smart Car Parking System
A city like Bengaluru has over millions of cars and two-wheelers on its roads but it does not have enough parking space. So, a system like “Automated Smart Car Parking” must be introduced so that it solves parking space problem and reduces time required in searching for parking space. This proposed system introduces us to one of the most efficient methods of car parking. This is done by designi...
