Comprehension of traffic signs is important to road safety. This review aims study the extent which users in different countries comprehend and identify ergonomic principles sign design can affect levels comprehension. We conducted an extensive literature dealing with comprehension public directed at any user. searched Journal articles indexed by Scopus, ScienceDirect, Web Science. The search i...

Traffic sign recognition through artificial intelligence tools is an attractive topic in the computer vision community for its clear applications in the automotive industry. This problem is a subset of the larger problem of improving safe driving through intelligent technologies that can recognize objects on the road and help drivers avoid hazardous situations. In this work we evaluated a numbe...

We present a real-time approach for circular and polygonal road signs detection in still images, regardless of their pose and orientation. Object detection is performed using a Hough like transform based on accumulation on pairs of points with their gradients. Circular and polygonal (non triangular) traffic signs are detected by the so-called Bilateral Chinese Transform BCT. Triangular traffic ...

8 1094-7167/03/$17.00 © 2003 IEEE IEEE INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS believe is the first on-road demonstration of autonomous passenger vehicles performing cooperative passing and traversal of unsignalized intersections. (Unsignalized intersections have no traffic lights, stop signs, or yield signs to control traffic flow.) This demonstration mated ICSL’s communication and collaborative decision-making s...

In post-unification Germany, lingering conflicts between East and West Germans have found some unusual outlets, including a debate of the relative superiority of East and West German 'Ampelmännchen' pedestrian traffic signs. In our study, we probed the visual efficacy of East and West German Ampelmännchen signs with a Stroop-like conflict task. We found that the distinctive East German man-with...
