Abstract

The availability of a range image processing systems has made automatic traffic image analysis a viable proposition. The industrial take-up of image processing technology for traffic monitoring and control has been slow. One reason can be attributed to the high costs generally associated with digital image processing systems. Recent advances in digital computer and solidstate camera technology have resulted in falling equipment costs on the one hand and dramatic increase in performance on the other. This paper examines some of the methods and strategies adopted by the authors in applying video imaging technology to traffic analysis. A custom hardware solution is presented. The design methodology and system architecture is described.
