Monitoring and warning the expressway exit incidents is an effective way to prevent expressway accidents. This paper deals with illegal changing lanes and illegal parking behavior as the major incidents that should be monitored. In this paper, we introduce a system that aims to reduce the chance of traffic delay and traffic conflict and has put it into practice to test its effectiveness. According...
The highway is the inevitable outcome of the social and economic development. In recent years, with the rapid development of our economy, the growth of highway is becoming faster and faster. But the followed is a series of highway management issues. In view of the issues of poor vehicle control, the traditional parking charge as well as traffic jam brought by this, road toll in confusion, low level...
The traffic data collection system for floating car is composed of two important parts that are the car equipment and the monitoring system in the center. The hardware of car equipment is composed of ARM board, GPS module, GPRS communication module, memory card, power, USB interface, display interface, audio interface and so on. In the software system of car equipment, the methods for receiving GPS...
The problem of demand-responsive passenger transportation is a subject covered from different perspectives (such as planning, user interfaces, optimization problem, etc). This work is focused on the simulation of events occurring in real time. That is, as requests are generated by vehicle users and the planning moves forward in time events may occur that affect them so that there should be a re-planning...
ITS (Intelligent Transport System), which connects people, vehicles and roads by information and communication technologies, has been drawing much attention these days. Telematic services, in particular, have been deployed by domestic as well as foreign automobile companies in various ways. However, in most cases their services are intended to support drivers themselves. In the meantime, provision...
In the growth of population in world, people use vehicles like sedan and lorry to meet their comfort and necessity. This lead to heavy traffic, pollution etc. at the same time there is increase in traffic violation. In order to detect the violation by the driver, we have designed a tool. This tool is employed in the toll booth, so that it will monitor the vehicles which are moving. If any vehicle...
Video surveillance systems are commonly used by security personnel to monitor and record activity in buildings, public gatherings, busy roads, and parking lots. These systems allow many cameras to be observed by a small number of trained human operators but suffer from potential operator fatigue and lack of attention due to the large amount of information provided by cameras which can distract the...
The camera of traffic system takes numerous photos every day. It's critically important for judging kinds of car movements and intelligent transportation to pick up the outlines of automobiles and fix their positions. However, the popular car positioning algorithm is unable to reach the required fast speed in this field. In this paper we will provide readers with an algorithm to locate cars based...
This paper presents a solution of image mosaics for vehicle monitoring system. Image mosaics technology is used to create a wider field of view on the monitor screen. This paper discusses a new image mosaics method which can meet the demands for the application of the vehicle monitoring system. The new method adopts Harris and SIFT algorithms' advantages and improves the processing time.
In order to assist planning efforts for air pollution-responsive dynamic traffic management (DTM) systems, this research assesses the accuracy of local emissions monitoring based on traffic data and models. The study quantifies the benefits of increased data resolution for short-term emissions estimates at a signalized intersection. The emissions estimates are also compared with air quality measurements...
This paper presents an application of computer vision methods to traffic flow monitoring and road traffic analysis. The application utilizes image-processing and pattern recognition methods designed and modified to the needs and constrains of road traffic analysis. These methods combined together gives functional capabilities of the system to monitor the road, to initiate automated vehicle tracking,...
This paper proposes a new road traffic monitoring method based on image processing and particle filtering. The proposed method detects and classifies automatically moving vehicles in previously defined classes. The detected vehicles are tracked using a new particle filtering algorithm to determine their positions on the road at each time, and then the vehicle positions are used to estimate its trajectory...
The INTERSAFE-2 project aims to develop and demonstrate a Cooperative Intersection Safety System that is able to significantly reduce injury and fatal accidents at intersections. The cooperative sensor data fusion is based on state-of-the-art and advanced on-board sensors for object recognition and relative localisation, a standard navigation map and information from other road users, infrastructure...
In this paper, we propose a probabilistic method to model the dynamic traffic flow across non-overlapping camera views. By assuming the transition time of object movement follows a certain global model, we may infer the time-varying traffic status in the unseen region without performing explicit object correspondence between camera views. In this paper, we model object correspondence and parameter...
A multi-agent framework to remote diagnostics with the emphasis on automotive vehicles is discussed. An overview of existing work on intelligent agents is given, and key features of the multi-agent framework are listed. Two real-world illustrations of the proposed multi-agent system are provided.
This paper describes applications of sensor technology and ambient intelligence in intermodal transport. Monitoring goods and vehicle status using heterogeneous sensor networks can be seen as the next step in Fleet Management Solutions. In this work, we describe an intelligent ambient system developed in order to monitor multiple aspects related to vehicles and freight in real time, providing tools...
A novel sensor network configuration is introduced for traffic surveillance in Intelligent Transportation Systems. Distributed sensor nodes based on passive acoustic transducers are non intrusively/obtrusively deployed at motorway road-side to provide real-time traffic data collection for dynamic queue/jam detection. The system is capable to provide a complete real-time picture of traffic flow at...
In this paper we present an optimal omnidirectional visual sensor which can replace perspective camera network for traffic diagnosis. The proposed system has the advantage, by the number and the designed mirror, to generate a single view of the crown and junction ways of the crossroads by maximizing the number of useless pixels. So, the percentage of pixels utilized directly for subsequent phases...
We present a road monitoring and alert system implemented using a novel Geocache concept to enable efficient spatial monitoring in a mobile distributed sensing scenario. Technology trends have led to the integration of positioning, communications, and sensing capabilities into mobile entities such as cars and cellular phones, enabling them to monitor and report on their surroundings. We consider scenarios...
Embedded bus monitoring and fault diagnosis system, which was based on protocol SAE J1939 was designed in this paper. And this system took the 32-bit embedded one as a hardware platform, customized a WinCE6.0 operation system and used EVC as the tool to design the embedded application. The functions of CAN communication, protocol defamations etc were realized. Good human-computer interaction is developed...
