An Intelligent Monitoring System of Vehicles on Highway Traffic
Vehicle speed monitoring and management of highways is the critical problem
of the road in this modern age of growing technology and population. A poor
management results in frequent traffic jam, traffic rules violation and fatal
road accidents. Using traditional techniques of RADAR, LIDAR and LASAR to
address this problem is time-consuming, expensive and tedious. This paper
presents an efficient framework to produce a simple, cost efficient and
intelligent system for vehicle speed monitoring. The proposed method uses an HD
(High Definition) camera mounted on the road side either on a pole or on a
traffic signal for recording video frames. On the basis of these frames, a
vehicle can be tracked by using radius growing method, and its speed can be
calculated by calculating vehicle mask and its displacement in consecutive
frames. The method uses pattern recognition, digital image processing and
mathematical techniques for vehicle detection, tracking and speed calculation.
The validity of the proposed model is proved by testing it on different
highways.Comment: 5 page
Optimisation of Mobile Communication Networks - OMCO NET
The mini conference “Optimisation of Mobile Communication Networks” focuses on advanced methods for search and optimisation applied to wireless communication networks. It is sponsored by Research & Enterprise Fund Southampton Solent University.
The conference strives to widen knowledge on advanced search methods capable of optimisation of wireless communications networks. The aim is to provide a forum for exchange of recent knowledge, new ideas and trends in this progressive and challenging area. The conference will popularise new successful approaches on resolving hard tasks such as minimisation of transmit power, cooperative and optimal routing
A generic model for camera based intelligent road crowd control
Traffic flow control is often a big problem in many big cities in the world, especially during the peak and off-peak hours. Researchers are trying to find the optimal solution to solve this daily problem. Often, the problem is caused by the poor traffic signal light control system. Improper placement of the signal light and timing is the main issue. The problem can be solved by proper time management for the traffic signal through the congested and often over crowded areas. This research proposes a model for intelligent traffic flow control by implementing camera based surveillance and feedback system. A series of cameras are set minimum three signals ahead from the target junction. The complete software system is developed to help integrating the multiple camera on road as feedback to the signal light control systems.Keywords: surveillance; traffic flow; network; vehicles
