A PARALLEL PROCESSING MODEL FOR REAL-TIME COMPUTER VISION-AIDED ROAD TRAFFIC MONITORING
AT Ali, E.L. Dagless · Parallel Processing Letters · 1992
A transputer-based parallel processing paradjgm for real-time extraction of road traffic data from video images of roadway scenes is proposed. The model can monitor three lanes of motorway traffic in real-time by processing images from two windows associated with each lane. Parallel algorithms are distributed among a network of transputers to perform similar and/or different tasks concerning image data analysis and traffic data extraction. The model can be expanded to cover more lanes or duplicated to monitor a further multi-lane carriageway.
