Fei Ming Tong, Lei Xu · Applied Mechanics and Materials · 2012
Traffic accident has already become a significant social problem. Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is vital to improve the vehicle safety. As an important part of ITS, vehicle detection has been widespread concern. This paper presents a vehicle detection algorithm based on binocular stereovision and edge extraction: analyze spatial coordinate feature belong to object point and detect obstacle points; segment Region of Interest; apply symmetry to detect vehicle. The experimental results indicate that the algorithm possess high efficiency and accuracy.
