Research of the Real-Time Detection of Traffic Flow Based on OpenCV

Zhang Lei, Xuefei Zhang, Liu Yin-ping · 2008

A vehicle detection algorithm was proposed based on the morphology and wavelet transform, in the context of the traditional difference. First, the background model was established, using statistical means of the rapid sequence. As background to transform the impact of light obviously, the corresponding easy and quick to update the background algorithm was used. Using the background of the video images to do background subtraction, and then images of the vehicles were accurate detection of mathematical morphology and wavelet transform. A video vehicle detection system was developed using visual C++6.0 and OpenCV image and development kits. A highway traffic flow has been detected by a background extraction, image filtering, image binary, morphological transformation, vehicle detection and segmentation methods and steps. To achieve some highway traffic flow analysis, results showed that: the system to identify the correct rate of more than 98 percent, satisfying the requirements of practical applications.
