Distance and Speed Measurement using Stereo Analysis
M. Ugur Torun, Ahmet Özkurt · 2006
This study offers an alternative method for speed detection of the automobiles on a highway. The system we develop, captures live video from two cameras, meaning left and right, simultaneously and obtains the difference of the successive frames. Then, it converts the difference frame into a binary image using image processing techniques and calculates the center of mass. of this binary image. The distance information is calculated using stereo analysis and the difference information between mass centers of left and right frames. The speed of the moving object between t1and t2iS calculated using the difference of calculated distance datas and △t = t2- t1. The system performance is calculated as minimum 95%.
