Single camera vehicles speed measurement
Abbas Dehghani, Ali Parsayan · 2013
Image and video processing techniques are one of the commonly used methods for traffics monitoring. This paper investigates the image processing techniques based vehicles speed measurement issue using only a fixed single camera. Therefore, a geometrical calculation based method is proposed. Based on this method, first a moving vehicle is detected in a video background and then the vehicle speed is estimated based on some geometrical calculations. A comparison is made between this method and two other same case vehicles speed measurement methods for evaluation. The simulations results on 160×112 pixels real recorded video images shows the average vehicles speed error less than %10.
