This paper presents techniques for visual sensing in uncalibrated environments for intelligent vehicle-highway system applications. In particular, it describes a robust scheme for detection of transportation objects, focusing on the computational issues that occur when developing real-time IVHS applications. It then highlights a feature window selection scheme that automatically determines which features are worthwhile for use in visual tracking. Next, it discusses tracking the visual motion of a vehicle or a pedestrian. The paper concludes with a presentation of results from feasibility experiments for the selected IVHS applications.
