Book Improving Stop Line Detection Using Video Imaging Detectors

Download or read book Improving Stop Line Detection Using Video Imaging Detectors written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Texas Department of Transportation and other state departments of transportation as well as cities nationwide are using video detection successfully at signalized intersections. However, operational issues with video imaging vehicle detection systems (VIVDS) products occur at some locations. The resulting issues vary but have included: camera contrast loss resulting in max-recall operation, failure to detect vehicles leading to excessive delay and red-light violations, and degraded detection accuracy during nighttime hours. This research resulted in the development of a formalized VIVDS test protocol and a set of performance measures that agencies can incorporate in future purchase orders and use to uniformly evaluate VIVDS products. It also resulted in the development of a VIVDS video library and conceptual plans for a field laboratory for future projects to deploy a range of VIVDS products at an operational signalized intersection. Researchers evaluated alternative VIVDS stop line detection designs and developed methods for enhancing the operation of VIVDS through adjustments in controller settings for day versus night versus transition periods, zone placement, and camera placement.

Book Evaluation of Video Detection Systems and Development of Application Guidelines at Signalized Intersections

Download or read book Evaluation of Video Detection Systems and Development of Application Guidelines at Signalized Intersections written by PeiFeng Fu and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the results of a study on evaluating three major video imaging vehicle detection systems (VIVDS) currently deployed in Nevada's urban areas. The report first provides a brief review of the features and functions of some major VIVDSs. The evaluation was based on videos collected at selected intersections in both Northern Nevada and Southern Nevada. The dataset included a total of 10 intersections consisting of 30 intersection approaches and about 48 hours of video for each approach. These videos were directly recorded with detection overlays from the VIVDSs at the sites. The detection accuracy was later verified manually by watching video playbacks in the lab. The performance of the VIVDS was assessed based on the accuracy level, taking into account the total missed and false detections. Missed and false detections were the two major sources of error considered in this study. Specific detection errors and possible causes were discussed for each site. Recommendations were provided for potentially reducing video detection errors. A set of guidelines were also provided for improving VIVDS' performance at existing intersections or future deployments.

Book Evaluation of Vehicle Detection Systems for Traffic Signal System Operations

Download or read book Evaluation of Vehicle Detection Systems for Traffic Signal System Operations written by Riannon L. Zender and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typical vehicle detection systems used in traffic signal operations are comprised of inductive loop detectors. Because of costs, installation challenges, and operation and maintenance issues, many alternative "non-intrusive" systems have been developed and are now commercially available. Field-testing was conducted to evaluate eight alternative vehicle detection systems (four video, one radar, one infrared, and two hybrid) at the stop bar zone of a signalized intersection under six conditions: (a) daytime, (b) nighttime, (c) favorable conditions, (d) windy conditions, (e) rain, and (f) snow. With several exceptions, performance generally degraded in nighttime when compared with day light conditions, and in adverse versus favorable weather conditions. In general, radar and hybrid systems performed with the greatest accuracy.

Book ITS Sensors and Architectures for Traffic Management and Connected Vehicles

Download or read book ITS Sensors and Architectures for Traffic Management and Connected Vehicles written by Lawrence A. Klein and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intelligent transportation system (ITS) offers considerable opportunities for increasing the safety, efficiency, and predictability of traffic flow and reducing vehicle emissions. Sensors (or detectors) enable the effective gathering of arterial and controlled-access highway information in support of automatic incident detection, active transportation and demand management, traffic-adaptive signal control, and ramp and freeway metering and dispatching of emergency response providers. As traffic flow sensors are integrated with big data sources such as connected and cooperative vehicles, and cell phones and other Bluetooth-enabled devices, more accurate and timely traffic flow information can be obtained. The book examines the roles of traffic management centers that serve cities, counties, and other regions, and the collocation issues that ensue when multiple agencies share the same space. It describes sensor applications and data requirements for several ITS strategies; sensor technologies; sensor installation, initialization, and field-testing procedures; and alternate sources of traffic flow data. The book addresses concerns related to the introduction of automated and connected vehicles, and the benefits that systems engineering and national ITS architectures in the US, Europe, Japan, and elsewhere bring to ITS. Sensor and data fusion benefits to traffic management are described, while the Bayesian and Dempster–Shafer approaches to data fusion are discussed in more detail. ITS Sensors and Architectures for Traffic Management and Connected Vehicles suits the needs of personnel in transportation institutes and highway agencies, and students in undergraduate or graduate transportation engineering courses.

Book Video Library for Video Imaging Detection at Intersection Stop Lines

Download or read book Video Library for Video Imaging Detection at Intersection Stop Lines written by Dan Middleton and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this activity was to record video that could be used for controlled evaluation of video image vehicle detection system (VIVDS) products and software upgrades to existing products based on a list of conditions that might be difficult to find in a timely manner. This library allows the user to present a wide range of weather, roadway, and lighting conditions to a VIVDS product in real time. The idea involves capturing the video and playing the recorded video through a VIVDS processor to determine the accuracy or change in accuracy to compare against a test protocol and/or verify claims of manufacturers. The test conditions include situations that are not easily obtainable and that might be particularly challenging for current detectors.
