Abstract |
: |
This study aims at the development of a system for the visual monitoring of traffic
and the determination of the actual speeds of moving vehicles. This system employs
several modern technologies including those of photography via digital video cameras
and analysis of photos. The goal of the system is to establish an alternative technology
that should replace the current radar technology, thanks to the several merits enjoyed
by the new technology such as precision and efficiency of operation and possibility
for a multitude of utilizations. The basic goal of the system is the assessment of
speeds of moving vehicles through the analysis of successive video photos, as well as
the recording of events for future display when the need arises. The system allows for
great flexibility in its application. It can be used in monitoring roads, controlling the
flow of traffic, taking snapshots or photographs for traffic accidents as well as
criminal activities, and monitoring and recording entry and exit of vehicles from
important sites.
The system is adaptable for work under various atmospheric conditions and has a
continuous availability for 24 hours per day. The system is remotely controlled from
control and command rooms (operation rooms), within cities, wherein photos are
either directly transmitted via the Internet or temporarily stored at the camera's site.
To achieve this, the system employs the most modern types of digital cameras and
links these cameras with the main servers. As a result, the system can help in
detecting traffic and criminal violations, and in identifying those who commit such
violations. The system might contribute to organizing traffic flow and spotting
crowded roads and squares that jam and obstruct traffic resulting in prohibitively
lengthy queues. The system has a role in reducing the size of security personnel to be
deployed into city and inter-city roads.
To achieve this, it is necessary to have central control rooms that supervise and make
appropriate decisions for these roads. The system offers a means for documenting and
retrieving pertinent information for all types of accidents by recording such
information and storing it in high-capacity storage media. The applications necessary
for implementing the system were designed and written in terms of the programming
language: Microsoft visual C#.net. The results and outputs were saved within the
database of the MS SQL Server. We have also studied the various characteristics and
features of digital cameras and methods for operating them. After implementing the
system, we have executed several field samples, and recorded the results after
analyzing and manipulating them. Thereupon, we extracted the statistics and indices
for the system effectiveness. |
