Smart Cars and Smart Roads

This paper describes two projects applying computer vision to intelligent vehicle highway systems (IVHS). The first project has resulted in the development of a system for monitoring traffic scenes using video information. The objective is to estimate traffic parameters and detect quickly disruptive incidents. The second project is aimed at developing vision as a sensor technology for vehicle control using binocular stereopsis.
