Abstract

AbstractRecent progress in video-based vehicle sensors allows for a detailed observation of road users on intersections in urban areas. By combining the measured real-life traffic situation with thorough traffic simulations, a cooperative system design for the dynamic management of traffic flow including vehicle platoons is possible. In this chapter, we describe our video-based traffic flow estimation system that we installed at a three-way intersection in the small city of Hallein, Austria. We show that the installed system is able to collect comprehensive information about the traffic situation in near real time, and that this information can be used to estimate traffic density and flows of cars and trucks with high precision.
