Real Time Traffic Sign Recognition Using Integrated Camera Sensors and YOLOV8 Algorithm

Abstract

Traffic signs are an important element in maintaining smoothness and safety on the road. However, there are still many drivers who violate them, causing various negative impacts. Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) is a technology that has the ability to detect and identify various types of traffic signs by utilizing artificial intelligence in the computer vision domain. TSR has been applied in various vehicle applications, such as Advance Driver Assistance System (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving System (ADS). This system is made by integrating camera sensors with the YOLOv8 algorithm which has high accuracy and fast data processing. The data used were 2093 images and annotated through Roboflow. Then the data is trained through Google Collaboratory with a mAP evaluation result of 95.5% which shows that the system can detect objects accurately. The level of precision and success of the model in detecting objects is 93.5% and the success is 93.3%. The results of system testing can use images, videos, and through cameras in real time.
