Detection Of Pedestrian Crossing For Safe Driving

Modern vehicle is equipped with autonomous features such as pre-collision system or adaptive cruise control to help people perform driving in a safer and more convenient way. Sudden pedestrian crossing is the major reason for many accidents on roads causes’ loss of civilians. To reduce these types of accidents we design early detection of sudden pedestrian crossing for safe driving. This project gives drivers assistance in night times.We focus on detecting SPCs at night for supporting an advanced driver assistance system using a far-infrared.This system includes far infrared camera and microcontroller. This FIR camera scans road from certain distance. When it scans an obstacle it detectsdirection of movement and speed of pedestrian.When the pedestrian crossing road the FIR camera detects the movement it gives the buzzer intimation to the driver for attention and also turn off the motor of vehicle.The video camera technology used in capturing visible light images is mature and cost effective therefore using visible light images for pedestrian detection under ideal lighting conditions.The all the process is controlled by microcontroller.Arranging this type of devices device in vehicles we can reduce collisions between pedestrians and vehicles.
