Abstract
Pedestrian-vehicle accidents account for about one third of the total automotive related fatality and injury. So the inclusion of pedestrian protection systems such as external airbags is being consider as a solution to preventing pedestrian fatality and injury. However, such systems require knowledge of pedestrian presence for correct activation. In this work, it proposes the pedestrian recognition technique for considering three-dimensional information based on the image obtained from right and left cameras set up in the vehicle. These techniques are applied to the road scene images, and the confirmation and the verification of effectiveness are performed.
