Development of Nighttime Visibility Assessment System for road using a Low Light Camera

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 6

Abstract

Although the numbers of traffic accidents and fatalities in Korea have been decreased constantly, traffic accidents during night time have not been decreased. Thus, it is necessary to conduct comprehensive studies that can investigate, analyze, and assess the visibility environment of drivers in order to ensure safety in roads during nighttime. The purpose of this study is to develop the technology of acquiring and analyzing the nighttime driving environment in roads from driver's viewpoints. For this purpose, this study suggests a nighttime visibility assessment system that can quantify suitability. To do this, this study defined driver's visibility and selected effectiveness scale thereby developing an assessment model that reflected driver's level of recognition. The suggested system is developed consisting of two parts: the investigation device using a low light cameraequipped with investigation program and the web-based assessment program utilizing the document database. In the future, verification on the system will be conducted under various drivers’ visual environments and pilot field application will be planned to improve accuracy of assessment on nighttime road visibility based on the system.
