VEHICLE DETECTION AND COUNTING

Abstract: In an intelligent transportation system, a vehicle detection and counting system is critical, especially for traffic management. Using computer vision technology, proposes a video- based method for vehicle detection and counting. To find foreground objects in a video sequence, the proposed method employs background subtraction. Several computer vision techniques, such as thresholding, hole filling, and adaptive morphology operations, are then used to detect moving vehicles more accurately. Finally, a virtual detection zone is used to count the number of vehicles.
