Traffic Surveillance System Based on Computer Vision and its Application

In this paper we propose a real-time traffic surveillance system using computer vision for tracking multiple vehicles from roadway images. We design an application program to monitor increasing congestion on roadway and problems. The application program is developed based on OpenCV library functions for the computer vision of the proposed monitoring algorithm. Our system sends traffic surveillance status to driver using GSM network. Additionally, we obtained the implementation of traffic monitoring system by using LED (Light-Emitting Diode) matrix display.
