Abstract :
This article deals with the obstacle detection on a railway crossing (clearance detection). The presented detection is based on the optical flow estimation and classification of the flow vectors by K-means clustering algorithm. The optical flow is based on a modified Lucas-Kanade method. For testing of the developed methods a model was created and the results were verified on a real data.
