Experimental traffic sign detection using I2V communication

A traffic sign recognition (TSR) system is a driver assistance tool that automatically recognizes traffic signs placed along the road. Such a system can disburden the driver by this task and can significantly increase traffic safety, by warning the driver about them. This system is part of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), systems that have the goal to improve road safety. In this paper, we present an experimental system that uses an Infrastructure to Vehicles (I2V) communication for recognizing the traffic signs. Using the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology, it identifies the traffic signals on the road and, through a Human Machine Interface (HMI), the system warns the driver about it.
