Abstract
A pedestrian collision warning system which makes a judgement of pedestrian's intention to help avoiding hitting accidents is proposed. This system uses the image sequences obtained from a car black box as well as vehicle's speed obtained from a GPS. It detects pedestrians, if any, based on the Histogram of Gradient method and extracts several information such as the pedestrian's relative positions, the direction of motion vectors, and distance between vehicle and pedestrian . A fuzzy logic based on these extracted information is applied to analyze the pedestrian's safety levels. When the safety level is determined to be danger, an alarm is triggered to the driver. The performance of the proposed algorithm is tested under various driving scenarios, which shows it works successfully in real-time.
