There have been various research efforts for pedestrian recognition in embedded imaging systems. However, many suffer from their heavy computational complexities. SVM classification method has been widely used for pedestrian recognition. The reduction of candidate region is crucial for low-complexity scheme. In this paper, We propose a real time HOG based pedestrian detection system on GPU which images are captured by a pair of cameras. To speed up humans on road detection, the proposed method reduces a number of detection windows with disparity-search and near-search algorithm and uses the GPU and the NVIDIA CUDA framework. This method can be achieved speedups of 20% or more compared to the recent GPU implementations. The effectiveness of our algorithm is demonstrated in terms of the processing time and the detection performance.
