Abstract:
Pedestrians and cyclists suffer the most serious injuries in traffic accidents. Existing Pedestrian Protection Systems and Road Safety Systems rely on an ideal model of pedestrian behavior and do not consider that people tend to take shortcuts, appear at unexpected places or can be distracted on the road, for example, by using a smartphone or wearing headphones. Collecting and analyzing realistic road user behavior is a crucial component to improve pedestrian and cyclist safety. However, such real-world data is still missing. To address this, we propose a visual surveillance system with two perpendicular partially overlapping fields of view, combined with a fully automated deep learning-based pipeline to process and collect video observations, detect and extract road user trajectories in real-world coordinates and estimate human attributes, such as age, gender, smartphone usage, etc. We demonstrate our prototype by deploying it in two locations in a European city.
