SYSTEM AND METHOD USING COMPLEX CENTROIDS FOR DETECTING OBJECT-OF-INTEREST SPEEDS FROM TWO DIMENSIONAL PICTURES

Last updated:

Abstract:

A traffic monitoring system includes a first car moving on a first path; a camera having a field of vision including at least a portion of the first path; and a computing system. The computing system receives a plurality of images from the camera. The computing system has a processor. When instructed, the processor performs circling a perimeter of the first car on each of the images with a first rectangle; composing a first set of points, each point of the first set of points representing a center of the first rectangle; finding a first centroid using the first set of points, wherein the first centroid represents the first path; and calculating a speed of the first car using the first centroid.
