Abstract:With the development of ITS applications, automated pedestrian detectors are beginning to compliment the existing pushbutton detectors. These applications optimize intersection operations and improve safety by reducing the conflicts between vehicles and pedestrians. Similarly, bicycle detectors are being used to provide detection inputs to traffic signals for call and extend functions.
These sensor have been developed using a variety of technologies, including microwave, infrared, video and inductive loops. This report documents the current state of pedestrian and bicycle detection and presents evaluation results from a field test conducted of six different bicycle/pedestrian sensors.
