Abstract:The goal of the T-Scan project is to develop a data processing module for a novel LiDAR-based traffic scanner to collect highly accurate microscopic traffic data at road intersections. T-Scan uses Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology that can detect and track various types of road users, including buses, cars, pedestrians, and bicycles; and, unlike video detection, it does not experience the well-known occlusion problem. Moreover, LiDAR data has a one-to-one correspondence with the physical world, which makes it possible in principle to produce the positions and velocities of road users in real-time as needed for traffic and safety applications, with the errors of estimation dependent only on the resolution and accuracy of the LiDAR sensor.
