Abstract

One of the main dangerous specially in high speeds that threaten the life of drivers, is this fact that human reaction is low and in comparison with high velocity of moving vehicles in some special conditions such as in freeways, it will be lower. So, driver would not have enough time to react and it causes some bad accidents. What you will see in this paper, is a new method and system that can estimate differential velocity and distance of a vehicle that it is situated, from other car that is moving head of the mentioned car. Whereas our system is based on image processing, first a summary of done research and works in traffic control that uses image processing, will be presented. Then new method will be explained. And we look at a background method that proposed method is based on it and at last we will see the advantages and limitation of this method and discuss about the result of experiments.
