Abstract: A platform for visualization of traffic information at an observed roadway or traffic intersection converts data collected from sensors for rendering as dynamic animations on a virtual map of the observed roadway or traffic intersection. The platform parses and curates incoming sensor data from either a single or multiple sensors representing one or more objects at the observed roadway or traffic intersection, and translates at least location data of each object for correlation of the object's movement relative to the observed roadway or traffic intersection. The platform then generates dynamic animations of the movement of each object and displays the animations as an overlay on the virtual map.

Abstract: A framework for precision traffic analysis estimates vehicle queue length at an observed roadway and calculates vehicle delay for improvements in traffic flow efficiency at a corresponding traffic intersection. The framework identifies a traffic detection area for a roadway at or near the traffic intersection and detects objects in the traffic detection area from sensors located proximate to the roadway. The framework then analyzes sensor data to determine the efficiency of the traffic network and to determine adjustments to timing of various phases of the signal timing plan for the traffic intersection.

Abstract: A framework for precision traffic analysis estimates dilemma zone activity to dynamically adjust phase cycle timing for improved efficiency of traffic flow at a roadway intersection. The framework identifies a traffic detection area at or near a traffic intersection, and detects objects in the traffic detection area from sensors located proximate to the traffic intersection. The framework then correlates lapsed phase cycle times for the traffic signal with associations between object characteristics and known speed characteristics for the roadway for a determination of whether there is dilemma zone activity for the remainder of that phase cycle. The framework then determines whether to adjust a timing of the current phase cycle.

Abstract: An augmented reality visualization framework for precision traffic analysis combines traffic data with content representative of physical-world characteristics, such as conditions in an intersection or roadway in which traffic activity occurs, and images of the intersection and roadway itself. The framework includes a visualization platform that enables display of the combined traffic data and content representing physical-world characteristics, and continual augmentations of such information in response to adjustments directed by users or automatically detected from actions such as user movement, other user manipulation, or movement of the visualization platform itself. The framework enables traffic applications such that a user can, when the platform is interfaced with intersection or roadway equipment, adjust machine activity or signal timing based upon the visualizations or data presented via the visualization platform.

Abstract: A framework for precision traffic analysis combines traffic sensor data from multiple sensor types, combining the strengths of each sensor type within various conditions in an intersection or roadway in which traffic activity occurs. The framework calibrates coordinate systems in images taken of the same area by multiple sensors, so that fields of view from one sensor system are transposed onto fields of view from other sensor systems to fuse the images taken into a combined detection zone, and so that objects are properly detected and classified for enhanced traffic signal control.

Abstract: Pedestrian detection and counting for traffic intersection control analyzes characteristics of a field of view of a traffic detection zone to determine a location and size of a pedestrian area, and applies protocols for evaluating pixel content in the field of view to identify individual pedestrians. The location and size of a pedestrian area is determined based either on locations of vehicle and bicycle detection areas or on movement of various objects within the field of view. Automatic pedestrian speed calibration with a region of interest for pedestrian detection is accomplished using lane and other intersection markings in the field of view. Detection and counting further includes identifying a presence, volume, velocity and trajectory of pedestrians in the pedestrian area of the traffic detection zone.

Abstract: A multi-object zonal traffic detection framework analyzes temporal and spatial information from one or more sensors in a classification engine that identifies and differentiates objects within a single identified traffic detection zone. The classification engine applies a whole scene analysis and an adaptive background zone detection model to classify cars, trucks, bicycles, pedestrians, incidents, and other objects within the single identified traffic detection zone and generates counts for each object type for traffic system management.
