University of Missouri researchers are leveraging lidar and AI to improve road safety, particularly for pedestrians and cyclists. This innovative method aims to enhance driver awareness and reduce accidents by analyzing interactions at traffic signals. The study, led by Associate Professor Yaw Adu-Gyamfi, highlights the potential of this technology in understanding road user behavior.
The research utilizes a single lidar unit to create a 3D view of traffic interactions, optimizing existing methods for better accuracy. This technology could revolutionize how vehicles communicate with traffic systems, potentially integrating with autonomous vehicles. Addressing challenges like data processing and weather conditions will be crucial for widespread implementation.
• Lidar and AI improve understanding of pedestrian and vehicle interactions.
• Optimized lidar technology enhances traffic safety and accident prevention.
Lidar uses lasers to create 3D views of objects, aiding in traffic analysis.
AI algorithms classify objects like pedestrians and vehicles for improved safety.
This method enhances visibility of objects in lidar data, improving detection accuracy.
