TECHNICAL SPECIFlCATION
MACHINE VISION VEHICLE DETECTION SYSTEM
. 1. GENERAL
This Specification sets forth the minimum requirements for a system that monitors vehicles on a roadway via processing of video images and provides detector outputs to a traffic controller.
1.1 System Hardware .
The system shall consist of one to four synchronous television (CCTV} camera(s~ or other
synchronous video source(s), an automatic control unit (ACU, a supervisor computer and an RGB
video monitor.
1.2 System Software
The system shall be able to detect vehicles in multiple traffic lanes. A maximum of 40 detection
zones shall be user-definable through interactive graphics by placing lines and/or boxes in an
image on a video monitor. The user shall be able to redefine previously defined detection zones.
2. FUNCTIONAL CAPABILITIES
2.1 Real-Time Vehicle Detection
2.1.1 The ACU shall be capable of simultaneously processing information from a maximum of four (4)
synchronous video sources including CCTV video cameras and video tape players. The video shall be digitized and analyzed at a rate of 30 times per second.
2.1.2 The system shall be able to detect the presence of vehicles in a maximum of 40 detection
zones within the combined field of view of the cameras.
2.1.3 Different detector types shall be selectable via software. Detector types shall include stop-line
detectors, presence detectors and directional presence detectors..
2.1.4 Once the ACU has been properly set up using the supervisor computer and RGB monitor, it shall
be possible to disconnect the supervisor computer and video monitor. The ACU shall then detect
vehicles as a stand-alone unit.
2.2 Operation With Supervisor On-Line
2.2.1 Once the detector configuration has been downloaded from the supervisor computer into the ACU,
it shall be possible to operate the video detection system either with the supervisor computer
disconnected or on-line.
2.2.2 When the supervisor computer is on-line, it shall be possible to view vehicle detections inreal-time
as they occur on the RGB video monitor, or the portable supervisor with integrated color VGA
display.
3. VEHICLE DETECTION
3.1 Detection Zone Placement
The video detection system shall provide flexible detection zone placement anywhere and at any
orientation within the combined field of view of the cameras. Preferred presence detector configurations shall be lines placed across lanes of traffic or lines placed in-line with lanes of
traffic. A single detector line shall be able to replace multiple conventional detector loops connected in series.
3.2 Detection Zone Programming
3.2.1 Placement of detection zones shall be by means of a supervisor computer operating in the
u ~ Windows 3.1 graphics environment, a mouse, and an RGB video monitor. The RGB video monitor
shall show images of the detection zones superimposed on the video image of traffic. When using the portable supervisor computer, the RGB video monitor shall not be required. This supervisor
configuration shall allow the display of detection superimposed on the video image of traffic
directly on the integrated VGA monitor of the portable supervisor computer.
3.2.2 The detection zones shall be created by using the mouse to draw detection lines on the RGB
video monitor or portable supervisor computer with integrated VGA monitor. It shall be possible
to save detector configurations on disk, to download detector configurations to the ACU, and to retrieve the detector configuration that is currently running in the ACU.
3.2.3 It shall be possible to use the, mouse to edit previously defined detector configurations so as to
fine-tune the detection zone placement. Once a detection configuration has been created, the
supervisor computer system shall provide a graphic display of the new configuration both on its
own VGA screen and on the RGB monitor or portable supervisor computer with integrated VGA
monitor.
3.2.4 It shall be possible to individually adjust sensitivity, persistence and shadow compensation for each
detection zone in the system.
3.2.5 When a vehicle is under a detection zone, the detection zone shall change in color or intensity on
the RGB video monitor or ,portable supervisor computer with integrated VGA monitor, thereby verifying proper operation of the detection system.
3.3 Optimal Detection
The video detection system shall reliably detect vehicle presence when the camera is mounted
30 feet (10 m} or higher above the roadway, when the camera is adjacent to the desired coverage
area, and when the length of the detection area or field of view ~FOV} is not greater than ten X10) times the mounting height of the camera. The camera shall not be required to be mounted directly
over the roadway. A single camera, placed at the proper mounting height with the proper lens,
shall be able to monitor six ~6) to eight ~8} traffic lanes simultaneously.
3.4 Detection Performance
Overall performance of the video detection system shall be comparable to inductive loops. Using standard camera optics and in the absence of occlusion, the system shall be able to detect vehicle
presence with 98% accuracy under normal conditions day & night} and 96% accuracy
under adverse conditions fog, rain, snow).
4. ACU HARDWARE
4.1 ACU Mounting
The ACU shall mount into a 19" EIA equipment rack assembly or be shelf-mountable. Nominal
outside dimensions excluding connectors shall be 5 'r~" x 17 '/4" x 10-1 /8" or 140 x 438 x 257 mm

4.3.3 Serial communications to the m~em shall be through an RS-232 serial port. Serial communications
to the supervisor shall bethrough an RS-232/RS-422 serial port. This port shall be able to download
traffic data stored in non-volatile memory as .well as the real-time detection information needed to
show detector actuations. A "Du subminiature connector on the front of the ACU shall be used for
serial communications.
