Vision Based Monitoring System for Passenger’s Safety in Railway Platform

초록

The proposed system automatically detects accident in platform and analyzes level of danger using image processing technology, finally inform operators of the accident with video and alarm immediately. Especially, the system uses stereo vision technology with multi-sensors for minimizing detection error in various railway platform conditions. The information acquisition process monitors entire area of the track line in platform by using a series of stereo and thermal cameras, and infrared sensors. The decision making process analyzes the situation and level of danger with detection result from IAP. The information multicasting process transmits video information and alarm message with standard operation procedure to preset receivers, such as central control room, station and train.
