A quest of vacant parking space in the public area can indirectly lead to traffic congestion which can be troublesome for drivers in terms of time efficiency. This study is expected to assist drivers to get the available parking slots information in a real-time manner and support the parking control systems by constantly updating the information of vacant parking slots positions in public areas. A vision-based parking slots recognition method is proposed to identify occupied areas by vehicle which is divided into two main parts: setup configuration and object detection. Canny Edge and Hough Line Transform are used to achieve line detection for parallel parking slot marking; contour extraction and bounding rectangular are then applied for an initial parameter to form a reference area as a region of interest (ROI). Moreover, Structural Similarity Index Measurement (SSIM) exploits the reference image and target image to identify whether the area is empty or occupied by vehicle depending on structure comparison. Experimental result shows, from 50 sample images of parking slots attained by surveillance camera, the detection accuracy of 92% and precision of 89% are obtained using selected features with tuning SSIM threshold level of 0.4.
Kondisi kepadatan lalu lintas merupakan salah satu faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap kapasitas jalan. Pemanfaatan teknologi dapat dilakukan untuk mempermudah proses pemantauan kepadatan lalu lintas. Beberapa teknologi telah dibuat dan dikembangkan, namun masih memiliki fitur yang terbatas. Dalam penelitian ini, dirancang sebuah purwarupa sistem informasi tingkat kepadatan lalu lintas berdasarkan persentase kapasitas jalan yang dilalui oleh kendaraan. Penelitian ini menggunakan image processing dengan metode background subtraction dari library OpenCV yang dibuat di software Pycharm untuk mengolah rekaman video. Metode tersebut digunakan untuk menghasilkan persentase kapasitas jalan berdasarkan perbandingan luas area kendaraan terhadap luas area jalan. Dari hasil pengujian yang dilakukan dapat diketahui bahwa tingkat kepadatan lalu lintas yang tinggi dan jumlah kendaraan yang banyak berpengaruh terhadap kinerja sistem dalam mendeteksi kendaraan yang melintas.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
