In order to be deployed in driving environments, Intelligent transport system (ITS) must be able to recognize and respond to exceptional road conditions such as traffic signs, highway work zones and imminent road works automatically. Recognition of traffic sign is playing a vital role in the intelligent transport system, it enhances traffic safety by providing drivers with safety and precaution...

The development of vehicular electronic vision systems for the automotive market is a growing field, driven in particular by customer demand to increase the safety of vehicles both for drivers, and for other road users, including Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs), such as pedestrians. Close-range automotive camera systems are designed to display the areas in the close vicinity of the vehicle to the ...

The impacts of roads on natural environments are varied and complex, but one of the most obvious impacts on wildlife populations is elevated mortality from collisions between vehicles and animals. Improved and efficient investment in mitigation requires knowledge of where (and why) roads have particularly high impacts on wildlife populations. We report on an animal road kill study on the Thousa...

There is a significant demand for devices that can rapidly detect chemical-biological-explosive (CBE) threats on-site and allow for immediate responders to mitigate spread, risk, and loss. The key to an effective reconnaissance mission is a unified detection technology that analyzes potential threats in real time. In addition to reviewing the current state of the art in the field, this review i...
