This paper presents a complete vision-based vehicle detection system for floating car data FCD enhancement in the context of vehicular ad hoc networks VANETs . Three cameras side- forward- and rear-looking cameras are installed onboard a vehicle in a fleet of public buses. Thus a more representative local description of the traffic conditions extended FCD can be obtained. Specifically the vision modules detect the number of vehicles contained in the local area of the host vehicle traffic load and their relative velocities. Absolute velocities average road speed and global positioning are obtained after combining the outputs provided by the vision modules with the data supplied by the CAN Bus and the GPS sensor. This information is transmitted by means of a GPRS UMTS data connection to a central unit which merges the extended FCD in order to maintain an updated map of the traffic conditions traffic load and average road speed . The presented experiments are promising in terms of detection performance and computational costs. However significant effort is further necessary before deploying a system for large-scale real applications. 1. Introduction .
