A
red light color strengthening method of traffic lights includes the steps that a
red light image is continuously collected through
imaging equipment, and a rough area containing the
red light area is marked in the red light image; a historical red light area is initialized, and the historical red light area is as big as the rough area; a
time model is provided, a red light presentation
color model is built through a red light presentation color module building step, and the
duration time is t color; within each t static and t color time, color strengthening is carried out on the rough area through the red light presentation
color model and a red light color strengthening step, and the t color and the t static represents the on-line study time of the red light presentation
color model and the time that the red light presentation color model can keep respectively; after each time of on-line study, the red light presentation color model is updated. When a rod for supporting the
imaging equipment vibrates or shakes, the actual red light area can still be detected under the influence of natural factors, and therefore the color can be strengthened no matter how the representation color of the red light is.
