Handheld communication device with function of identifying traffic signals

Abstract

The invention provides a handheld communication device with the function of identifying traffic signals. The handheld communication device comprises a storage unit, an image acquisition unit, an imageidentification unit, a processing unit and a voice unit, wherein the storage unit is used to store a plurality of traffic-signal data; the image acquisition unit is used to acquire images of signal lamps; the image identification unit is used to identify the characteristics of the signal lamps in the images of the signal lamps; the processing unit is used to perform comparison according to the characteristics of the signal lamps and the traffic-signal data so as to produce comparison results; and the voice unit is used to output the comparison results. The traffic safety of users can be improved through the device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hand-held communication device with the function of identifying traffic signals, in particular to a hand-held communication device which captures the signal light image and prompts the display status of the signal light in voice mode. Background technique [0002] At present, traffic signals are controlled by three colors of red, yellow and green to guide traffic. For visually impaired people and drivers driving in bad weather, at night or on roads with insufficient lighting equipment, it is impossible to accurately distinguish the display status of traffic signals. , At this time, traffic safety is really worrying. Take the visually impaired as an example, such as amblyopia or color blindness, etc. In order to make the visually impaired move more conveniently, such as Taiwan Patent No. 563525 "Traffic Blind Guide Device", which has magnetism at red lights and can attract special Guide sticks or shoes for the visually impair...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] At present, traffic signals are controlled by three colors of red, yellow and green to guide traffic. For visually impaired people and drivers driving in bad weather, at night or on roads with insufficient lighting equipment, it is impossible to accurately distinguish the display status of traffic signals. , traffic safety is really worrying at this time

Take the visually impaired as an example, such as amblyopia or color blindness, etc. In order to make the visually impaired move more conveniently, such as Taiwan Patent No. 563525 "Traffic Blind Guide Device", which has magnetism at red lights and can attract special Guide sticks or shoes for the visually impaired, but except that all visually impaired people must use the guide stick or shoes for the visually impaired, it still needs to do a comprehensive update of the existing streets, resulting in the disadvantage of high cost. Furthermore, Doesn't really help the driver
