Vehicle passing automatic control system and method for traffic light intersection

Abstract

The invention discloses a vehicle passing automatic control system and method for a traffic light intersection. The vehicle passing system comprises an image processing module, an information processing module, an automatic following module, an engine starting and stopping module and a control module, wherein the image processing module comprises a camera shooting unit and an image processing unit, the camera shooting unit is used for acquiring images of the front of a vehicle, and the image processing unit is used for recognizing and extracting information of images of the front of the vehicle and sending the information to the information processing module; the information processing module is used for processing and judging the received information and sending the judgment result to thecontrol module; the automatic following module is connected with the control module, and the automatic following module is used for making the vehicle follow a front vehicle to run at the same speedas the front vehicle; the engine starting and stopping module is connected with the control module, and the engine starting and stopping module is used for controlling starting and stopping of an engine; and the control module is used for receiving the information of the information processing module so as to control starting and stopping of the automatic following module and the engine starting and stopping module. According to the vehicle passing automatic control system and method for the traffic light intersection, the vehicle entering the traffic light intersection is not controlled by adriver, so that the problem that vehicle passing is slow due to the fact that a driver performs road merging and queue jumping is effectively avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the traffic field, and more specifically, to an automatic control vehicle passing system and method for traffic light intersections. Background technique [0002] Congestion at morning and evening peak intersections on urban roads is very serious. The main reason is not only the sharp increase in the number of motor vehicles, but also drivers' illegal operations and uneven driving skills. [0003] Especially when waiting for a red light, it is not uncommon for some drivers to use mobile phones and forcibly merge into traffic jams, which also causes slow traffic at the intersection signal lights. A traffic signal that lasts for 30 to 40 seconds can pass through the intersection in the morning and evening rush hours. There are as many as ten or twenty vehicles, and as few as a few vehicles. [0004] Therefore, it is expected to design a traffic control system that automatically controls vehicles to safely pass through traffic li...
