Abstract

Measuring speed of a vehicle in a road environment. During calibration, multiple images are captured of a calibration vehicle traveling at a known ground speed. A calibration image feature is located in the image of the calibration vehicle. An optical flow of the calibration image feature is computed to determine a model between an image speed of the calibration image feature and the known ground speed of the calibration vehicle. During speed measurement, multiple images are captured of a target vehicle traveling along a road surface at unknown ground speed. A target image feature may be located in an image of the target vehicle. An image speed may be computed of the target image feature. The model may be applied to determine the ground speed of the target vehicle from the image speed of the target image feature.
