Abstract
For the benefit of pedestrians, a method for identifying and locating positions of obstacles moving on a pedestrian sidewalk acquires an image of the sidewalk and processes the image to divide it. The divided image comprises classifications of objects in the image on a pixel by pixel basis. The classifying of objects in the divided image comprises the sidewalk classification, and classification of the obstacles appears in the image. Pixels surrounding the obstacles are acquired in terms of number and classifications. Positions of the obstacles are determined based on a preset threshold, the classifications of adjacent pixels of the obstacles, and the pixel number of the adjacent pixel in each object classification. An apparatus and a system applying the method are also disclosed.
