Traffic Signal Control System and Method with Pedestrian Path Prediction Technology

摘要

A signal control system and method to which a pedestrian path prediction technology using artificial intelligence is applied is provided as a plan to secure the pedestrian's right to walk and to ensure the safety of not only ordinary pedestrians, but also pedestrians vulnerable. Traffic signal control method according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of detecting a pedestrian; Tracking the detected pedestrian to derive a movement trajectory of the pedestrian; Predicting a pedestrian's crossing intention from the pedestrian's movement trajectory; And controlling the traffic signal based on the prediction result. Accordingly, through traffic signal control to which a pedestrian path prediction technology using artificial intelligence is applied, pedestrians' right to walk can be secured, and safety of pedestrians as well as general pedestrians can be secured.
