RSSCamera-based driving assistance systems supplier 4279 Mobileye and 8036 Valeo have joined forces to combine Mobileye's EyeQ family of microprocessors and computer vision algorithms with Valeo's driving assistance sensor portfolio.
 
Under the cooperation agreement, Valeo, which develops driving assistance systems, will design and industrialise a range of front-facing camera solutions and sensor fusion products using Mobileye's EyeQ family of microprocessors and computer vision algorithms. The product portfolio will include monocular cameras for active safety applications to satisfy regulatory requirements for collision avoidance, fusion with non-scanning LED, fusion with radar and trifocal camera configurations for high-end customer functions.
 
The product offering will be designed for scalability and is expected to run on a single Mobileye EyeQx system-on-chip. During the term of the agreement, the front-facing camera technology offered by Valeo will be based solely on Mobileye's EyeQ family of microprocessors and computer vision algorithms.

    In collaboration with Finnish plastics manufacturer Coreplast Laitila, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland has developed a reflector that can be wirelessly controlled via a mobile phone application. A traditional reflector, carried by a pedestrian and equipped with sensors, LED lights and wireless charging and communication, can be made to blink and alert vehicle drivers when the pedestrian is approaching a dangerous crossing. In the future, researchers say it could communicate directly with smart traf

    January 11, 2013
    It would be easy to fall into the trap of seeing machine vision as the vision-based solution for ITS and traffic, however Patrik Anderson, Director Business Development Transportation of Axis Communications, notes that many of the applications which are coming to be associated with machine vision – and, indeed, many of the characteristics, such as at-the-edge analytics and image processing – are also possible with open-standard networked video. Networked video brings a whole host of advantages, such as the
