Collision recognition from a video

Introduction

Driving is a task that requires attention distribution. One of its many issues is identifying possible collision trajetories by vehicles from behind. Thus, there is a need for a system that automatically recognizes vehicles that are about to collide with the user, and warns him/her.

In this project, we planned a Computer Vision based solution to this problem. We implemented the solution on an Android based mobile device.We propose an algorithm that recognizes moving vehicles in the video, predicts whether they are about to collide with the user, and alerts in real-time before a collision can take place.

We present here Part B of this project. This part focuses on the algorithm and it's implementation, with taking into account real-time constraints. This part was implemented using Android SDK.
