Roadway and Work Crew Conspicuity
Author/Presenter: Barton, Joseph E.; Misener, James A.Abstract:
The work reported here quantitatively addresses the measurement of conspicuity of highway features and Caltrans work zones — from the perspective of driver detection. The method focused on acquiring and operating on a computational visual signature analysis tool, but it evolved into evaluating the detection process, then selecting and exercising human perception-acquisition models suitable for development into a tool for conspicuity measurement. A composite, quantitative model of conspicuity was developed, verified, and applied to some sample roadside scenes.
