What is it about?

For autonomous driving, need to recognise traffic signals so that the cars can exhibit good beviour on the roads. This paper describes how computer vision can be used for that purpose.

Why is it important?

Autonomous driving is increasingly close to being deployed in all cars. It is therefore very important that they understand the rules of the road, including the ability to obey traffic signals.

Perspectives

Autonomous driving is huge, across the world. Well driven vehicles are likely to reduce incidents on the road, control traffic flow, and even assist with air quality because traffic jams are likely to reduce. Traffic loight detection is a vital component of that far larger project.
