Abstract
If pedestrian accidents occur in nighttime, the risk of being killed is higher than during daylight. Recognizing pedestrians at night is more difficult than during daylight. New light source, such as HID bulb, and new technology, such as AFLS, have improved a visibility while driving at night; also using sensor, such as night-vision. It is possible to detect a pedestrian; but the driver has to see the display. In this study, Spot light which illuminate the pedestrian directly detected by NIR sensor and image processing is developed and this system help the driver avoid accident by recognizing the presence of the pedestrian early without averting driver’s eyes.
