Sam,

Certainly the easiest way is to detect motion from a static camera (using the movement module) and use that to isolate areas of change in the image. Counting those areas gives you a rough idea on how many cars are going by. Based on the relative size of those movement areas you can guess at car/bike/lorry.

Using shape or object recognition is harder for that task since there are many models of cars/bikes/etc. that you would have to train on ... which is possible but takes a lot more work.

Detection of Cars and Motobikes

Hi everyone,

I'm just posting up ask you lot with the experiences what would be the best way of detecting cars and motorbikes on a live camera?

I've bought the software of which can i say is FANTASTIC. Dead easy to learn on etc Had a play with it last night and have try blob and canny etc and it's real good :D

All I want to do atm is be able to detect cars and a motorbikes on say a road. Later on going to expand it to find the distance of the car/bike.

So just asking what would be the best way to detect them (cars and bikes) what filter should i use, should i use shape or object recognition etc

Cheers

Sam
