We have developed software for crosswalk detection and walk light recognition with the main aim to help blind people when crossing the road. The proposed algorithm is optimised to work in real-time on portable devices using standard cameras. The images captured by a camera are processed while a person is moving and a decision about the detected crosswalk is provided as output along with the information about a walk light if one is present.
