Setting up the Traffic violations detection module

For the Traffic violations detection module operation program module for identifying the plates and that is being set up is required (see Activating the program module, used for identifying the plates section).

The Traffic violations detection object is created on the basis of LPR channel object.

To set the Traffic violations detection module, do the following:

1. Go to Traffic violations detection setting tab.
   

2. In Traffic lights signal dropdown list select Sensor object (see Intellect software package: Installing and configuring security system components guide) by signal of which the light of traffic light is detected (1).

   Note.

   Information about Sensor object is presented in the Intellect software package: Installing and configuring security system components guide. Information about Traffic Light Detection is presented in The Traffic Light Detection software module setup section.

   Attention!

   For correct operation of the Traffic violations detection module disarm the corresponding Sensor object.

3. Set the Draw stop line checkbox if it's necessary to overlay a stop line before the traffic light (2).
4. Set up the stop line displaying:
   4.1 Click Stop line settings (3). The window of the same name opens.
   
   4.2 Click Stop video to set the stop line. As the result the frame on which it's necessary to set the stop line, is displayed.
   
   4.3 Set the stop line. To set the stop line, click the road edge in the image, press the left mouse button, drag the cursor to another edge of the road in the video frame.
   4.4 Click OK.
5. In the Delay in violation registering field enter time (in milliseconds) that determines the time interval after which after switching on a red light the violations will fix (4).
6. Enter the number of frames that will be saved in database in the The number of frames to save field at the running a red light (5). Only 100 frames are saved in database in case of value more than 100 is specified.
7. Enter time (in milliseconds) that determines the time interval of frames for saving in the Frame saving interval field at the running a red light (6).

8. From the Type of violation drop-down list select the type of traffic violation that will be specified in the caption to the alarm while the Stop violation is registered (7).

   Note.

   The following violation types are available: Stop over stop line and Stop over crosswalk line.

9. Enter the number of frames that will be saved in database in the The number of frames to save field when the Stop violation is registered (8).

10. Enter time (in milliseconds) that determines the time interval of frames for saving in the Frame saving interval field when the Stop violation is registered (9).

    Attention!

    For correct operation of synchronized frames recording set the checkbox in Automatic recording on LPR channel object setting panel and set value of time that is bigger than the product of Number of frames for saving and Interval of frame saving parameter points.

11. To save the changings click Apply (10).

The Traffic violations detection module setup is complete.

The installation diagram of video cameras for violations detections by all directions of signaled crossing depending on the number of lanes is follows.

Several cameras are used for this purpose:

• Main camera - by one on each lane focused on the crossing and they detect and recognize license plates of vehicles entered to the crossing. Vehicles are moving to cameras.
• Additional, overview camera directed behind vehicles entered to the crossing (vehiles are moving from the camera). The traffic light with the red signal is also in the field of camera view.
  

The Auto-Intellect software package receives signal from traffic light controller that the red signal enabled. After this signal record by all cameras started. For each vehicle entered to the crossing the following are detected:

• image of vehicle and its license plate;
• recognized vehicle LP (in the text mode);
• image confirming that the red signal is enabled and vehicle is located on the forbidden place is detected by additional, overview camera.

The Auto-intellect software package allows combining of umlimited number of crossings in the one photo-video detection system of moving on the red signal of traffic light. Data about all detected violations on all crossings are automatically passing to the integrated database.
