A new and simple image processing approach for the measurement of the length of pedestrian crossings with a view to develop a travel aid for the blind people is described. In a crossing, the usual black road surface is painted with constant width periodic white bands. The crossing length is estimated using vector geometry from the left- and the right-border lines, the first-, the second- and the end-edge lines of the crossing region. Image processing techniques are applied on the crossing image to find these lines. Experimental results using real road scenes with pedestrian crossing confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.
