IITKGP Innovates Technology For Safer Transport During Rain

Researchers from the Department of Electronics and Electrical Communications at IIT Kharagpur have developed a technology that removes blur of rain from videos real-time and displays it on the windscreen of vehicles to reduce accidents. Accidents due to low visibility during heavy rain are a major concern all over the world and a technological solution was much awaited. Also, the solution needed to give real-time visual output with least errors as there is considerable risk involved in case any deviation in the imaging. The technology, Real-time Rain Removal from Videos, is a proprietary algorithm which has a big advantage for Driver Assistance Systems (DAS) that uses video information to impart traffic related information. "The technology is envisioned to be used to enhance the ...
