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 ...
