Abstract
The detection of approaching vehicles is a very important topic on the development of complementary traffic safety systems. However, the majority of the proposed approaches are very complex and not suitable for embedded applications. This paper proposes a new sound approaching detection algorithm specifically intended for hardware implementation. Experimental results show higher accuracy and earlier detection when comparing to other methods.
