Re-ID Technology for V2I based Cooperative Driving Protocol

In recent years, there are collaborative efforts in establishing protocols between autonomous vehicles(AV) and infrastructures to provide safety and traffic efficiency on the road. Majority of recently proposed cooperative protocols are done using vehicle to vehicle(V2V) based cooperative driving protocol where AVs communicate with each other to negotiate its actions. However, V2V based cooperative protocols has its limitations in environments with obstructions such as buildings. To overcome such shortages, our team previously proposed a vehicle to infrastructure(V2I) based cooperative driving protocol using common surveillance cameras. To maximize V2I efficiency, the visible range of surveillance cameras needs to be extended. Our team present a developed re-identification algorithm between multi-cameras that can extend visible range of surveillance cameras and support real-time applications.
