Pedestrian safety with eye-contact between autonomous car and pedestrian

Abstract

Method for eye-contact between autonomous car and pedestrian is proposed for pedestrian safety. The method allows to detect the pedestrian who would like to across a street through eye-contact between an autonomous driving car and the pedestrian. Through experiment, it is found that the proposed method does work well for finding such pedestrians and for noticing a sign to the pedestrians from the autonomous driving car with a comprehensive representation of face image displayed onto front glass of the car.
