用手机晃动习惯精准追踪行人行进方向,提升过街安全预警能力。

Reliable Heading Tracking for Pedestrian Road Crossing Prediction Using Commodity Devices

  • 基于手机惯性运动规律建立朝向与行进方向映射关系
  • 在9种场景下误差比现有方法小3.4倍,提前0.35秒预警过街
  • 轻量模型可在普通手机上实时运行,适合道路安全应用

行人行进方向追踪可用于导航、交通安全和无障碍服务。以往方法依赖惯性传感器融合或机器学习,但假设手机固定朝向,泛化能力差。本文提出新算法OHA,利用人们行走时手机自然摆动的习惯,将手机姿态映射到行人行进方向,并通过粗略方向与手机姿态数据高效学习该映射关系。为验证实用性,我们将OHA应用于预测行人过街行为以提升道路安全。基于2020年以来收集的60人共755小时步行数据,构建了可在普通设备上实时运行的轻量模型。评估表明,OHA在九种场景中平均方向误差仅为现有方法的1/3.4;且能提前0.35秒(平均)准确检测过街行为并发出警报。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Pedestrian heading tracking enables applications in pedestrian navigation, traffic safety, and accessibility. Previous works, using inertial sensor fusion or machine learning, are limited in that they assume the phone is fixed in specific orientations, hindering their generalizability. We propose a new heading tracking algorithm, the Orientation-Heading Alignment (OHA), which leverages a key insight: people tend to carry smartphones in certain ways due to habits, such as swinging them while walking. For each smartphone attitude during this motion, OHA maps the smartphone orientation to the pedestrian heading and learns such mappings efficiently from coarse headings and smartphone orientations. To anchor our algorithm in a practical scenario, we apply OHA to a challenging task: predicting when pedestrians are about to cross the road to improve road user safety. In particular, using 755 hours of walking data collected since 2020 from 60 individuals, we develop a lightweight model that operates in real-time on commodity devices to predict road crossings. Our evaluation shows that OHA achieves 3.4 times smaller heading errors across nine scenarios than existing methods. Furthermore, OHA enables the early and accurate detection of pedestrian crossing behavior, issuing crossing alerts 0.35 seconds, on average, before pedestrians enter the road range.
