Abstract

Haze is very apparent in images shot during periods of bad weather (fog). The image's clarity and readability are both diminished as a result. As part of this work, we suggest a method for improving the quality of the hazy image and for identifying any objects hidden inside it. To address this, we use the picture enhancement techniques of Dark Channel Prior and Guided Filter. The Saliency map is then used to segment the improved image and identify passing vehicles. Lastly, we describe our method for calculating the actual distance in units from a camera-equipped vehicle of an item (another vehicle).Our proposed solution can warn the driver based on the distance to help them prevent an accident. Our suggested technology improves images and accurately detects vehicles nearly 100% of the time.
