Abstract

This work present one method aimed to individualization and recognition of vial signs in route and city. It is based fundamentally on the identification by means of color and form of the vial sing, located in the border of the route or street in city, and then recognition. To do so the obtained RGB image is processed, carrying out diverse filtrates in the sequence of input image, or intensifying the colors of the same ones otherwise, recognizing their silhouette and then segmenting the sign and comparing the symbology of them with the previously stored and classified database.
