본 발명은 휴게소용 다기능 카메라 시스템, 그 제어방법, 이를 이용한 통합운영시스템 및 그 제어방법에 관한 것으로서, 한정되지는 않지만, 특히 고속도로 휴게소에 설치하여 진출입하는 차량을 촬영하고 이를 이미지 프로세싱하여 차량에 관한 각종 정보를 추출하여 다용도로 활용하는 것이 가능한 휴게소용 다기능 카메라 시스템, 그 제어방법, 이를 이용한 통합운영시스템 및 그 제어방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a multifunctional camera system for a rest area, a control method thereof, an integrated operating system using the same, and a control method thereof, but is not limited thereto. In particular, the present invention relates to a vehicle by photographing a vehicle entering and exiting a highway rest area and image processing the same. The present invention relates to a multifunctional camera system for a rest area that can extract and utilize various information, a control method thereof, an integrated operating system using the same, and a control method thereof.
신규 고속도로의 증가와 기존 도로의 고속도로화가 증가하면서 고속도로를 이용하는 차량은 날로 증가하고 있다. 일반적으로 고속도로를 이용하는 경우에 운전자가 휴식을 취할 수 있는 공간은 휴게소로 한정된다. 고속도로의 휴게소 이용객의 증가로 인하여, 고속도로 휴게소 운영자 및 이용자의 측면에서 여러 가지 문제점이 발생하고 있으며, 따라서 이의 개선이 요구되고 있다. As the number of new highways increases and that of existing roads increases, the number of vehicles using highways is increasing day by day. In general, when using the highway, the space for the driver to rest is limited to rest areas. Due to the increase in the number of passengers at highway rest stops, various problems occur in terms of highway rest area operators and users, and thus improvement is required.
고속도로 휴게소 이용의 문제점 및 개선점의 여러 예를 설명하면 다음과 같다.Several examples of the problems and improvements of using the highway rest area are as follows.
첫째, 고속도로 휴게소 이용자가 증가함에 따라 휴게소 운영자 및 이용자의 측면에서 가장 효율적인 휴게소 운영이 필요하다. 예를 들어, 휴게소에서 범죄 등이 발생하는 경우가 있으므로 이의 효과적인 예방이 필요하다. 또한, 고속도로 휴게소 이용자 중 특히 대중교통을 이용하는 이용자가 보다 편리하게 휴게소를 이용하는 것에 대한 배려가 필요하다. 왜냐하면, 대중교통을 이용하는 이용자는 휴게소의 이용 시간 등이 자유롭지 못하므로 이에 맞추어 적절히 편의를 제공하는 것이 바람직하다. 또한, 이용자의 휴게소 이용 현황-주로 이용하는 시간대, 특정요일, 날짜 등-에 따른 효과적인 휴게소 운영 예를 들어 특정 집중 시간대의 서비스 인력의 배치 강화 등이 필요하다. 그런데, 현재는 이러한 이용자의 휴게소 이용 현황 등에 대한 자료가 부족하다는 문제가 있다. First, as the number of highway rest stops increases, it is necessary to operate the most efficient rest stops in terms of operators and users. For example, crimes may occur at rest areas, so effective prevention is necessary. In addition, it is necessary to consider the use of the rest area more conveniently among the users of the highway rest area users, especially public transportation. Because the user using public transportation is not free to use the rest area, it is desirable to provide convenience accordingly. In addition, it is necessary to operate the rest area effectively according to the user's resting place usage status-mainly used time zone, specific day of the week, date, etc. However, at present, there is a problem that there is a lack of data on the user's use of the rest area.
둘째, 고속도로에서 속도위반 단속을 위하여, 두 지점의 사이의 속도를 평균 속도로 환산하여 속도위반 단속을 시행하는 소위 구간 단속이 시행되고 있다. 예를 들어, 한국에서는 2008년 부터 시행되고 있다. 구간 단속은 어느 특정 지점에서의 과속 단속보다 구간 단속은 그 효율성이 높다. 그러나, 구간 단속의 특성상 구간 단속의 시점과 종점의 사이에 휴게소가 위치하는 경우에는 구간 단속을 시행하는 것이 사실상 곤란하다. 따라서 이러한 문제의 해결이 요구되고 있다.Second, in order to control speed violations on highways, so-called section crackdowns are being implemented to convert speeds between two points into average speeds and conduct speed violations. In Korea, for example, it has been in place since 2008. Sectional crackdown is more efficient than sectioned crackdown at any given point. However, when the rest area is located between the start point and the end point of the section crackdown due to the characteristics of the section crackdown, it is practically difficult to enforce the section crackdown. Therefore, there is a demand for solving such a problem.
셋째, 고속도로 사용 요금을 줄이기 위하여 상하행선 휴게소나 간이휴게소가 인접한 곳에서 서로 통행권을 교환하는 이른바 통행권 바꿔치기가 발생하고 있다. 예를 들어, 도시 1(예들 들어 서울)에서 출발하는 차량과 도시 2(예를 들어 부산)에서 출발하는 차량이 도시 1과 도시 2의 중간쯤에 만나서 서로 통행권을 바꾼다. 도시 2 출발 통행권을 가진 도시 1에서 출발하는 차량은 도시 2 전의 톨게이트에서 나가고, 도시 1 출발 통행권을 가진 도시 2에서 출발하는 차량은 도시 1 전의 톨게이트에서 나가면, 결과적으로 도시 1에서 출발하는 차량은 도시 2와 도시 2전의 톨게이트 사이의 요금, 도시 2에서 출발하는 차량은 도시 1과 도시 1 전의 톨게이트 사이의 요금만을 지불하게 된다. 이러한 통행권 교환 사용 적발하고 방지하기 위하여, 많은 예산을 사용하여 각각의 요금소에 이른바 "통행권 면탈 방지 시스템"을 운용하고 있다. 그러나 이는 요금소의 "통행권 면탈 방지 시스템"의 카메라가 잠시라도 작동을 멈추면 통행권 교환을 적발하는 것이 불가능하다. 따라서 이러한 문제의 해결이 요구되고 있다.Third, there is a change of so-called right-of-going ticket in which up and down line rest stops or simple rest stops exchange their right to each other. For example, a vehicle departing from city 1 (for example, Seoul) and a vehicle departing from city 2 (for example, Busan) meet about halfway between city 1 and city 2 and change their pass. A vehicle departing from city 1 with a city 2 departure pass leaves the toll gate before city 2, and a vehicle leaving city 2 with a city 1 departure pass leaves the toll gate before city 1, and as a result, a vehicle leaving city 1 The fare between the toll gates 2 and 2 before the city, and the vehicle departing from the city 2 only pays the fare between the city 1 and the toll gates before the city 1. In order to detect and prevent the use of the exchange of tickets, a large amount of budget is used to operate a so-called "pass exemption prevention system" at each tollgate. However, it is impossible to detect a toll exchange if the camera of the toll-free "toll-free system" stops working for a while. Therefore, there is a demand for solving such a problem.
넷째, 일반적으로 운전자의 피로 정도를 고려하여 휴게소 표준 간격에 대한 규정이 있을 수 있다. 예들 들어, 한국의 규정에 따르면, 휴게소 표준 간격을 15㎞로 정하고 최대 25㎞를 넘지 않도록 하고 있다. 또한 교통량이 많은 구간에는 주차장, 화장실, 매점 등 최소 시설만 갖춘 간이 휴게소 설치를 권장하고 있다. 그러나, 국내 고속도로 휴게소 사이의 평균 간격(41.5㎞)이 적정 기준(15㎞)을 2.7배나 초과해 졸음운전 및 각종 안전 사고의 주요 원인으로 작용하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 동해고속도로(20㎞)과 경부고속도로(26㎞)만 권장 기준을 가까스로 맞출 뿐, 88올림픽 고속도로(45.5km), 중앙고속도로(41km) 등을 합친 전국 149개 고속도로 휴게소의 평균 간격은 41.5㎞에 달한다. 그런데 기준에 미달하는 휴게소 간격은 졸음운전 사고 등으로 이어질 가능성이 크다. 통계에 의하면, 휴게소간 평균거리가 20km로 비교적 짧은 동해고속도로의 경우에 2006년 교통사고 중 졸음운전 비율이 7.7%에 불과한 반면에 휴게소간 평균 간격이 33.93㎞로 비교적 긴 중부내륙고속도로의 경우는 33.1%에 달했다. 한국의 경우를 예를 들어 설명하였지만, 한국의 경우에 한정되지 않으며, 이러한 현상은 예측 가능한 결과라고 할 수 있다.Fourth, in general, there may be a provision for the standard spacing of rest areas in consideration of the degree of fatigue of the driver. For example, according to Korean regulations, the standard for rest stops is set to 15 km and no more than 25 km. In addition, it is recommended to install a simple rest area with only minimal facilities such as parking lots, toilets, and kiosks in areas with heavy traffic. However, the average interval (41.5km) between domestic highway rest areas exceeded the proper standard (15km) by 2.7 times, indicating that it is a major cause of drowsy driving and various safety accidents. Only the East Sea Expressway (20km) and Gyeongbu Expressway (26km) meet the recommended standards, and the average interval of 149 highway rest areas nationwide, including the 88 Olympic Expressway (45.5km) and the Central Expressway (41km), reaches 41.5km. . However, gaps in rest areas that do not meet the standards are likely to lead to drowsy driving accidents. According to the statistics, the average distance between rest stops is 20 km, which is relatively short (20 km). In 2006, the proportion of drowsy driving was only 7.7%, while the average distance between rest stops was 33.93 km. Reached%. Although the case of Korea has been described as an example, the present invention is not limited to the case of Korea, and this phenomenon may be regarded as a predictable result.
그런데, 고속도로의 휴게소의 증설은 많은 비용이 소용되므로, 단순히 휴게소 사이의 규정 거리뿐만 아니라 실제 교통량 및 이에 따른 이용량 등을 고려한 적절한 설치가 필요하다. 따라서 이용자의 휴게소 이용 현황의 예측하여 어느 장소에 휴게소를 증설하는 것이 효과적인지는 판단하는 것이 바람직하다. 그런데, 현재는 이러한 이용자의 휴게소 이용 현황의 예측 등에 대한 자료가 부족하다는 문제가 있다. However, since the expansion of the rest area of the expressway requires a lot of costs, it is necessary to properly install in consideration of the actual traffic volume and the amount of use, as well as the prescribed distance between the rest places. Therefore, it is desirable to predict the use status of the resting place of the user and to determine in which place the rest area is effective. However, at present, there is a problem that there is a lack of data on the prediction of the user's use of the rest area.

Reading the vehicle number is a technique already used in the speed regulation, and so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
더 나아가, 영상처리부(20,20a)에서는 촬영된 영상(200)에서 이미지 프로세싱에 의하여 차량명칭(120), 출발지/목적지(130), 출발시간(140) 등을 판독하는 것이 바람직하다. 상술한 차량번호, 차량명칭 등 이미지 프로세싱에 의하여 판독가능한 정보를 편의상 총칭하여 '차량정보'라 한다.Furthermore, it is preferable that the image processing unit 20 or 20a read the vehicle name 120, the starting point / destination 130, the starting time 140, and the like by the image processing in the captured image 200. Information readable by image processing such as the vehicle number and vehicle name described above is collectively referred to as 'vehicle information' for convenience.
도 3 및 도 4를 참조하여, 본 실시예에 따른 제어방법 특히 영상처리부(20,20a) 및 중앙처리부(30)에서 판독된 차량번호 등을 기초로 휴게소의 이용 현황 등에 대한 유용한 각종 정보(이하 편의상 '휴게소 상황정보')를 가공하는 것을 설명한다.With reference to FIGS. 3 and 4, various kinds of useful information on the usage status of the rest area, etc., based on the control method according to the present embodiment, in particular, the vehicle number read by the image processing units 20 and 20a and the central processing unit 30, etc. For the sake of convenience, processing of 'rest area information' is explained.
진입 감지부(12)가 휴게소로 차량이 진입하는 것을 감지하면(S1), 진입 카메라부(10)가 상기 차량을 촬영한다(S3). 촬영된 영상(200)을 이미지 프로세싱하여 최소한 차량번호를 포함하는 차량정보를 판독한다(S5). 그리고 진출 감지부(12a)가 휴게소에서 차량이 진출하는 것을 감지하면(S7), 진출 카메라부(10a)가 상기 차량을 촬영하며(S9), 촬영된 영상(200)을 이미지 프로세싱하여 최소한 차량번호를 포함하는 차량정보를 판독한다(S11). 그리고 차량의 진입 및 진출시 판독한 차량정보를 기초로 하여 휴게소 상황정보를 가공한다(S13). 진입 감지부(12) 및 진출 감지부(12a)는 반드시 필요한 것은 아니면 적절한 방식으로 진입, 진출 차량을 촬영하는 것도 물론 가능하다.When the entrance detecting unit 12 detects that the vehicle enters the rest area (S1), the entrance camera unit 10 captures the vehicle (S3). Image processing of the photographed image 200 to read the vehicle information including at least the vehicle number (S5). When the entrance detecting unit 12a detects that the vehicle enters the rest area (S7), the entrance camera unit 10a captures the vehicle (S9), and processes the photographed image 200 to image at least the vehicle number. Read the vehicle information including a (S11). Then, the rest area information is processed based on the vehicle information read when the vehicle enters and exits (S13). The entrance detection unit 12 and the exit detection unit 12a are not necessarily necessary, but of course, the entrance and exit vehicles may be photographed in an appropriate manner.
촬영된 영상(200)에서 이미지 프로세싱하여 차량번호를 판독하면, 상기 차량 번호뿐만 아니라 판독된 차량번호를 이용하여 자가용/영업용, 승용차/승합차 등 인지를 알 수 있다. 왜냐하면, 차량의 번호는 임의로 정해지는 것이 아니며, 차량의 번호에는 차종 및 용도 등에 대한 정보가 포함되어 있기 때문이다. 예들 들어, 한국의 자동차 등록번호판등의 기준에 관한고시(건설교통부 고시 제2006-431호 등 참조) 예를 들어, 차량의 번호로 차량을 구분해보면, 차량의 번호에 앞자리 2 번호가 1-69이면 승용차이며, 승합차는 70~79 번호이다.If the vehicle number is read by image processing from the photographed image 200, the vehicle number as well as the vehicle number may be used to determine whether the vehicle number is a car / vehicle, a car, a van. This is because the number of the vehicle is not arbitrarily determined, and the number of the vehicle includes information on a vehicle model and a purpose. For example, a notice regarding the standards of Korean license plates, etc. (see Ministry of Construction and Transportation Notice 2006-431, etc.). For example, if a vehicle is classified by the number of vehicles, the first two numbers are 1-69. It is a passenger car, and a van is a 70-79 number.
판독된 차량번호를 기초로 하여 소정의 정보를 가공(S13)하는 것은 정보가공부(32) 또는 중앙제어부(30)에서 수행되는 것이 바람직하다. 예를 들어, 판독된 차량번호별로 휴게소에 체류하는 시간을 산출한다. 진입 카메라부(10) 및 진출 카메라부(10a)가 진출입하는 차량을 촬영하는 시간을 기록하고 이를 영상처리부(20,20a), 정보가공부(32) 및 중앙제어부(30)로 전달할 수 있으므로, 상기 정보가공부(32) 또는 중앙제어부(30)에서는 진출입 시간을 알 수 있다. 진출시간에서 진입시간을 빼면 해당 차량의 휴게소 체류 시간이 된다. 즉 차량번호별로 휴게소 체류 시간을 산출하는 것이 가능하다. 또한, 차량 종류별-자가용/영업용, 승용차/승합차 등-로 휴게소에 체류 시간을 산출하는 것도 물론 가능하다. 이때, 휴게소 근무자의 차량, 도로공사 차량 등과 같은 특정의 차량은 제외하고 체류 시간을 산출하는 것도 물론 가능하다.Processing of the predetermined information (S13) based on the read vehicle number is preferably performed by the information processing unit 32 or the central control unit 30. For example, the time for staying in the rest area is calculated for each vehicle number read. Since the entry camera unit 10 and the advance camera unit 10a can record the time of photographing the vehicle entering and entering the vehicle, and transmitting it to the image processing unit 20, 20a, the information processing unit 32, and the central controller 30, The information processing unit 32 or the central control unit 30 can know the entry and exit time. Subtracting the entry time from the departure time is the rest time of the vehicle. That is, it is possible to calculate the rest stop time for each vehicle number. In addition, it is of course possible to calculate the residence time in the rest area by vehicle type-such as car / commercial, passenger car / van. At this time, it is also possible to calculate the residence time except for a specific vehicle such as a vehicle of a rest stop worker, a road construction vehicle.
한편, 특정 휴게소에서 소정 시간 이상 체류하는 차량의 경우에는 범죄 용의 차량이나 불법 영업 차량일 가능성이 크다. 또한, 휴게소 이용자의 건강상의 문제로 소정 시간 이상 체류할 수도 있다. 따라서, 이러한 선별된 차량을 검문 검색 등을 하여 범죄 등을 방지하며, 이용자의 안전 여부 확인 등을 하는 것이 가능하다. 예를 들면, 1시간을 소정의 체류시간 상한으로 미리 설정하였다면, 휴게소 진입 후 1시간 이상이 경과 하였어도 진출하지 않는 차량을 판단하고, 판단된 차량번호와 차량영상을 운영자용 출력부(34)에 표시하고 알람을 발생시킨다. 또한, 휴게소 관리원에게 예들 들어 PDA 장비와 같은 휴대용 장치를 보급하고, 중앙제어부(30)에서는 상기 휴대용 장치에 소정시간 이상의 체류를 하고 있는 차량번호와 차량영상을 전송하는 인터페이스부(38)를 더욱 포함하는 것도 가능하다.(도 1 참조)On the other hand, a vehicle that stays for a predetermined time or more at a particular rest area is likely to be a criminal vehicle or an illegal business vehicle. In addition, it is possible to stay for a predetermined time or more due to the health problems of the resting place user. Therefore, it is possible to prevent such a crime by performing a screening search, such as the selected vehicle, it is possible to confirm whether the user is safe. For example, if one hour is set in advance as a predetermined residence time upper limit, it is determined that the vehicle does not advance even if more than one hour has elapsed after entering the rest area, and the determined vehicle number and vehicle image are output to the operator output unit 34. Display and trigger an alarm. In addition, the rest area manager to supply a portable device, such as PDA equipment, for example, the central control unit 30 further includes an interface unit 38 for transmitting the vehicle number and the vehicle image that has stayed in the portable device for a predetermined time or more. It is also possible (see Fig. 1).
한편, 영상처리부(20,20a)에서는 촬영된 영상(200)에서 차량번호 이외에도 각종 다른 정보를 이미지 프로세싱에 의하여 판독하는 것이 가능하다. 예를 들어, 촬영된 차량이 대중교통인 경우에는, 차량명칭, 출발지/목적지, 출발시간을 판독하는 것도 가능하다. 이러한 경우에는 안내부(36)에 차량번호, 차량명칭, 출발지, 목적지 및 휴게소 출발 예정 시간 등을 표시하여 줄 수 있다. 이때 안내부(36)는 전광판 등과 같이 비교적 크고 시인성이 좋은 것으로 구성하는 것이 바람직하다. 안내부(36)에서는, 차량번호, 차량명칭, 출발지, 목적지는 영상처리부(20,20a)에서 이미지 프로세싱에 의하여 판독한 정보를 사용하면 된다. 휴게소 출발 예정 시간은 해당 차량의 진입 시간에 소정 시간 예를 들어 10-15분을 더하여 산출하면 되며, 또한 차량의 전면에 출발시간이 표시된다면 이를 이미지 프로세싱에 의하여 판독하여 이용할 수도 있다.Meanwhile, the image processing units 20 and 20a may read various other information in addition to the vehicle number from the captured image 200 by image processing. For example, when the photographed vehicle is public transportation, it is also possible to read the vehicle name, the departure point / destination and the departure time. In such a case, the guide unit 36 may display a vehicle number, a vehicle name, a departure point, a destination, and a rest stop departure time. At this time, the guide portion 36 is preferably configured to be relatively large and good visibility, such as an electronic sign. In the guide unit 36, the vehicle number, the vehicle name, the starting point, and the destination may use information read by the image processing unit in the image processing units 20 and 20a . The rest stop departure time may be calculated by adding a predetermined time, for example, 10-15 minutes, to the entry time of the vehicle, and may be read and used by image processing if the departure time is displayed on the front of the vehicle.
예를 들어, 안내부(36)에 "00 고속, 차량번호 0000, 출발지 00, 목적지 00, 출발시간 00:00, 여유시간 00분" 등과 같이 표시하는 것이 가능하며, 특히 여유시간은 시간이 경과함에 따라 차감되게 구성하는 것이 바람직하다. 그리고, 해당 차량이 휴게소를 떠나게 되면, 이는 진출 카메라부(10a)에서 감지된다. 따라서 영상처리부(20,20a)에서 상기 차량의 차량번호가 판독되면, 해당 차량에 대한 정보를 안내부(36)에서 삭제하는 것이 바람직하다.For example, it is possible to display on the guide unit 36 such as "00 high speed, vehicle number 0000, departure 00, destination 00, departure time 00:00, spare time 00 minutes", and the like, in particular, the spare time has elapsed. It is preferable to configure to be subtracted. Then, when the vehicle leaves the rest area, it is detected by the advance camera unit 10a. Therefore, when the vehicle number of the vehicle is read by the image processing units 20 and 20a, it is preferable to delete the information about the vehicle from the guide unit 36.
상술한 바와 같이 함으로써, 고속버스, 관광버스 등의 이용자가 안전하고 편안하게 휴게소를 이용하는 것이 가능하며, 탑승 안내를 위한 방송을 줄일 수 있으므로 보다 쾌적한 휴게소 환경을 조성할 수 있다.As described above, it is possible for a user such as a highway bus and a tour bus to use the rest area safely and comfortably, and can reduce the broadcasting for boarding guidance, thereby creating a more comfortable rest area environment.
한편, 중앙제어부(30)에서 가공되는 휴게소 상황정보, 예를 들어 시간대별 차량댓수, 차량종류별 차량 댓수, 차량별 체류시간, 특정시점 체류하고 있는 차량의 수 등과 같은 실시간 통계정보를 휴게소 운영자가 효과적으로 이용하는 것이 가능하다. 예를 들어, 휴게소로 진입하는 차량의 증가에 따른 대비를 할 수 있으며, 또한 휴게소의 차량의 평균 체류시간, 휴게소 진입차량의 수 등과 매출의 연관성 등을 알 수 있으며, 또한 이러한 정보를 기반으로 휴게시설의 확장 또는 휴게소 간의 비교가 가능한 자료의 산출 등이 가능하다.On the other hand, the resting place operator effectively processes real-time statistical information such as the resting place situation information processed by the central control unit 30, for example, the number of vehicles by time zone, the number of vehicles by vehicle type, the residence time by vehicle, and the number of vehicles staying at a specific point in time. It is possible to use. For example, it is possible to prepare for the increase in the number of vehicles entering the rest area, and also to know the average residence time of the vehicles at the rest area, the number of vehicles entering the rest area, and the correlation between sales and the rest. It is possible to produce data that can be expanded or compared between rest areas.

도 5 및 도 6을 참조하여, 구간 단속을 하는 원리를 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to Figures 5 and 6, the principle of section interruption will be described.
통합운영시스템(50)는 제1차량 판독장치(300), 제2차량 판독장치(400) 및 휴게소용 중앙제어부(30)에서 전달된 정보를 이용하여, 상기 제1차량 판독장치(300)의 설치 위치, 상기 제2차량 판독장치(400)의 설치 위치, 휴게소(7)의 진입부(3) 및 진출부(5)에서 각각 차량의 차량번호 및 통과시간을 알 수 있다. 또한 통합운영시스템(50)는 제1차량 판독장치(300)와 휴게소용 진입부(3) 사이의 거리(Z1), 제2차량 판독장치(400)와 휴게소용 진출부(5) 사이의 거리(Z2), 제1차량 판독장치(300)와 제2차량 판독장치(400) 사이의 거리(Z)도 미리 알고 있다. 따라서, 통합운영시스템(50)는 제1차량 판독장치(300)와 휴게소용 진입부(3) 사이의 구간(Z1) 및 제2차량 판독장치(400)와 휴게소용 진출부(5) 사이의 구간(Z2)에서 운행 시간을 산출하여 해당 구간에서의 차량의 속도를 산출하여 구간 단속을 하는 것이 가능하다. 물론 차량(100)이 휴게소(7)를 들르지 않은 경우에는 제1차량 판독장치(300)와 제1차량 판독장치(300) 사이의 구간(Z)에서의 운행 시간을 산출하여 해당 구간에서의 차량의 속도를 산출하여 구간 단속을 하는 것이 가능하다.The integrated operating system 50 uses the information transmitted from the first vehicle reading device 300, the second vehicle reading device 400, and the rest area control unit 30, to determine the first vehicle reading device 300. The installation position, the installation position of the second vehicle reading device 400, the entrance number 3 and the exit portion 5 of the rest area 7 can know the vehicle number and the passing time of the vehicle, respectively. In addition, the integrated operating system 50 is the distance (Z1) between the first vehicle reading device 300 and the rest area entrance (3), the distance between the second vehicle reading device 400 and the rest area exit (5). (Z2), the distance Z between the first vehicle reading device 300 and the second vehicle reading device 400 is also known in advance. Accordingly, the integrated operating system 50 may include a section Z1 between the first vehicle reading device 300 and the rest area entrance part 3 and between the second vehicle reading device 400 and the rest area exit 5. It is possible to perform the section control by calculating the driving time in the section Z2 and calculating the speed of the vehicle in the section. Of course, when the vehicle 100 does not stop at the rest area 7, the vehicle time in the section Z between the first vehicle reading device 300 and the first vehicle reading device 300 is calculated to calculate the driving time. It is possible to perform section interruption by calculating the speed of.
한편, 본 실시예에서는 각각의 영상처리장치, 중앙제어장치에서 시간의 동기화가 필요한데, 이는 GPS 또는 네트워크를 이용한 동기화 방법을 사용할 수 있으며, 이는 일반적인 기술이므로, 이에 대한 상세한 설명은 생략한다.Meanwhile, in the present embodiment, time synchronization is required in each image processing apparatus and a central control apparatus, which may use a synchronization method using GPS or a network, and since this is a general technology, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
따라서, 상술한 바와 같이, 본 실시예에 따르면, 과속 구간 단속의 시점과 종점의 사이에 휴게소(7)가 위치하는 경우에도, 과속 단속을 할 수 있다. 또한, 예를 들어, 제1차량 판독장치(300) 및 제1차량 판독장치(300)를 고속도로 진입부 및 출입부에 이미 설치된 판독장치를 사용하면, 전체 고속도로를 구간 단속 시스템으로 구성할 수 있다. 따라서, 지점 과속 단속을 피하는 운전 형태 즉 운전자가 단속 카메라가 있는 지점에서만 규정속도 이하로 주행하는 운전 형태를 개선하는 것이 가능하고 교통사고 예방과 규정 속도 준수를 통한 많은 이점이 있다.Therefore, as described above, according to the present embodiment, even when the rest area 7 is located between the start point and the end point of the speeding section control, the speed regulation can be performed. In addition, for example, when the first vehicle reading device 300 and the first vehicle reading device 300 use the reading device already installed at the entrance and the exit of the highway, the entire highway can be configured as the section control system. . Therefore, it is possible to improve the driving mode to avoid the point speed enforcement, that is, the driving mode in which the driver travels below the specified speed only at the point where the speed camera is located, and there are many advantages through the prevention of traffic accidents and compliance with the specified speed.
도 5를 참조하여, 본 실시예에 따른 통행권 면탈 방지를 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to Figure 5, it will be described below to prevent the removal of the right to pass according to the present embodiment.
통행권 면탈은 주로 장거리 이용자가 통행료의 절감을 위해 통행권의 교환사용을 하며, 장거리 이용자는 휴게소 이용하지 않을 수 없다. 따라서 본 실시예의 중앙제어부(30)에서 산출된 정보를 통합운영시스템(50)에 전송하게 되며, 휴게소 출입에 등록된 차량정보의 검색만으로 통행권 교환 사용 여부를 확인이 가능하다. 예를 들어, 상행선에 위치한 휴게소를 들른 차량이 하행선의 톨게이트를 빠져나가는 경우에는 통행권 교환이 있었다고 판단할 수 있다.The exemption of toll tickets is mainly for long-distance users in exchange of tolls to reduce tolls, and long-distance users must use rest areas. Therefore, the information calculated by the central control unit 30 of the present embodiment is transmitted to the integrated operation system 50, and it is possible to confirm whether to use the right of exchange of exchange only by searching for the vehicle information registered at the entrance to the rest area. For example, when a vehicle that stops at a rest stop located on an upward line exits the toll gate of an downward line, it may be determined that there has been an exchange of passes.
본 발명은 상술한 실시예에 한정되지 않으며, 본 발명의 사상을 변형하여 사용하는 것이 가능하다. 예를 들어, 구간 단속 및/또는 통행권 면탈 방지 시스템 등은 휴게소 상황정보를 이용하는 것과는 별개로 독립적으로 구성하여 적용하는 것도 가능하다This invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, It is possible to modify and use the thought of this invention. For example, the section crackdown and / or the exemption from the right to pass can be configured and applied independently from using the rest area information.
