Abstract

Under the International Road Assessment Programme (iRAP, sponsorship of UK charity organization FIA Foundation for the Automobile and Society), led by AAM, JKR, JKJR, and Malaysia Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS), a series of road safety assessment activity over 3600 krn of road in Malaysia has been carried out. The current system being used to carry out the road safety assessment was found not adequate by MIROS. A cost effective, reliable and robust road survey data collection and analysis system is required by MIROS for this road rating assessment. As a sub-system of this required system, a computer system which is capable of real-time processing of multiple high definitions (HD) image streams is utterly needed to be designed and developed. Manager-worker pattern is an effective concurrent software programming technique that could utilize the available central processing unit (CPU) cores in a computer system. By implementing this programming pattern, the HD image capture, display and record process from multiple cameras streams can be processed concurrently and thus a result of better performance and lesser latency can be obtained. The system is then further developed with the enhancement of swipe gesture enabled graphical user interface (GUI). The CPU usage after running the GUI-based software for capturing, displaying and recording video from three cameras when using Intel i7-4700MQ with camera setting of 1080p resolution, 4096kbps bit rate , and 15 frames per second is 61%,
