We introduce a new computer vision based system for robust traffic sign recognition and tracking. Such a system presents a vital support for driver assistance in an intelligent automotive. Firstly, a color based segmentation method is applied to generate traffic sign candidate regions. Secondly, the HoG features are extracted to encode the detected traffic signs and then generating the feature vector. This vector is used as an input to an SVM classifier to identify the traffic sign class. Finally, a tracking method based on optical flow is performed to ensure a continuous capture of the recognized traffic sign while accelerating the execution time. Our method affords high precision rates under different challenging conditions.
