E-scooter Rider Detection System in Driving Environments

Indianapolis / E-scooters are ubiquitous and their number keeps escalating, increasing their interactions with other vehicles on the road. E-scooter riders have an atypical behavior that varies enormously from other vulnerable road users, creating new challenges for vehicle active safety systems and automated driving functionalities. The detection of e-scooter riders by other vehicles is the first step in taking care of the risks. This research presents a novel vision-based system to differentiate between e-scooter riders and regular pedestrians and a benchmark dataset for e-scooter riders in natural environments. An efficient system pipeline built using two existing state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks (CNN), You Only Look Once (YOLOv3) and MobileNetV2, performs detection of these vulnerable e-scooter riders.
