Abstract: | Reliable and robust detection systems are the cornerstone in the efficient and proper functioning of vehicle infrastructure integration. This paper presents the design and implementation of a testbed for evaluating vehicular detection systems. The development of the testbed involved design of the hardware setup required for real‐time monitoring of the sensors, programming the devices for data capture, and development of algorithms to automate the analysis of the recorded data. The methodology used to calibrate and validate the algorithms to automate the analysis of the data is presented as well. Although the testbed is presented in the context of evaluation of video detection systems at signalized intersections, it can be used for evaluating any vehicular detection systems.
