| 摘要： | The goal of this project was to achieve two objectives: (1) study the effectiveness of animal warning systems to detect wildlife on the roadside, (2) measure drivers response to the animal warnings signs. During this first phase, we have selected a site that covers roughly 5/8 of a mile of a section of State Route 3, on both sides of the road, near the town of Fort Jones in Northern California. Based on the characteristics of the chosen site, an animal detection system using break-a-beam microwave system was selected to provide input for our PAWS animal warning system. Then, the test-bed was constructed and the system was installed. Furthermore, we developed PAWS Monitoring system and PAWS Data Acquisition System (DAS). The PAWS Monitoring System provides a quick and easy way to see at a glance how all the System components are functioning. In addition, it allows researchers to quickly see if the PAWS animal warning system has detected any recent events. The PAWS Data Acquisition System (DAS) collects and archives the data that combines the triggers received from animal detectors to the animal warning signs with the data collected from the vehicular radars and videos to measure the driver's response to these warning signs. |
