Speed limit detection with No
Passing Information
The concept
Speed limit detection
Speed limit detection uses a symbol in the
shape of a traffic sign to display the currently
detected speed limit. The camera at the base of
the interior rearview mirror detects traffic signs
at the edge of the road as well as variable over‐
head sign posts. Traffic signs with extra symbols
for wet road conditions, etc. are also detected
and compared with vehicle interior data, such as
for the rain sensor, and are displayed depending
on the situation. The system takes into account
the information stored in the navigation system
and also displays speed limits present on routes
without signs.
