Threading implementation on different hardware for travel time estimation purpose

The travel time estimation is one of traffic management system which provide time taken from one point to another point. Travel time estimation system consists of an embedded platform with image sensor for detecting and tracking the vehicle. Due to limited resources of embedded board, it makes challenging to measure the travel time especially for fast moving vehicle. Capturing system required a high capturing rate of the camera to capture most current frame for fast moving vehicle. Threading is implemented in this system to improve embedded board resource utilization and input-output latency between camera and embedded board. In this paper, the threading technology is applied to two types of Raspberry Pi model and the performance of the embedded board is recorded and analyzed.
