Researchers have developed a new computer vision system to automatically detect and analyze vehicle overtaking maneuvers from a bicycle's perspective. This system uses object detection and tracking, combined with geometric validation, to identify overtaking events from a single camera feed without requiring explicit calibration. The pipeline achieved high recall and zero false positives in validation, identifying overtaking intentions significantly before passage and providing measurements of lateral passing distance. This technology aims to remove the manual annotation bottleneck in naturalistic cycling safety research and enable scalable analysis of vehicle-bicycle interactions. AI
