The Ford Traffic Sign Recognition system challenge. Man Vs. machine.

The Ford Traffic Sign Recognition system challenge. Man Vs. machine.

How would you test a technology that can read road signs? Tell us how you'd challenge the Ford Traffic Sign Recognition system on Facebook. At Ford, we're asking real people to test our technology. Max Besold and Jenny Heister, from the University of Vienna, decided to have Max compete with the Ford Traffic Sign Recognition system in a Focus. So they set up a series of real, fake and ludicrous road signs on a test track, then compared the observation powers of man and machine.
