PRISA: Proactive Infrastructure LiDAR Framework for Intersection Safety Assessment
Urban intersections are among the most hazardous locations in road networks, posing significant risks to vehicles and vulnerable road users (VRUs) such as pedestrians and cyclists. The complexity of multi-agent interactions demands continuous, real-time monitoring systems capable of anticipating conflicts before they escalate into crashes. We present PRISA, a modular infrastructure LiDAR framework leveraging privacy-preserving, low-light-robust roadside sensors for long-term traffic observation and real-time risk detection at the edge. The framework comprises two core components: a sensing and
CLIFE: Camera-LiDAR Fusion Framework for Edge-Deployable Roadside VRU Perception
Reliable roadside perception of vulnerable road users (VRUs) remains challenging under occlusions, variable lighting, and diverse weather conditions, particularly under strict edge-computing and latency constraints. Existing multi-sensor fusion systems rely on cloud or server-grade infrastructure, creating a deployment gap at real-world intersections. We present CLIFE, an edge-native camera-LiDAR fusion framework that integrates targetless online calibration and lightweight late-fusion tracking entirely on a single embedded device, without cloud offloading. CLIFE adaptively refines camera-LiDA
