Abstract

All roadway, public road, bike land, parking lot and private park area are introduced to a driver through line stripes using paint. This line stripe is important traffic element for safety and speedy movement of drivers. Such lines have to be redisplayed due to diverse reasons such as expansion and change of lines, and line-stripes must be removed in advanced to do so. Systems and methods for manufacturing such line-stripes are variously being automatized, but the removing process is still being performed manually in slow processing speed and many risks with environmental problems. And some of the methods used for removal do not completely remove the line-stripes, thus incompletely removed line stripes result in confusion with the new line stripes to a driver. Method of grinder and torch, the most common and traditional method for removing line-stripes, not only remove line stripes in the removing process, but also cause failures such as damages to the road which can be applied as unexpected physical and environmental risks to a driver. Besides, the traditional line stripe removal is done by partially isolating roads, and thus vehicular traffic can be influenced. The workers involved are also directly exposed to the traffic flow, increasing the occurrence level of negligent accidents, and due to a simply-repeated, manual-based process, there are differences in productivity and work quality depending on the workers in charge. According to research, traffic accident in construction section showed two times higher than non-construction section in freeway. So, to improve productivity of line stripes removal process, automated line stripe removal system previously researched was developed. Based on basic research stages, a possibility of the automatic line stripe removal system was confirmed through previous researches. Thus, the purpose of this research, as a research for improvement system and process in previous researches, is to develop automatic line stripe removal system with performances and features enhanced than that of the previous system.
