Double-spectrum traffic incident detection method and device

The invention relates to a dual-spectrum traffic event detection method and device, belongs to the field of traffic event detection, and is used for solving the problem that it is difficult to detect a traffic event well in different light environments in the related art. The method and device comprise the steps that visible light image information and infrared light image information of a detection area are firstly obtained; then, according to the visible light image information and the infrared light image information, whether a traffic event occurs in the detection area is judged; and if the traffic event occurs,a notification message is generated and the video of the traffic event is stored. According to the method and the device, the visible light image information and the infrared light image information are matched to realize the detection of the traffic event, the detection effect is improved in different light environments, the detection of the traffic event can be better realized in different light
