The article briefly presents the main results of an applied research project to the professional public. The project output is a solution that enables the recognition of selected types of traffic signs using artificial intelligence for image recognition. This computationally intensive process is implemented in mobile phones. In order to achieve the involvement of the general public in the collection of data on transport infrastructure, the entire solution is part of navigation for mobile phones and supported by two functions that motivate users to collect data, i.e., scan the area in front of the vehicle with the phone's camera. The first function is the projection of the route into the real environment (the so-called augmented reality mode), and the second function is the possibility of video recording the drive. The video recording is cryptographically signed to ensure authenticity in administrative or judicial proceedings, e.g., when proving the course and circumstances of a traffic accident. The collection of data on transport infrastructure is completely anonymous in compliance with applicable laws. The data about recognized traffic signs will not only serve the navigation provider to improve the user experience but the processed data will also be exported to community-created world maps (project OpenStreetMap).
