Traffic sign recognition systems require a high level of responsiveness and accuracy with limited use of computing resources. The process of image pre-processing precedes the process of directly recognizing images, therefore, the recognition results depend on its effectiveness. When conducting pre-processing, it is important to take into account the features of the subject area, within which recognition is performed. The article discusses the process of pre-processing and preparing images in the context of creating a system for recognizing road signs. The main problems that arise during the operation of such a system are identified. Their solutions are proposed. Own combination of these solutions allowed us to create a new system for recognizing road signs, which gives a gain in processing speed by cutting off images of no interest before entering the classifier, and also taking into account the peculiarities of operation in an urban environment – more difficult conditions compared with recognition of road signs on tracks or on artificially created training grounds.
