This document describes an automatic traffic light system. It discusses the components used in the circuit diagram, including resistors, capacitors, IC555 timer, transistor, dim lights, diode, battery, circuit board, and voltage regulator. It explains how the system works using a 4017 counter IC and 555 timer to control when the red, yellow, and green lights glow based on traffic density detected by surveillance cameras. The system aims to efficiently control traffic flow and prevent jams.

AUTOMATIC TRAFFIC LIGHTS
Presented by:D.Akshay kumar
HT NO:17B45A0202 ABSTRACT The traffic signals are also know as signal lig hts, lamps. The traffic signals are first installed in 1868 i
n London. Now used almost every city of world. Traffic lights alternate the right way accordin
g to road users by displaying lights of colors
(Red, Yellow, Green). INTRODUCTION Traffic signals are one of the most effective a nd flexible active control of traffic and widely used in several cites world wide. The conflicts arising from movements of traffi
c in different direction is addressed by time s
haring principle. CIRCUIT DIAGRAM Components: 1. Resistors. (100k,10k) 2. Capacitors. (1000mF,470mF,0.1mF) 3. IC555 timer. 4. Transistor. 5. Dim lights. (15W,230V) 6. Diode. 7. Battery. 8. Circuit Board. 9. Connecting wires. 10.Voltage regulator 7805. PROCEDURE: The traffics obtained from surveillance camer a though continuous video processing. To calculate the density ,an image from the c
amera is used to calculate the number of vehi
cles in each lane. Working Concept: The traffic lights, main IC is 4017 counter IC which is used to glow the red, yellow, gr een. 555 timer acts a pulse generator. Timi ng of glow of certain lights totally depends upon the 555 timers. Advantages Provisions for pedestrians to cross the street saf ely. Potential reduction of accidents. Possible reduction in delay. Disadvantages: Large stop time delay. Complex signals design problem. FUTURE SCOPE Automatic generation of e-Challan Real time traffic information update on tr

Detection of other emergency vehicles Conclusion Thus from above theory we can conclude that using the method of density based control of traffic lights we can save a considerable amount of time and also we ca n prevent excessive traffic jams thus leading to smooth traffic flow. Thank you
