Smart Traffic Control Using Iot: Siddharth Subramanian

The document proposes a smart traffic control system using IoT technologies like traffic cameras, edge detection, and machine learning. The system would analyze real-time traffic data from cameras to identify vehicle density and occupancy. A Raspberry Pi would then control traffic lights based on the model's feedback to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion. This data-driven approach aims to prevent wasted green lights and optimize traffic decisions.

Smart Traffic Control

using IoT

Siddharth Subramanian
Introduction

With autonomous vehicles revolutionizing transport mobility


and moving towards the tipping point it is only natural that
experts are turning towards drastically rethinking traffic
management itself.
What exactly is demanding the
need for improvement?
➔ Poor traffic management

➔ Lesser use of automation tools

➔ High vehicle count

➔ Hard-coded traffic lights

➔ Large red-light delays


Internet of Things to the rescue.
(With a little help from machine learning)
But, how?
Let’s dive deep
Traffic Cameras
Installing cameras at all signal points
and junctions to constantly monitor
the vehicles.
Analyze Traffic
Constantly analyze real-time traffic
using edge detection and image
matching to identify the density of
vehicles on the road.
Raspberry Pi
Using a Raspberry Pi connected to 3
LEDs that can toggle the signals based
on the feedback received from the
model.
a) Vehicle
length
estimation

b) Sending
traffic update
on
occupancy
How this solves our problem
Prevent wasting Control traffic Provides data for
green lights on congestion on roads future road designs
empty roads
Traffic Congestion
Improved flow of traffic will result in
increased fuel efficiency in a
systematic manner due to the
reduction in traffic congestion.
Smart Traffic Decision
Being a creation of the big data analytics, it helps break
down loads of hefty information into chunks that can
help share necessary information across departments
and systems.
Conclusion
This provides real-time traffic monitoring for traffic
updates through roadside message units. The traffic
authorities can also broadcast messages on VIP visits,
medical emergencies, accidents, etc. to corresponding
message units, which will assist the public in decision
making and save their time on roads. The proposed
system uses magnetic sensor nodes to collect real-time
vehicle information.
