    The document proposes a new traffic light control system that regulates lights based on real-time traffic intensity from sensors rather than a fixed schedule. It aims to make the system more flexible and reduce accidents. The current system uses a fixed timer that doesn't account for actual traffic levels. The proposed system would use infrared sensors and a microcontroller to dynamically adjust light durations for each lane based on recent traffic history to minimize waits. It would also enable priority passages and stop vehicles past the stop line. The team expects to implement it using embedded C on an AT89C52 microcontroller with support from an advisor.

    Synopsis

    On
    Traffic Light Control System

    Objective

    • The aim of this project is to automate all the functionality of the present
    traffic light management system more efficiently, by regulating the traffic
    lights based on the traffic intensity rather than fixed counter system.

    Current System

    • In the current system the traffic lights are managed by a fixed counter
    system.
    • Each four cross lane has a fixed counter system for its each lane, which has
    been fixed from the analysis of the previous history of the traffic intensity of
    that lane.

    Problems in the Current System

    • Less flexible as the traffic always has to wait for the same period of time. No
    matter what is the intensity the traffic.
    • No method to switch on the other lane traffic for which traffic light is red,
    although the lane for which traffic light is still green has no more traffic.
    Former traffic has to wait for the counter to go zero.
    • No method to stop the traffic if some VIP or emergency traffic (Ambulance,
    Police etc.) has to cross. Traffic police control the traffic in this special case.
    • This system also initiates the accidents as traffic doesn’t like to wait, and
    most of the traffic cross the traffic light.
    • Present system can not stop the traffic to cross the stop line.

    Solution Proposed in the New System

    • New system includes the present system of controlling the traffic, but the
    duration of counter for a particular lane is based on the traffic intensity of
    that lane.
    • It allocates maximum allowable counter time for each lane depending on the
    analysis of the previous history of the traffic for that lane.
    • It includes a flexible mechanism to automate the traffic system to allow the
    special traffic (VIP, Ambulance, etc.) to pass.
    • Special feature for the particular lane where the traffic cross the stop line.
    Such lane traffic will not be allowed to pass till they take their vehicle back
    from the stop line.
    • Since the traffic does not have to wait, so the chances of accident will also
    decreases.
