Smart Traffic Light Control System

Abstract

This paper describes the design and implementation of an autonomous traffic light system, with traffic-based timing for improving traffic flow efficiency in urban roads. The importance of changing light timing lengths of current traffic lights to timing lengths that vary depending on the number of vehicles in the avenues, and of how the proposed smart traffic light system would help to constantly update these times of automatic way is presented. To achieve this, an IoT system based on the Raspberry Pi platform and PIR sensor will be designed, with expandability in mind, as the design for implementing camera-related functions will be layed out.
