Simulation of an Intelligent Traffic Light using Embedded System
Journal Title: Annals. Computer Science Series - Year 2018, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
The level of urbanization in developing nations indicates that more people live in cities than before. This increase heaviness on traffic flow and makes living in urban area complex. Traffic control at road junction which was done purely by human effort and expansion of roads remain inefficient owing to the increasing rate of both motorists as well as the complexity of road networks. This paper proposes that an intelligent traffic light in addition to existing traffic management techniques should be put in place to monitor traffic congestions. The traffic light system is designed using arduino uno microcontroller, ultrasonic sensor, liquid crystal display and light emitting diode (LED). For effective traffic control, the controller was programmed using C language. The designed traffic light control system was simulated on cardboard and using toy cars as model of the real vehicle.
