Automated Traffic Lighting System using IoT

Abstract

The increase of the World Population leads to an increase in the dependence of the population towards the fruits technology can offer such as Television, Air Conditioner, Smart Phones and Transport. When it comes towards the mode of transport , the population use their respective motor vehicles moving around instead of using the public means of transportation. This leads to the problem of too many vehicles and further the problem of Traffic Congestion comes to the surface. Traffic cramming is a counterfeit that happens due to the sudden increase in the vehicle population, longer trip times and increased vehicular queuing. This paper describes an Automated Traffic Lighting Algorithm which will use IOT to closely monitor the flow of traffic and will therefore replace the use of manual traffic controllers so that the traffic congestion could be decreased in a great manner.
