Abstract:

Traffic congestion is a major problem in cities of developing countries. Emergency vehicles need to reach their destination at the earliest. If a lot of time is spent in traffic jam, valued lives of many people may be in danger. In this system, the image sequences from a camera are analyzed using various edge detection and object counting methods to obtain the most efficient technique. Then, the number of vehicles at the intersection is evaluated and traffic is efficiently managed. The traffic signal indication continuously glows to green as long as the emergency vehicle is waiting at the traffic lane. After the vehicle crosses the junction, automatically the traffic signals follow the previous pattern generation of traffic signals.
