Abstract
We are very much aware of the fact that, the population of city and number of vehicles on the road are increasing day by day. With increasing urban population and hence the number of vehicles, need of controlling streets, highways and roads is major issue. The main reason behind today’s traffic problem is the techniques that are used for traffic management. Today’s traffic system is not enough to reduce traffic. If the traffic light timers are showing correct time to regulate the traffic, then the time wasted on unwanted green signals (green signal, when there is no traffic) will be saved. Timer for every lane is the simplest way to control traffic. And if those timers are predicting exact time then automatically the system will be more efficient. This paper represents the project that has been implemented by using the MATLAB software with GUI and it aims to prevent heavy traffic congestion. This project does not actually measure the number of vehicles present on the road, but measures the area covered by vehicles on the road. Moreover, for implementing this project following steps must be considered: 1) image acquisition 2) RGB to grayscale transformation 3) image enhancement. A web camera is placed in a traffic lane that will capture images of the road on which we want to control traffic. Then these images are efficiently processed to know the traffic density. According to the processed data from MATLAB, the controller will send the command to the timer to show particular time on the signal to manage traffic.
