3. INTRODUCTION
Traditional traffic signals follow fixed timings , causing
congestion and delays.
Manual intervention is inefficient and labour intensive.
AI-driven traffic lights detect real-time traffic density and
adjust signals dynamically
This improves traffic flow ,reduces congestion , and enhances
road safety

7. PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
ISSUES WITH PREPLANNED TRAFFIC SIGNALS
Fixed Timing System: Green Signals operate on a fixed Schedule ,causing delays even when
traffic is low.
Inefficient Traffic flow : Vehicles must wait longer than necessary ,leading to congestion
and fuel wastage.
LIMITATIONS OF INDUCTOR-BASED SYSTEMS
Detection Issues: Inductive sensors fail to detect small vehicles like scooters and bikes.
Accuracy Problem :If a vehicle stops outside the sensor range ,it remains undetected.
Not Suitable for India : Majority of Indian vehicles are small cars and two-wheelers making
this system ineffective.
8. OBJECTIVE
• Reduce Congestion-Adaptive signal control to minimize traffic
delays
• Improve Safety-Efficient traffic flow reduces accidents and
emergency responses.
• Environmental Benefits-lower fuel consumption and
emissions by reducing idle time.
• Improve the overall efficiency-Real time data analysis for
optimized traffic movement.
9. PROPOSED METHODOLOGY
• User Input Collection
• Vehicle Detection and Counting - Utilize computer vision
techniques(eg.,YOLOv8) for real-time vehicle detection.
• Emergency Vehicle Detection - Create a separate model for
detecting emergency vehicles using image processing techniques.
• System Integration - Design a modular architecture for vehicle
detection , emergency vehicle prioritization , and traffic signal
control.
• Testing - Conduct extensive field tests to evaluate system
performance in real-world scenarios.
14. FUTURE SCOPE
• Smart city applications to improve overall traffic flow and
reduce congestion.
• Improved accuracy through training on larger and more
diverse datasets.
• Edge computing deployment on traffic cameras for reduced
latency.
• Cloud integration for scalable processing and storage.
• Collaboration with law enforcement for traffic violation
monitoring
15. CONCLUSION
The system encapsulates vehicle’s information with the use of object
detection algorithms. It helps in understanding traffic management
systems and drastically condenses the transit delay that is prevailing in the
cities. It detects and counts the number of emergency vehicles that are
approaching the signal in real time and alters the signal time to ensure
effective congestion handling. The experimental results show that the
parameters taken into consideration are suitable for real-time applications
as they are precise and fast responsive. We had discussed a number of
cases for handling collision which might arise in our system.
