Smart controlling for traffic light time

Abstract

Traffic jam and traffic accidents become serious problems especially in crowded cities, which wasting time and money. Traffic light is basic element in control traffic flow through specify waiting and going time, fixed traffic light time systems is bad control way, since number of cars is not consistency with each traffic light, thus lead to imbalance system. Intelligent transportation system including smart way to control traffic light time based on number of cars in each traffic light, this paper develops an automatic algorithm to control traffic light time based on artificial intelligent techniques and image for cars on traffic lights, this algorithm is validated by compare its results with manual results. Applying following proposed algorithm in transportation system will regulate traffic flow and reduce traveling and waiting time wasted in roads.
