Abstract

This project is aimed at resolving severe traffic congestion in most cities across the world by using latest technologies. The world is heading towards IoT and shifting daily routine manual processes to automatic systems. Current traffic control system is based on fixed timer which becomes one of the main reasons of transport blockage. In order to overcome this problem, a framework has been designed to introduce the concept of smart traffic system which includes Internet of Things. The road side sensors attached to the Arduino Mega send information to the cloud using NodeMCU where decision is taken based on density, hence involving cloud computation to turn a particular signal green. Moreover, we have also dealt with emergency vehicles which bears the facility of turning signal green using either RFID system or GSM based mobile. Sound sensors are placed to confirm that the signal return to normal condition once the emergency vehicle has crossed the signal. Lastly, a geofencing based marketing app called “Brando” has been designed using android studio to provide location-based services from the nearest stations like shopping malls to the people on road on their respective mobile phones.
