Intelligent traffic management system for cross section of roads using computer vision

This paper includes the design and implementation of an intelligent and automated traffic control system which takes advantages of computer vision and image processing techniques. Along with conventional computer vision techniques, this paper introduces two new methods which has low processing cost. One of the methods has been constructed with the help of hardware and the other one is designed without hardware support. This is a complete traffic management system which has been able to reduce traffic jams and congestion on simulated environment. It detects the number of vehicles on each road and depending on the vehicles load on each road, this system assigns optimized amount of waiting time (red signal light) and running time (green signal light). This system…
