Introduction
• One of the major problems faced in any metro city is traffic congestion.
Heavy traffic is a headache for each and every person driving the vehicle
and even to the traffic police in controlling the traffic.
• Traffic congestion has a negative impact on economy, the environment and
the overall quality of life.
• There are two ways through which traffic is been controlled
a) Manually
b) Systematically (Controllers)
a) One of the oldest ways of handling traffic was having a traffic policeman
deployed at each junction.
b) Traditional Traffic light controllers: It uses a fixed predetermined schedule for
traffic inflow for each direction.
• However the whole idea of a fixed time traffic light controller is not convenient for
cities where traffic flow is variable.
• For this reason a dynamic traffic control system is needed, which controls the
traffic signals according to the density of traffic.
• In our project we focus on optimization of traffic light using IR sensors and
Arduino UNO as a microcontroller.

Working
• This project works on the principle that when a car passes between the IR
transmitter and IR receiver, the IR light is blocked and as the result the
resistance of the photodiode increases. This change in resistance is
converted to electrical pulses, which is used to control traffic lights.
Components Used
• Arduino UNO
• IR Sensors (IR Transmitter & IR Receiver)
• LED’S (12)
• Resistors(1k ohm)
• Power Supply (5V)
• Jumping Wires

Conclusion & Future Work
• In this project we have studied the optimization of traffic light controller in
a City using IR sensors and microcontroller. By using this system we tried
to reduce the possibilities of traffic jams, caused by traffic lights and we
have successfully gets the results. Number of passing vehicle in the fixed
time slot on the road decide the density range of traffics and on the basis of
vehicle count microcontroller decide the traffic light delays for next
recording interval
• The proposed work in this project is to eliminate the traffic congestion
problem but still a lot of work can be done on this project or on the
other traffic problems.
• Improvements in this Project
• 1) We can use RFID Tags instead of IR sensors as there range is limited
so we can use RFID system.
• 2) We can use different Micro Controllers (Raspberry Pi,PIC
Microcontroller).
• 3) we can make a system for pedestrian path along with this project as well.
• 4) We can make a signal free system for an ambulance.
• 5) We can attach LCDs with signals with the following information (when
our signal is going to open and for how much time is going to be open).
