This system enhances parking efficiency in malls and office
complexes by providing real-time parking availability updates.
As a car enters the parking area, a digital screen displays a live
parking map, where green areas indicate available spaces. An AI
system processes video input from cameras to update the
parking map dynamically, ensuring visitors can easily find vacant
Research Objective:
Objective of the Study
• To develop an AI-based dynamic traffic
management system.
• To utilize image recognition and real-time
traffic density detection for optimizing traffic

Problem Statement
Identified Problems in Current Traffic Systems
• Traffic Congestion: Increasing vehicle
ownership leads to overcrowded roads.
• Fixed Timer Signals: Current systems do not
adjust based on real-time traffic density.
• Unnecessary Wait Times: Vehicles stop at
signals even when lanes are empty.
• High Fuel Consumption & Costs: Prolonged
idling at traffic lights increases pollution
and costs.
• Limitations of Traditional Systems:
⚬ Manual Control: Requires extensive
manpower.
⚬ Sensor-based Control: Expensive and
sometimes inaccurate.
Proposed Solution
• Implement AI-driven traffic
management to dynamically
allocate green signal duration.
• Utilize image recognition and
live CCTV feeds to measure real-
time traffic density.
• Reduce delays, improve fuel
efficiency, and optimize traffic
flow dynamically.
