Abstract

Everything is becoming smarter in the age of smart technology, and a smart transportation system is one area that will significantly impact how we live. This paper describes an Arduino Uno-based traffic light control system. The objective of this system is to offer advanced coordination and control to ensure that traffic flows as smoothly and safely as feasible. In this project, LED lights are used as indicators, and a microcontroller is used to automatically change the signal at a predetermined range with the daily technological breakthroughs. Instead of a timer, this traffic light management system will operate using a sensor, and Infrared (IR) sensors.
