A hardware based approach in designing infrared traffic light system

Abstract

Nowadays, a traffic light is currently used to control the traffic at the road. The trend is clear that the technology of the traffic light is growing rapidly. However, there is still problem for the emergency vehicles to bypass when the traffic light is red. This is because the emergency vehicle is unable to reach the destination in short as well as there is an emergency case. So, the purpose of this project is to solve this problem. This paper presents the design of traffic light system that response for emergency vehicles to immediately bypass the traffic light. Hence, the emergency vehicle can reach the destination at the right time to save lives.
