Traffic Congestion Management at Road Intersections Using Wi-Fi Technology

Abstract

Traffic problems nowadays are increasing because of the growing number of vehicles and the limited resources provided by current infrastructures. This project develops a solution for traffic congestion at road intersections. The system tries to avoid congestion by alerting neighbor drivers over Wi-Fi connections, so that they choose alternative routes. The system is mainly based on cameras for monitoring and image processing unit for characterizing congestion level. The system will be supplied with solar power with battery backup to assure the working of it at nights.
