WAY TO GREEN: INTELLIGENT TRAFFIC CONTROL WITH VANET

Today unmanaged traffic is generating many problems to the public such as having to wait for so much time in the intersections, accidents to the careless driver behavior etc.. An efficient and intelligent traffic control that incorporates pedestrians and vehicles are required. This paper explores the idea of using vehicle information to enhance efficient traffic signaling. For areas where there is no traffic light control, V2V communication can be used to avoid accidents. The paper mainly focuses on controlling the traffic light based on the density of vehicles and warning the drivers regarding the pedestrians and buildings in the way using an object detection method.
