NOISE DETECTION SYSTEM

Abstract

Noise Pollution is a growing problem in Modern cities, thanks to rapid population growth, urbanization and new technologies. Moreover, at times, a noisy neighbor or co-worker can drive you crazy and affect your wellbeing. Traffic light control systems ar widely used to monitor and control the flow of automobiles through the junction of many roads. They aim to realize smooth motion of cars in the transportation routes. However, this system also leads to Noise Pollution which this present traffic signal doesn’t considers a problem. But any sound which crosses the parameter of 90 Hz is considered Noise which you’ll get to hear at each and every traffic signal present at every adjacent intersection. Exposure to prolonged or excessive noise has been shown to cause range of health problems ranging from stress, poor concentration, productivity loss in the workplace, and communication difficulties and fatigue from lack of sleep, to more serious issues such as cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment, tinnitus and hearing loss. Hence, to overcome all these problems and help our society we propose a system based on Arduino with High-end microphone sensors and our algorithm to detect and distinguish between Normal sound and Noise based on that decision Vehicle riders present at that traffic signal will be penalized with extra time to spend on that junction
