Smart Traffic Signals For Emergency Vehicle

Abstract

India is a developing country with a rapidly in-creasing population. In terms of population, India is ranked second in the globe. The main motive is to provide a smart traffic signal for emergency vehicles. Each vehicle has a unique radio frequency identification (RFID) tag that makes it difficult to remove or destroy. One of the most difficulties that metro areas confront these days is traffic monitoring and management. We have proposed a mechanism in this manuscript to dynamically arrange traffic lights to eliminate traffic congestion and allow emergency vehicles to move freely on the route. Existing concepts include using timers for each phase of a traffic light or using electronic sensors to identify vehicles. When he notices the ambulance, the other option is to enlist the assistance of traffic cops. Proposed method uses an Arduino UNO microcontroller, the reader module, and a RFID tag to design the methodology in this manuscript. The RFID reader detects a RFID tag in its vicinity and sends the RFID tag number to the Arduino. Inside the RFID Tag is a coil and a chip. When this ID is in close contact to the scanner, electromagnetic induction induces electricity in the coil, which lights up the chip. When the ambulance or any emergency vehicle uses RFID tag to pass through signals, the signal turns green, while all other signals at the intersection remain red. This allows the ambulance or any emergency vehicle to pass without having to wait for a green signal in densely populated or congested locations.
