IOT Based Movable Road Divider
Project Area of Specialization Artificial IntelligenceProject SummaryRoad divider is generally used for dividing the Road for ongoing and incoming traffic.
This helps keeping the flow of traffic. Our idea is to formulate a mechanism of automated movable road divider that can shift lanes, so that we can have more number of lanes in the direction of the rush. The cumulative impact of the time and fuel that can be saved by adding even one extra lane to the direction of the rush will be significant.
- This proposed model can be operated automatically.
- More organized traffic flow can be achieved, reducing traffic jams.
- High traffic density can be detected and instant alert messages can be sent through Mobile Application.
The purpose of using road divider is to separating the two ways of traffic ie ongoing and incoming vehicles in the traffic. With growing population, the vehicles used per family increases, but there is limitation in resources and leads to more number of cars on roads. In that case static road divider fixes the number of road lines on either side of road. This invites the better usage of available resources. In most of the cities, there are areas like industrial and shopping places where traffic flows only in one direction both in morning as well as in evening. In the peak hours, most of the time one road side is unutilized. It causes time loss of public and traffic jams. We aim to build a smart road divider in terms of automated road divider which moves or shift the lane directing the rush in traffic. Such type of mechanism of traffic system not only saves time but also fuel. It can add one more lane based on the traffic in the particular direction. With the smarter planet application proposed below, manual dependency and manual traffic coordination is reduced. Like this a proposal of smart traffic is built in ehich low, medium and high density of rush in the traffic will be shown in IOT server in using graph. It provides a better solution for traffic problem.
Project Implementation MethodThe working process of our project the ir sensor sens the activity the road.If the road is jame or blocked then sensor send the sgnal for the servo motor and then the road divider shift to the another side.If the road jame on the right side sensor sense the activcity and send the signal to the motor and then the divider shift to the left side.exactly the road jame on left side sensor sense the activcity and send the signal to the motor and road divider shift to the right side.
Benefits of the ProjectBenefits of the Project
1) Reduces Congestion-Moveable divider gives more lanes to the peak traffic direction for AM and PM commuters.
2) Increase safety.
3) Decrease time travel.
4) Green Benefits include improved air quality, improved fuel efficiency, and reduced atmospheric CO 2 .
5) As the everyday traffic on an extension increments after some time, bridge experts must figure out how to increase the capacity of the bridge to coordinate the traffic stream. New development is amazingly costly, and in many cases, it isn't even an alternative. The savvy and assisted strategy for expanding bridge capacity is to make an overseen paths where the path arrangement of the extension is adaptable and extra paths are made accessible to the pinnacle traffic heading.
6) Small size road-As bridge cannot make on road having too small to moderate size, in this case our system can be implement easily on small road also.
Technical Details of Final DeliverableIn Conventional traffic signal system is predicated on fastened time idea assigned to every aspect of the junction that can't be varied as per varied traffic density. a while it'll be not give sufficient time to pass vehicles as a result of traffic light time is pre outline.
In now a day’s traffic downside square measure increasing thanks to the increasing range of vehicles and also the restricted resources provided by this infrastructure. Because of this, there's a desire to attend longer before of the signals.
In Pakistan is that the second most thickly settled Country within the World may be a quick growing economy. it's seeing exaggerated no of road congestion issues in its cities. Infrastructure growth is slow as compared to the expansion in range of vehicles, because of house and price constraints.
They propose a system for dominant the traffic signal by image process. The system can find vehicles through capture camera pictures rather than mistreatment electronic sensors embedded within the pavement.
