3. INTRODUCTION
The congestion has been
causing many critical problems and
most populated cities. To travel to
different places within the city is
becoming more difficult for the
traveler in traffic. Due to these
congestion problems, people lose
time, miss opportunities, and to traffic
congestions there is a loss in
productivity from workers, trade
opportunities are lost delivery gets
delayed, and there by the cost on
increasing.
4. HISTORY
A traffic light is a device that is designed to control the flow of traffic by using three
colored lights. These lights are mainly green, Yellow and Red. In 1860’s London,
the first traffic control device had arms that extended out to command drivers on
how to react at an intersection. The first four way three colour traffic light did not
come until December 1920’s in Detroit.

6. MICRO CONTROLLER
A microcontroller (or MCU, short
for microcontroller unit) is a small computer
on a single IC containing a processor core,
memory, and programmable input/output
peripherals. Program memory in the form of
RAM, NOR Flash or OTP ROM is also often
included on chip, as well as a typically small
amount of RAM. Microcontrollers are
designed for embedded applications, in
contrast to the microprocessors used in
personal computers or other general purpose
applications consisting of various discrete
chips.
11. ADVANTAGES
1. Reduction of vehicle-pedestrian conflicts.
2. Waiting time can be reduced or increased.
3. Duration of green light can be adapted to the users need.
12. CONCLUSION
Use of microcontroller instead of other controllers such as PLC makes the
smart traffic controller hardware a low cost system
The program downloaded into the microcontroller enables it to have a high
accuracy timing, high independency and consistently
It enables the proposed smart traffic controller system to realize traffic flow
optimization strategies at a single or network junctions
