Abstract: Traffico is an Arduino based Advanced Traffic Controller. The main idea of the project is to minimize the traffic in populated cities. The project focuses on monitoring and managing the moving traffic efficiently. This project is indigenously designed and developed for Indian Roads which helps densely populated area to clear the traffic and in the process, smoothens the traffic. There would be sensors attached to the cameras which would detect the density on the road, and according to the availability of the next signal it operates the signal, rather than the old school way of timing the signals. This is real-time signal management rather than the process of waiting for the signal to open even if the road is cleared. The use of Heat Maps enhances the view of roads and traffic. The project includes various features such as automatic traffic control system, CCTV monitoring etc which would be widely beneficial for managing the traffic. The inductive loop detector which is the most widely used sensor in modern traffic control systems will be used in the project.
