Project Idea
This project is an intelligent traffic signal controller that automatically adjusts signal timing based on real-time traffic density. Using IR sensors and an 8051 microcontroller, the system detects traffic flow as low, medium, or high and optimizes green light duration to reduce congestion, fuel consumption, and pollution.
