Miniature System of Innovated Traffic Lights Powered by Solar and Wind Energy Using Arduino System in San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan

Abstract

Commuters and drivers must deal with traffic congestion daily. Being stopped in traffic for an hour is a big pain, and it is inconvenient for individuals who have had a long day at work and just want to relax at home, or it can break the mood of people who are anxious to be there early. Illegal parking, narrow roads, malfunctioning traffic lights, a sudden stop of vehicles due to pedestrians or a breakdown, car accidents, and a rapid increase in the density of vehicles in one road lane that traffic lights cannot react to are just some of the factors that can cause traffic congestion in the Philippines.

As the problem on the road arises, a System of Innovated Traffic Lights Powered by Solar and Wind Energy Using an Arduino System has been proposed for the San Jose Del Monte Bulacan, keeping in view the risk and time consumed in traffic. This system deals with the traffic lights system. The system will detect the density of vehicles in all the lanes, and then it will open a lane that depends on the condition met by the system. This project study aims for a better and easier control of traffic that will result in less time consumed on traffic and the risk it has. The researchers used agile methodology, a people-focused and results-focused approach to software development that respects the rapidly changing world. It is centred on adaptive planning, self-organization, and short delivery times.
