Abstract :
The Intelligent Energy Efficient Traffic Safety & Alert System is the system for highways lighting that we called vehicle detection. This proposed study develops a system that would enable the efficient use of solar light poles with implementation of a solar system to achieve greater than ever electrical energy. The solar panel detect sun light and control solar system to achieve greater then ever electrical energy. The system consists of solar light poles deployed in dangerous portions of highways. These poles would be assembled in groups and each group will be equipped with a wireless sensor. The wireless sensor would serve for vehicle detection while the controller would be responsible of Switching on and off the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) of a group of poles. This system also provides smart traffic light control for narrow portion of highway as well as traffic jam alert for RTO via SMS and manage traffic. The architecture of the suggested system is introduced, its components, workflow and operating logic are detailed, and a cost study is conducted. The motivation behind this approach is to reduce accidents by lighting dangerous portions of highways that can be deadly with a reduced cost and along with an optimal and efficient use of solar energy. Also to increase the battery life of wireless sensors used some energy efficient strategy would be implemented.
