Automation of Traffic Control System Using Image Morphological Operations

Now a day’s traffic problems are increasing day by day and transport traffic is becoming a serious problem in the world. Various traffic monitoring systems have been developed. This paper presents the research on controlling the real-time traffic using various image processing techniques in which the pictures are captured using the webcam of various lanes of roads where traffic takes place. The counting of transport vehicles in each picture is computed using image processing techniques in the Matlab tool and the timer is allocated to lane based on a number of vehicles counted in the specific picture of the lane for showing the green signal to pass the vehicle. In this model LED’s are used to show the green and red signals and seven segments are used to show the decrementing timer of signal green.
