Electronic Solution to Address Traffic Issues Near Bus Stops

The common scene of metrocity is traffic congestion observed all over the world. The common reason is the public waiting for bus. Buses/lorries are the common vehicle use in transportation for short distances in cities. People usually have tendency to stand outside the bus stop on the road. This blocks the way for the bus to stop in front of the bus stop and so it has to stop in the middle of the road, blocking the traffic. Presented research work is focused to inform and aware people to stand inside the bus stop. For that three different methods are implemented. First one is by using image processing. This is working in real time. It detects the face of people standing on road and raise pre-recorded voice when observed for five second continuously. The second is by using ultrasonic sensors. This will send ultrasonic wave using transmitter and receive the wave from receiver. The time elapsed between the transmission of wave and receiving of wave is entered as an input. It is then taken is processed to calculate the distance of people from sensor and if it is greater than the pre-defined value then a prerecorded voice is raised to appeal people to move inside bus stop.
