Abstract
Road accidents are a major cause of death and injuries causing disability throughout the world in both the developed and developing countries. Prevention of accident is quiet impossible but it can be reduced by proper design and control. To improve the reliability of public transport, this study proposes a Smart Traffic Control System (STCS). The main concept of STCS is to control real time traffic flow by distinguishing the emergency vehicle from other vehicles (green signal) at remote accident location to reach in time to hospital with the help of Vibration Sense Message Alert System (VSMAS). In proposed system, each vehicle includes VSMAS located inside the vehicle which senses the vibrations beyond the threshold level. When the vehicle collides, the information of remote location is updated to Emergency Service Centre (ESC). ESC connected to city traffic database automatically sends emergency vehicle to accident spot. In the path of emergency vehicle from origin to hospital via remote accident location, green signal and emergency signal are updated to confined traffic route. Traffic signal delays of the junctions will be modelled based on emergency vehicle movement controlled by ESC. RFID is attached to each traffic junction for estimation of congestion for smooth movement of emergency vehicle. The prototype was examined with various sequences of inputs in laboratory which demonstrates experimental results on Spartan3E FPGA.
