1.2 OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT
The main objective of the study includes:
5 To investigate the practicality of the theoretical knowledge about these components to be used.
6 To experiment on the compatibility of the working relation between components to be used.
7 To investigate the extent to which the design and construction of the control unit can be useful to mankind.
8 To investigate the immediate usefulness of the control system as complimentary to traffic wardens.
1.3 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The
scope of this project is to enlighten all electronics students on the
use of microcontroller base traffic light (3-ways) and timer system in
T-junction. On the practical usage it is limited to the laboratory used
for reference purpose. The larger application of this project work is
found in most of our mega cities like Abuja, Lagos, Calabar, Enugu etc,
to control and manage heavy traffic congestion.
1.4 PROJECT REPORT ORGANIZATION
This
report is structured to follow the history and origin of traffic light
system all through the design and implementation phase. The report takes
into account the step-by-step process followed in order to arrive at
the final design.
Chapter one of this report introduces the concept
of the Traffic light system and its objectives. Chapter two centers on
the literature review, the origin and history of Traffic light systems
and its basic functionality. Chapter Three explains the components which
make up the Traffic light system and their basic functionalities/mode
of operation. Chapter Four discusses the design procedure, construction,
steps and packaging.
Chapter five handles the tests and results as well as conclusion and recommendation.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]T-junction traffic light controller is such a device that will play a significant role in controlling traffic at junctions, to ease the expected increased rush at such junctions and reduce to minimum disorderliness that may arise, as well as allowing the pedestrians a right of the way at intervals rather than being struck down when in a hurry to cross the roads. Such an electrical system with a touch of electronics that control the flow of traffic in a pre-determined sequential pattern at a junc ... Continue reading---
