The problem Adaptive traffic light control system solves

This system is a simple simulation of road traffic in crossroads. Our system aims to simulate an adaptive traffic control system that will automatically change the duration of the traffic light based on the traffic condition in a road. Here the system will change the time based on the count of vehicles present on a road. If a road has higher number of vehicles, the green light will be shown for more time and if road has very few vehicles, the green light will be shown for less time. In this system, we have simulated the road traffic and visualized traffic problems that may occur in crossroads.

Challenges we ran into

Some challenges we faced when developing this system are :

  1. We had ideas to implement various features in this system and to incorporate AI in this system but due to lack of time, we couldn't do proper research and develop the system completely.
  2. We also spent a lot of time debugging due to merge conflicts in our repository.
  3. We didn't have proper experience with pygame before so implementing our ideas properly was difficult.
  4. We couldn't develop proper assets for vehicles and background due to less time.
