METHOD FOR TRAFFIC CONTROL

摘要

Described is a method to optimize traffic light activity and minimize traffic congestion. Traffic conditions are monitored by sensors and a controller dynamically controls the green light time to account for traffic conditions and enhance the traffic flow. In one example, the green light time of each lane is reduced or increased according to traffic flow in the lane.
