Projects
Final Project:  A real/near-real time traffic signal timing optimization system that uses traffic data from APIs, mobile application
and computer vision, and controls timing by interfacing existing traffic signal hardware. Fetched Traffic Data from Google maps API,
Setup real time database in Firebase and created a script in python to collect the data at required intervals. Deployed the script on
azure container instance via docker. Created an android application to get GPS data from users and store it in Firebase. Interfacing
with the traffic signal control unit using plc to adjust the timing. Establishing communication between ESP-32s and raspberry pi at
the traffic junction and setting up their connection with the cloud server. Getting real time traffic data using cameras and computer
vision. Implement algorithm to optimize traffic signal timing using the collected data
