Hardware Implementation of Intelligent Traffic Light Controller

Abstract

Traffic signal controller is playing more and more important roles in modern management and controls of urban traffic to reduce the accident and traffic jam in road. The traffic light controller is a sequential machine to be analyzed and programmed through a multi step process. The device that involves a analysis of existing sequential machines in traffic lights controllers, timing and syhronization and introduction of operation and flashing light synthesis sequence. The methods that are used in this project are design the circuit, write a coding, simulation, synthesis and implement in hardware. In this project, QuartussII Software was chosen to design a schematic using schematic edit, writes a coding using Verilog HDL (Hardware Description Language)text editor and implements the circuit using gate logic.
