Traffic Control Systems with Zigbee wireless controller
Zigbee wireless controller has emerged a new wireless technology which can consists of Zigbee wireless sensors as receiver as well as a transmitter. These sensor can be detected at a distance of 100m. This technology can be effectively used in traffic control systems.
Normally in traffic control, there will be a traffic police who controls the green, red and yellow signals according to the vehicle traffic. If there is no traffic police, some traffic junction will have only have timer enabled signals which will not be effective in traffic signal controls.
Here, we can use the Zigbee wireless sensors in the traffic sides, which will sense the traffic density and can be sent the detected signals to a central controller.
The sensed traffic density can be analysed using a microcontroller or FPGA kit, so that according the density in each of directions, the control signals can be generated. In this way we can generate accurate control signals for green, red and Orange (yellow).
This type of control can also be used to control the signals during emergency or VIP vehiles passing on the signal junctions.
Some of the other features of Zigbee controller(as switch)
A ZigBee Relay Controller is a device that is capable of wireless remote contact closure switching. ZigBee offers wireless serial communications, making it possible to remotely operate a switch using very short serial commands. A ZigBee Modem is required for wireless computer controlled switching. A ZigBee Modem plugs into the USB port of your computer and emulates a Com Port (also known as a virtual COM port). Your software simply opens the serial port and sends a few bytes of data. The ZigBee Modem handles all wireless communications to and from the remote device.

hi thanks for dropping by,
wow are you can make your own transmitter?? teach me plz,,, but just simple transmitter hehe cause I don't have a knowledge about that :D
Which application do u like to have transmitter?
please help me. I need full details about this project.
plzzzzzzzzzzzzz..
Sir i m a final year engineering student from India. was planning to do final year project using zigbee.. Sir i liked ur idea. can we use atmel mega32 microcontroller and MC13192 to implement this. can u please guide me by provididng further details on how u implemented this.
sir am doing final yr ece...
I need full details about this project.
this is interesting, my graduation project is actually based on this. i was just thinking of a way to sense traffic density.. using cameras and image processing doesn't seem like an option for two reasons.. i'm using very cheap PIC processors that doesn't have that much power. and two, i can't write an image processing software.. can you give me some pointers? thanks
how u will identify the number of vehicles .....with out having any tags inside the vehicle ( having tags in all vehicle is practically impossible) .....have you field tested your system
Dear Sir/madam:
I am doing a similar project to this Traffic Control Systems with Zigbee wireless controller as my final project before I can graduate.. Can you please give us more details on how you implement this?. You can contact me at qwerty_912@yahoo.com.. Your response will be greatly appreciated.
.,,this project is interesting,.. can u plz send me the full details of this project at my email: sagara_grace12@yahoo.com,..
Hello Sir,
Am a final year ECE student.the idea of the project is nice.am planning to do the project on zigbee module.could you please send me the full details of the project?And i even request you to send me other project ideas based on zigbee.my email id is ksindhu.reddy2009@gmail.com. I hope i get a response from your side in a postivie way.
Thank you in advance
Can anyone recommend the top performing IT automation system for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central MSP tool
? What is your best take in cost vs performance among those three? I need a good advice please... Thanks in advance!
sir....i am doing a project on "zigbee based food ordering system".i want to know how can i send the message from one zigbee node to second. and that message can shown on LCD screen...on IAR embedded workbench 8051 7.3 b
please reply me
9025043642
love29oct@gmail.com
sir i want to say that LCD screen is connected to second node.so that the message that is receive by the first node can be shown on the LCD screen
sir......iam doing zigbee based automatic meter reading system.....so plz send me the full details at: avi.cool884@yahoo.com .....plz send me sir.....
Hi sir.. i need to do projects based on zigbee.. so plz recommend any projects based on this with details.. plz mail me to ijohny136@gmail.com
Hai sir,
Iam a final year EIE student.the idea of the project is nice.Iam interested in this topic .could you please send me the full details of the project?And i even request you to send me other project ideas based on zigbee.
please mail me the topics as early as possible.My mail id is "naseera025@gmail .com"
thanq
how can we identify the traffic density and if the traffic density is same in all directions what u can do based on this.
i know that this zigbee bandwidth is only 20-250 kbps, then i think it will take some more time for processing.
plz take my doubts as positive and i desires that u will give me a positive response
i am also intersted in this project can u send me more details on my email id- acproject08301@gmail.com
thanks in advance
Hi Sir , I'm interested in this project. In colloboration with my university i'm working for Zigbee based traffic control using IR Sensors , so please help me with your guidance . I carry a project with me on MTSF too . . Hope you respond to this. Pls forward the details such as prototype to my mail address kishore91091@gmail.com
Sir i really like your idea regarding zigbee based traffic light control system. It woul be grateful of you if you could give further details on how to implement this project.
And sir is this zigbee based traffic light control system used in India?
hello sir, i want make a project using zigbee technology.
we are preparing an electronic menu of a restuarant.
where in every table has the menu. and the customer can order his items from his table only. directly to the kitchen.please give some idea to make it.
Awesome post... Thanks for sharing...
