"Smart traffic lights" in the concept of "smart transport"

Abstract

The article deals with topical issues related to the use of artificial intelligence for the organization of traffic in order to improve transport safety and reduce congestion on highways. The smart traffic light system is described, which is focused on increasing road capacity, reducing accidents due to the system's ability to measure traffic congestion in real time and assess pedestrian congestion, based on which to choose the optimal mode of operation of a traffic light object. The importance of integrating the "smart traffic lights" system into existing traffic management mechanisms is discussed. The principle of operation of the "smart traffic light" is presented, including a description of various operating modes, and the procedure for the operation of the "smart traffic light" system is covered in detail. Both positive and negative aspects arising from the implementation of the smart traffic light system are analyzed. Keywords: artificial intelligence, automobile transport, "smart traffic light", "smart transport", traffic light object, traffic management.
