As the traffic congestion increases on the transport network, Payable on the road to slower speeds, longer falter times, as a consequence bigger vehicular queuing, it's necessary to introduce smart way to reduce traffic. We are already edging closer to ``smart city-smart travel''. Today, a large number of smart phone applications and connected sat-naves will help get you to your destination in the quickest and easiest manner possible due to real-time data and communication from a host of sources. In present situation, traffic lights are used in each phase. The other way is to use electronic sensors and magnetic coils that detect the congestion frequency and monitor traffic, but found to be more expensive. Hence we propose a traffic control system using image processing techniques like edge detection. The vehicles will be detected using images instead of sensors. The cameras are installed alongside of the road and it will capture image sequence for every 40 seconds. The digital image processing techniques will be applied to analyse and process the image and according to that the traffic signal lights will be controlled.

This paper investigates several techniques that increase the accuracy of motion boundaries in estimated motion fields of a local dense estimation scheme. In particular, we examine two matching metrics, one is MSE in the image domain and the other one is a recently proposed multiresolution metric that has been shown to produce more accurate motion boundaries. We also examine several different edge-preserving filters. The edge-aware moving average filter, proposed in this paper, takes an input image and the result of an edge detection algorithm, and outputs an image that is smooth except at the detected edges. Compared to the adoption of edge-preserving filters, we find that matching metrics play a more important role in estimating accurate and compressible motion fields. Nevertheless, the proposed filter may provide further improvements in the accuracy of the motion boundaries. These findings can be very useful for a number of recently proposed scalable interactive video coding schemes.
