In a landmark technological advancement using (AI), researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IIT-M) have developed a possible solution to traffic snarls on Indian roads through the use of a probe-based approach for real-time re-timing of traffic signals. This is probably the first time a probe-based, demand-responsive signal control has been developed for Indian conditions.
The researchers conducted a study in which travel-time data from four sample-probe vehicles were used to calculate Green and Red timings for each signal cycle. A signal cycle is the time between one green signal to the next green signal or one red signal to the next red signal for a selected movement.
The traffic composition in India is
