Tired of Traffic Jams?

This is the problem a team set out to tackle with their innovative approach to traffic management in Klang Valley. By using AI-powered solutions like dynamic road pricing and smart traffic lights, they aim to ease congestion and improve commuting efficiency.

 

What It Does:

  • Electronic Road Pricing (ERP): A dynamic pricing system to manage traffic flow.
  • Smart Traffic Lights: Interconnected systems that optimize traffic light timings.
  • AI-Powered Traffic Optimization: Analyzes data to identify hotspots and suggests best solutions.
  • Emergency Vehicle Priority: AI detects and prioritizes emergency vehicles.

 

Why It’s Amazing:

Crackholes enhances road safety, optimizes repair efficiency, and saves costs, paving the way for safer, smoother roads for everyone.

How can this project be taken to the next level?

  • Crowdsourced Traffic Data
    Allow users to contribute real-time data from their vehicles (e.g., through a mobile app), enhancing traffic flow analysis and improving prediction accuracy.
  • Public Transport Integration
    Link the system to public transportation schedules and optimize both car and bus/train timings, making the entire transportation network more synchronized and efficient.
  • Sustainability Metrics
    Implement AI that not only analyzes traffic congestion but also suggests sustainable alternatives, like cycling routes or walking paths, helping reduce carbon emissions.
