🚥ML Based Traffic Light Detection and IR Sensor Based Proximity Sensing for Autonomous Cars

less than 1 minute read

  • Used OpenCV2 library to build an automated system to detect and recognize traffic lights for an autonomous car.
  • Hough Gradient Descent was used to train the model, and Hough Circles were drawn around the detected traffic light.
  • IR sensor (interfaced with an Arduino Uno board) was used to monitor the distance between the autonomous car and nearby obstacles or traffic.
  • The system was live-tested on the streets of Bangalore, and excellent results were achieved.
