Traffic ControlMarie desJardins

Why I picked it: I hate sitting at traffic

lights and being stuck in traffic

If people spent less time idling, it would reduce greenhouse emissions and calm road rage

Computing: Adaptive traffic light timing Traffic intersection control

(see picture) Monitor traffic density

(google maps traffic option)
