System and method of adaptive controlling of traffic using camera data

A traffic controller comprising:

• memory having computer-readable instructions stored therein;
• and
• one or more processors configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to:
• receive traffic data from one or more sensors at an intersection, wherein the traffic data comprises data regarding objects at the intersection detected by the one or more sensors;
• detect, using the traffic data for a period of time, a pattern of movement of the objects on at least two roads of the intersection during the period of time, wherein the one or more processors are configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to detect the pattern by:
• analyzing the traffic data to determine a number of the objects at the intersection during the period of time;
• and
• detecting the pattern by determining a rate of change in the number of the objects relative to at least one variable;
• determine if the pattern is associated with one or more predetermined traffic patterns at the intersection;
• based on the determining, retrieve a current traffic control program implemented at the intersection;
• control traffic at the intersection by adjusting one or more parameters of the current traffic control program to yield a modified traffic control program, wherein the adjusting is based on the one or more predetermined traffic patterns;
• and
• store the modified traffic control program in a database for future use.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable instructions stored thereon, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• receive traffic data from one or more sensors at an intersection, wherein the traffic data comprises data regarding objects at the intersection detected by the one or more sensors;
• detect, using the traffic data for a period of time, a pattern of movement of the objects on at least two roads of the intersection during the period of time, wherein the execution of the computer-readable instructions by the one or more processors, further cause the one or more processors to detect the pattern by:
• analyzing the traffic data to determine a number of the objects at the intersection during the period of time;
• and
• detecting the pattern by determining a rate of change in the number of the objects relative to at least one variable;
• determine if the pattern is associated with one or more predetermined traffic patterns at the intersection;
• based on the determining, retrieve a current traffic control program implemented at the intersection;
• control traffic at the intersection by adjusting one or more parameters of the current traffic control program to yield a modified traffic control program, wherein the adjusting is based on the one or more predetermined traffic patterns;
• and
• store the modified traffic control program in a database for future use.
