RoadSafe – AI Traffic Analyzer is an intelligent computer vision–based system designed to enhance road safety by automatically monitoring and analyzing real-time traffic camera footage. The project uses advanced machine learning and deep learning techniques to detect accidents, identify risky driving behavior, and track vehicle movements without human supervision. By processing continuous video streams, the system can recognize events such as sudden stops, lane violations, collisions, overspeeding, and unusual driving patterns.
✅ 1. Problem Statement (100–120 words)
Road accidents are increasing due to overspeeding, distracted driving, and lack of real-time monitoring. Manual surveillance of traffic cameras is slow, error-prone, and requires continuous human attention, making it difficult to detect accidents instantly. Delays in identifying incidents lead to slow emergency response and increased casualties. Moreover, analyzing thousands of hours of video footage is nearly impossible for human operators. There is a need for an automated, intelligent system that can monitor traffic in real time, detect unsafe driving behavior, and send immediate alerts. RoadSafe aims to solve this by using AI and computer vision to improve road safety and reduce accident-related response time.
