Abstract
Traffic is a major issue in any major city, and Hyderabad is no different. The Hyderabad traffic police commission is doing its best to control the traffic in the country with 2nd largest population in extreme conditions like heat and pollution. To help the traffic commission, who are controlling the traffic every day under the scorching sun, we have built a multi-purpose helmet that can help the traffic police while on duty. The helmet is installed with a camera and raspberry pi. Instead of using a handheld smartphone to take the picture of vehicles, the helmet snaps a high-resolution picture using a button. These pictures are sent to the AWS cloud using a pre-configured raspberry pi. These images are processed in the cloud where information like the number plate, color, and vehicle types is extracted. All these images can now be filtered according to date and time and viewed on a user-friendly interface.
