Week 1

The team focused on completing the following tasks :  

- Team discussed methodology of the project. 

- Team discussed the materials and software implementation of the project.

- Team discussed the action plan and strategy for completing the project in due time.

- Team ensured the constant communication link between members of project. 

 

 Materials required to do the project :

- MikroC PRO software for creating Hex code

- Proteus Software

- PIC16F877A on Proteus 

- Crystal Oscillator on proteus

- Traffic lights on proteus.

- Laptop or computer.

Week 2

The basic process of the project was discussed :

the team downloaded the desired software needed to work with and after downloading, the team studied the basic functionalities of the PIC microcontroller PIC16F877A. The uses of the chips were studied and discussed and the members found it of the best match for the project. 

The team then started implementing the basic project on proteus software. In which 4 roads junction traffic was about to be controlled using automatic traffic control system. the team was able to draw the model of 4 road junction on proteus.

Week 3

 In this week the team started to work with the code to automate the traffic lights. The microC pro software was used to do the task. The group started to work and make up the code by assigning various pins of the PIC microcontroller PIC16F877A to the traffic light 1,2,3,4 and then triggering them using code logic. 

At the end of the week, code was developed for the 4 roads junction traffic light control.

Week 4

 In this week the group started to implement the model for 5 roads junction, the code was modified and 5th traffic light was added. 

4 junction model 

5 junction Model 

The code run successfully also for the 5 junction model and the project task on software was accomplished after through working.

Week 5

 In the final week of the project, the key task of the project was completed and tested several times, group members are now working on finalising the poster and the blog for the coming bench inspection day and to present the project and all required stuff in that day.
