This document contains an Arduino code for a traffic light control system using an IR sensor. When an object is detected, it initiates a traffic light sequence with red, yellow, and green lights, including a dimming effect for the yellow light. The code sets up the necessary pins and runs the traffic light cycle with specific delays for each light state.
