This paper presents a development of a system of management and control of traffic congestion, the role of this system is to alert decision makers at every moment of the threshold value reached by traffic congestion to take the necessary measures to resolve the problems that appear in traffic jams. One of the modules of that system presents an optimization of vision based vehicle detection and vehicle counting. In this module we will develop a program that detects the vehicles, counts them and calculates speed of each vehicle. The algorithms were implemented in the system using Intel OpenCV library for image processing. The second task in this work is the implementation of the algorithm using Stratix III FPGA, Raspberry Pi B and Raspberry Pi B Camera.
