Abstract

The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for setting time of traffic lights in a smart city and an Internet of Things system. The method is implemented by an Internet of Things system for setting time of traffic lights in a smart city, which includes a user platform, a service platform, a management platform, a sensor network platform, and an object platform. The method includes: obtaining pedestrian information and intersection information of a target intersection, and the target intersection being an intersection provided with the traffic lights; determining, based on the pedestrian information and the intersection information, the scheme for setting time of the traffic lights at the target intersection; and sending a control instruction corresponding to the scheme for setting the time to the object platform, and in response to the received control instruction, controlling lighting duration of the traffic lights by the object platform.
