Project Description: As we know that light cannot travel in hazard environment like in fog conditions so probability of accident increases, but sound wave can travel in fog conditions so to minimize chances of accident we designed an ultrasound based distance informer vehicle. The robotic vehicle is made using ultrasonic sensor and it is controlled by Arduino microcontroller. Ultrasonic sensor fixed in front portion of the robot vehicle. The sensor gets the data from surrounding area through mounted sensors on the robot. The sensor is sense the obstacle and informs driver about it. The sensor will be send the data to the controller is compared with controller to decide the movement of the robot Wheel. Robot stops moving if obstacle comes in dangerous zone. A Bluetooth module is used to access distance of obstacle.
In today’s world as the population increases day by day the numbers of vehicles also increases on the roads and highways. This result in more accidents that interns lead to the traffic jams and public should get help instantaneously. Recent technological developments have made a lot of improvements in avoiding the accidents and ease human life. The obstacles which are the main reasons for accidents can be detected and accidents can be avoided. Distance measurement of an obstacle in front or by the side of a moving vehicle is required in the current traffic scenario. The devices used to measure the distance may be small or large and simple or complex. There are various different kinds of sensors available to perform this. In most of the applications, low cost, accuracy of the devices and speed to be considered. To measure the distance from obstacle, ultrasonic sensors play a vital role. Ultrasonic sensors are very flexible in distance measurement.
