Design, Fabrication and Testing of Speed Monitoring System For Detecting Rash Driving On Highways

This document outlines a project to design and test a speed monitoring system to detect reckless driving on highways. The system aims to address the rising number of accidents due to speeding vehicles. It will use infrared sensors placed at fixed distances to calculate the speed of passing vehicles and alert authorities if any exceed the speed limit. The proposed methodology involves measuring the time taken for a vehicle to pass between two sensor points and using that to determine its speed. Hardware components like IR LEDs, photodiodes, timers and displays will be used. The project aims to reduce accidents and save lives by more effectively enforcing speed limits on highways.

Design, Fabrication and Testing of Speed Monitoring System For Detecting

Rash Driving on Highways

Background of the problem


In today’s scenario number of accidents due to vehicle are on the rise. As a result number of
causalities are increasing year by year. And also rate of introduction of new vehicles is also on a
rise. As a result an efficient mechanism is required to monitor and keep track of all these vehicles
on the road so as to ensure the safety of the public.

Reason for choosing this project


In country like India the continuous rise in number of accident due to rash driving, over-speeding
and violating traffic norms are claiming more lives, especially of youth between the age group of
15 and 42 years of age in the city.
Accidents due to over-speeding driving on highways are on the rise and people are losing their
lives because of others mistakes.

Objective and scope of the project

The aim of this project is to develop a device to detect over-speeding driving on highways and to
alert the traffic authorities in case of any speed violation.

In the present system, to detect rash driving the police has to use a handheld radar gun and aim at
the vehicle to record its speed. If the speed of the vehicle exceeds the speed limit, nearest police
station is informed to stop the speeding vehicle. This is an ineffective process as after detecting
one has to inform the same and a lot of time is wasted.

Methodology of project

The proposed system will check on rash driving by calculating the speed of a vehicle using the
time taken to travel between the two set points at a fixed distance. A set point consists of a pair
of sensors comprising of an IR transmitter and an IR receiver, each of which are installed on
either sides of the road. The speed limit is set by the police who use the system depending upon
the traffic at the very location.

The time taken by the vehicle to travel from one set point to the other is calculated by control
circuit. Based on that time it then calculates the speed and displays that on seven segment
displays. Moreover if the vehicle crosses the speed limit, a buzzer sounds alerting the police.

Hardware and software to be used


Hardware
 Capacitors
 Resistors
 LEDs
 Timer
 Decade Counters
 IR LED
 Photodiode

Contribution of project
Implementation of this project on large scale would result in reduction of no. of accidents and
therefore, result in saving numerous lives.
Saving life would add on to the strength of our nation.
