Vehicle speed measure using IR

Guided by, Presented by,

 Introduction
• To detect rash driving on highways and to alert the traffic
authorities wirelessly the speed details and any speed
violation. Accidents due to rash driving on highways are on
the rise and people are losing their lives because of others
mistakes. In the present system, to detect rash driving the
police has to use a handheld radar gun and then 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.
 Abstract
• A system designed to record and report on
discrete activities within a process is called as
Tracking System.
• we have to developed a methodology of vehicle
speed & direction system for robotics to control
and achieve accurate direction speed for a class of
non-linear systems in the presence of disturbances
and parameter variations by using wireless
communication technique.
 Proposed System
• In our proposed system we are going to detect
speed of vehicle crossing.
• While driving on highways, motorists should not
exceed the maximum speed limit permitted for
their vehicle.
• The system displays the time taken by the vehicle
in crossing this distance from one pair to the other
which indicates maximum speed

 Working
• The system basically comprises two IR LED’s
Transistor & receiver sensor pairs
• Microcontroller is used to IR sensor data
• Here speed is calculated from the well-known
formula of speed which is distance/time.
• If the vehicle exceeds the permissible speed Sound
an alarm and Speed is displayed on LCD module
 IR LED
• An IR LED, also known as IR transmitter, is a special
purpose LED that transmits infrared rays in the
range of 760 nm wavelength.
• Such LEDs are usually made of gallium arsenide or
aluminum gallium arsenide. They, along with IR
receivers, are commonly used as sensors.
 LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD)
• Most common LCDs connected to the
microcontrollers are 16x2 and20x2 displays. This
means 16 characters per line by 2 lines and 20
characters per line by 2 lines, respectively.
• The standard is referred to as HD44780U, which
refers to the controller chip which receives data
from an external source communicates directly
with the LCD.
 ADVANTAGES

• The circuit is also running on +5V which is easier

to generate.
• They reduce the risk of accidents.
• It is easy to implement.
• It reduce the effort of many men.
 DISADVANTAGES

• Sometimes the circuit got failure and causes

various problems.
 APPLICATION
• Bridge construction.
• Highways.
• Two lane road construction.
• Emergency response.
• Event Traffic control.
