Blind Zone Alert System using ZigBee based Wireless Sensor Network

Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 0

Abstract

The main purpose of this project is to detect and monitor objects within a predetermined distance from the vehicle that may be approaching its blind-spot. Moreover, the invention is particularly designed to be used for a vehicle that does not have a factory-equipped blind-spot detection system. This method and system utilizes two ultrasonic sensors for the vehicle to detect approaching objects, including other vehicles, pedestrians and other possible obstacles, in the blind-spot area. Due to the increasing number of sensors deployed in modern vehicles, intra-vehicular wireless sensor networks (IVWSNs) have recently received a lot of attention in the automotive industry, as they can reduce the amount of wiring harness inside a vehicle. By removing the wires, car manufacturers can reduce the weight of a vehicle and improve engine performance, fuel economy, and reliability. An example application, known as a side blind zone alert (SBZA) system, which monitors the blind zone of the vehicle and alerts the driver in a timely manner to prevent collisions, is discussed in this project. The performance of the IVWSN-based SBZA system is done with the help of ZigBee which are implemented on two moving vehicle modules.
