Crack Detection for Railway Tracks and Accident Prevention

Abstract

In this project, we are developing a system which can detect the cracks in tracks, derailment problems which helps to avoid accidents and collisionsthere by saving thousands of lives.The Speed of the train is reduced .Whenever there is human presence on tracks which can be detected using PIR sensors resulting in the suicides. Here we are going to use fire sensors to detect fire in the train. During the times of this Fire accidents an alarm (buzzer) is sounded which alerts the passengers. This project consists of GPS module, GSM modem, IR transmitter and receiver, PIR sensor,microcontroller, Fire sensor, Ultrasonic sensor. Collision mitigation avoidance system involves automatic braking in which if the sensor detects if there is any collision in the future and alarms the driver to take necessary action.If the driver shows no respond then it takes the complete charge of braking system and applies the brake, avoiding the collision. Required output is obtained by giving inputs to the microcontroller.
