This is arduino based collision detection warning system. This kind of system is fastest growing safety feature in automotive industries. Such system enables vehicles to identify the chances of collision and give visual and audio warning to driver. So that driver can take necessary action to avoid collision. This project idea is based on arduino controller and the whole system will give you very good understanding that how this system works. The step by step method is explained so that you can make this system. The hardware connection, pin information and arduino program is explained clearly.
Step 1: Items and Material Required
Please gather the following items
- Computer :- This is required to write program and flash program to controller. Also you need to install arduino IDE which is available free at arduino website download section.
- Controller :- I used arduino micro-controller. This you can get at online seller like amazon etc.
- Sensor :- I used HR SC-04 ultrasonic sensor.
- Piezo Buzzer :- I used piezo buzzer to make audio warning.
- LED :- There is two type of LED i used to which is red LED and blue LED.
- Wires :- There were jumper wires required to make hardware connections. You need to take all type of jumper wires like both end male, both end female and one end male another end female type.
Step 2: Connect All Hardwares
The hardware you gather in first step, now connect all them to controller through wires.
Sensor to controller pin information :-
Sensor has four pins VCC, Trig, Echo and GND. Connect…
VCC pin to 5V on controller
GND pin to GND on controller
Trig pin to pin-7 on controller
Echo pin to pin-4 on controller
Piezo Buzzer to controller pin information :-
Piezo buzzer has two pin.
Connect one pin to pin-10 on controller
Connect another pin to GND on controller
Red LED to controller pin information :-
Red LED has two pin.
Connect one pin to pin-2 on controller
Connect another pin to GND on controller
Red LED to controller pin information :-
Red LED has two pin.
Connect one pin to pin-13 on controller
Connect another pin to GND on controller
Controller to Computer connection information :-
You have USB data cable that you got while buying arduino. By this data cable you connect computer to arduino board.Now launch the arduino IDE. After connecting to computer you must have to select board and port from menu.
please see the attached screen shot for the help.
