Speed Detection System for Rash Driving

This document proposes a speed checker device to detect rash driving on highways. It would use a pair of infrared sensors on either side of the road to calculate the time taken for a vehicle to travel between them. This time would then be used to calculate and display the vehicle's speed. If the speed exceeds the limit, a buzzer would sound to alert authorities. The design could later integrate a camera to capture number plates of speeding vehicles.

SPEED CHECKER TO DETECT RASH DRIVING ON

HIGHWAYS

ABSTRACT

The aim of this project is to develop a device to detect rash driving on highways and to

alert the traffic authorities in case of 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 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.

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.

This concept can be extended in future by integrating a camera with the system which

could capture the image of the number plate of the vehicle to sends that to the traffic authorities.
