U-TURN ACCIDENT PREVENTION SYSTEM
                                          CHAPTER 1
   INTRODUCTION
   We all are living in 21st century now and the population growth is increasing in a sharper rate. As the
   population is increasing day by day the chances of accident occurring is also increasing. Prevention of this
   meeting accidents are of great concern today.
   The main cause of all these accidents are negligence , negotiation of safety measures etc. As technology is
   getting advanced in a greater speed safety measures also being modified but still accidents are still
   happening.
   Earlier various steps were taken to prevent those accidents but still accidents were occurring at a higher
   rate. GPS(Global Positioning System) and GSM(Globalization Management System) wereintroduced but
   both of these were useful after accidents had happened as GPS is used to give information regarding the
   location and GSM is useful for sending messages from the users mobile to indicate the authority that
   accident happened.
   Buzzer and LEDs are used for indicating that accidents occurred but our proposed model is an exception to
   all this as it prevents the accident from occurring and thus saving lives. Our proposed model is an
   indication system that indicates accident may occur so that we can take necessary measures to avoid these
   accidents. Thus this is a one step towards life saving and its also on wehumans how we take care of our
   own safety asafety comes along with us.
   The constantly growing transport sector has resulted in an increase of the accidents every day. The
   accident mainly occurs due to our carelessness and breaking of traffic rules. Indirect left-turn treatments
   have been increasingly used as design alternatives to address problems that are associated with left-turn
   egress maneuvers from side streets or driveways at two-way stop-controlled intersections .
                                                                                                   Page 1
U-TURN ACCIDENT PREVENTION SYSTEM
   In this project, the proposed system aims to avoid collisions between vehicles mainly occurring in U-turn
   bends, hair-pin bends, short corners, blind curves, etc., by alerting the vehicle drivers about the accidents
   that might occur.
   If case of any vehicle breakdown or repair of the vehicle, the interrupt signal will be sent to the control
   room thereby the problems can be solved. The accidents due to the negligence of the driver are prevented
   by warning him through the buzzer and light indication.
   This system makes use of infrared sensor and other embedded systems. An accident avoidance system is
   an automobile safety system designed to reduce the severity of an accident. Many studies about the
   operational and safety effects of U-turns at signalized and non-signalized intersections have been
   conducted. Past results from researches have no evidence to prove that U-turns at signalized intersections
   present major safety or operational problem.
   On detecting the vehicle approaching from the other side the system provides a warning to the driver to
   avoid the mishap. By allocating the right of way to different sets of mutually compatible traffic
   movements during distinct time intervals the traffic signals have been effectively used to manage
   conflicting requirements for the use of road space.
   Considerable work has been done to develop various approaches in order to boost traffic efficiency, which
   can be categorized as fixed-time, traffic responsive and predictive control ones. However, few researches
   have been found to deal with heavy vehicle U-turns. This system focuses on providing an alternative
   design for accommodating a safe U-turn at a signalized intersection.
                                                                                                    Page 2
U-TURN ACCIDENT PREVENTION SYSTEM
   In developing country accident is main cause of death. The intensity of deaths are more in curved roads i.e
   mainly in U-Turn, Hairpin bend roads and mountain narrow roads. In this case the driver can’t see the
   vehicle coming from the other side.
   Because of which thousands are losing their lives in accident. The solution for this problem is alerting the
   driver about the vehicle coming from the other side.
   This is done by keeping the ir sensor on one side of the road before the curve and keeping LED light after
   the curve, so that vehicle coming from the one side of the road is sensed by the ir sensor and LED light
   glows at opposite side and buzzer start beeping sound.
    By looking at the LED light driver become alert and slow down the speed of vehicle.

   slippery roads.In curve roads the other road end of vehicle cannot seen bydriver. At night time
   accidentsmay happens by intensity ofhead light from opposite side of vehicles.
   Also, the lightintensity problem occurs both curved roads and mountain roads; Thousands of people lose
   their lives. The solution forthis problem is alerting the driver about the vehicle comingfrom opposite side.
   This is done by keeping an ultrasonicsensor in one side of theroad before the curve and keeping aLED
   light after the curve, so that if vehicle comes from one end of the curve sensor senses and LED light
   glowsat the opposite side.

    4. Kartik Venkata Mutya, Sandeep Rudra [4] has studied that road traffic accidents are being recognized
   as a major public health problem in numerous countries with alarmingly increasing fatalities in developing
   countries. Careless driving as a result of excessive waiting and blind corners is attributed as one of the
   most important factor for all road accidents.
   An estimated 1.2 million people lose their lives in road traffic crashes every year, and another 20 to
   50million are injured. A docile, economical mechanism top revent these road accidents is the need of the
   hour. It is hoped that the mechanism presented in this article would help in alleviating this concern
   especially in correspondence with large vehicle accidents on highways by being easily implemented in low
   and middle income countries.

   PROPOSED SYSTEM
    The mountain roads have numerous turns and blind spots. These spots are so dangerous at times that they
   cause accidents if not manoeuvred properly. Our system is such a system which will be beneficial in roads
   like these and will also reduce the number of accidents that occur often.
   Here we are considering hairpin curves where the driver of a vehicle has no idea whether there is any other
   vehicle coming from the other side or not. Thus, our system when fixed at these dangerous curves will
   have proximity sensors, signals (RGB LED) and a counter, to aid the drivers.
   The proximity sensor senses the vehicles, and the counter keeps the count of vehicles present in that
   particular turn, coming from a particular direction. Based on the data of the counter, the signal will change
   its color.
                                                                                                    Page 6

U-TURN ACCIDENT PREVENTION SYSTEM
   An AC adapter, AC/DC adapter, or AC/DC converter is a type of external power supply, often enclosed in
   a case similar to an AC plug. Other common names include plug pack, plug-in adapter, adapter
   block, domestic mains adapter, line power adapter, wall wart, power brick, wall charger, and power
   adapter.
   External power supplies are used both with equipment with no other source of power and with battery-
   powered equipment, where the supply, when plugged in, can sometimes charge the battery in addition to
   powering the equipment.
   Use of an external power supply allows portability of equipment powered either by mains or battery
   without the added bulk of internal power components, and makes it unnecessary to produce equipment for
   use only with a specified power source; the same device can be powered from 120 VAC or 230 VAC
   mains, vehicle or aircraft battery by using a different adapter.
   Another advantage of these designs can be increased safety; since the hazardous 120 or 240 volt mains
   power is transformed to a lower, safer voltage at the wall outlet and the appliance that is handled by the
   user is powered by this lower voltage.
   Originally, most AC/DC adapters were linear power supplies, containing a transformer to convert the
   mains electricity voltage to a lower voltage, a rectifier to convert it to pulsating DC, and a filter to smooth
   the pulsating waveform to DC, with residual ripple variations small enough to leave the powered device
   unaffected. Size and weight of the device was largely determined by the transformer, which in turn was
   determined by the power output and mains frequency. Ratings over a few watts made the devices too large
   and heavy to be physically supported by a wall outlet.
                                                                                                      Page 9
U-TURN ACCIDENT PREVENTION SYSTEM
   The output voltage of these adapters varied with load; for equipment requiring a more stable voltage,
   linear voltage regulator circuitry was added. Losses in the transformer and the linear regulator were
   considerable; efficiency was relatively low, and significant power dissipated as heat even when not driving
   a load.
   Early in the twenty-first century, switched-mode power supplies (SMPSs) became almost ubiquitous for
   this purpose. Mains voltage is rectified to a high direct voltage driving a switching circuit, which contains
   a transformer operating at a high frequency and outputs direct current at the desired voltage. The high-
   frequency ripple is more easily filtered out than mains-frequency. The high frequency allows the
   transformer to be small, which reduces its losses; and the switching regulator can be much more efficient
   than a linear regulator. The result is a much more efficient, smaller, and lighter device. Safety is ensured,
   as in the older linear circuit, because a transformer still provides galvanic isolation.
   A linear circuit must be designed for a specific, narrow range of input voltages (e.g., 220–240 VAC) and
   must use a transformer appropriate for the frequency (usually 50 or 60 Hz), but a switched-mode supply
   can work efficiently over a very wide range of voltages and frequencies; a single 100–240 VAC unit will
   handle almost any mains supply in the world.
   However, unless very carefully designed and using suitable components, switching adapters are more
   likely to fail than the older type, due in part to complex circuitry and the use of semiconductors.
   Unless designed well, these adapters may be easily damaged by overloads, even transient ones, which can
   come from lightning, brief mains overvoltage (sometimes caused by an incandescent light on the same
   power circuit failing), component degradation, etc.
                                                                                                     Page 10
U-TURN ACCIDENT PREVENTION SYSTEM
    A very common mode of failure is due to the use of electrolytic capacitors whose equivalent series
   resistance (ESR) increases with age; switching regulators are very sensitive to high ESR (the older linear
   circuit also used electrolytic capacitors, but the effect of degradation is much less dramatic). Well-
   designed circuits pay attention to the ESR, ripple current rating, pulse operation, and temperature rating of
   capacitors.
   Many inexpensive switched-mode AC adapters do not implement adequate filtering and/or shielding for
   electromagnetic interference that they generate. The nature of these high speed, high-energy switching
   designs is such that when these preventative measures are not implemented, relatively high energy
   harmonics can be generated, and radiated, well into the radio portion of the spectrum. The amount of RF
   energy typically decreases with frequency; so, for instance, interference in the medium wave (US AM)
   broadcast band in the one megahertz region may be strong, while interference with the FM broadcast band
   around 100 megahertz may be considerably less. Distance is a factor; the closer the interference is to a
   radio receiver, the more intense it will be. Even WiFi reception in the gigahertz range can be degraded if
   the receiving antennae are very close to a radiating AC adapter.
   A determination of if interference is coming from a specific AC adaptor can be made simply by
   unplugging the suspect adapter while observing the amount of interference received in the problem radio
   band. In a modern household or business environment, there may be multiple AC adapters in use; in such a
   case, unplug them all, then plug them back in one by one until the culprit or culprits is found.
                                                                                                      Page 11

   JUMPER WIRES
                           Fig. 4.2 Jumper Wires
   A jump wire (also known as jumper, jumper wire, jumper cable, DuPont wire or cable) is an electrical
   wire, or group of them in a cable, with a connector or pin at each end (or sometimes without them – simply
   "tinned"), which is normally used to interconnect the components of a breadboard or other prototype or
   test circuit, internally or with other equipment or components, without soldering.
   Individual jump wires are fitted by inserting their "end connectors" into the slots provided in a breadboard,
   the header connector of a circuit board, or a piece of test equipment .
                                                                                                    Page 12

   Schematic
   VCC and RY-VCC are also the power supply of the relay module. When you need to drive a
   large power load, you can take the jumper cap off and connect an extra power to RY-VCC to
   supply the relay; connect VCC to 5V of the MCU board to supply input signals.
   Input:
   VCC : Connected to positive supply voltage (supply power according to relay voltage)
   GND : Connected to negative supply voltage
   IN1: Signal triggering terminal 1 of relay module
   IN2: Signal triggering terminal 2 of relay module
   Output:
   Each submodular of the relay has one NC(nomalclose), one NO(nomalopen) and one
   COM(Common). So there are 2 NC, 2 NO and 2 COM of the channel relay in total. NC stands
   for the normal close port contact and the state without power; No stands for the normal open port
   contact and the state with power. COM means the common port. You can choose NC port or NO
   port according to whether power or not.
                                                                                                 Page 14
U-TURN ACCIDENT PREVENTION SYSTEM
   Experiment Principle:
   When a low level is supplied to signal terminal of the 2-channel relay, the LED at the output terminal will
   light up. Otherwise, it will turn off. If a periodic high and low level is supplied to the signal terminal, you
   can see the LED will cycle between on and off.
   Working Priciple
   See the picture below: A is an electromagnet, B armature, C spring, D moving contact, and E
   fixed contacts. There are two fixed contacts, a normally closed one and a normally open one.
   When the coil is not energized, the normally open contact is the one that is off, while the
   normally closed one is the other that is on.
   Add a certain voltage to the coil and some currents will pass through the coil thus generating the
   electromagnetic effect. So the armature overcomes the tension of the spring and is attracted to the
   core, thus closing the moving contact of the armature and the normally open contact (or you may
   say releasing the former and the normally closed contact). After the coil is de-energized, the
   electromagnetic force disappears and the armature moves back to the original position, releasing
   the moving contact and normally closed contact. The closing and releasing of the contacts results
   in power on and off of the circuit.
                                                                                                      Page 15

   IR Sensor
                                Fig 4.4 IR Sensor
   An infrared sensor is an electronic device, that emits in order to sense some aspects of the
   surroundings. An IR sensor can measure the heat of an object as well as detects the motion.
   These types of sensors measures only infrared radiation, rather than emitting it that is called as a
   passive IR sensor.
   Usually in the infrared spectrum, all the objects radiate some form of thermal radiations. These types of
   radiations are invisible to our eyes that can be detected by an infrared sensor. The emitter is simply an
   IR LED (Light Emitting Diode) and the detector is simply an IR photodiode which is sensitive to IR
   light of the same wavelength as that emitted by the IR LED. When IR light falls on the photodiode, the
   resistances and these output voltages, change in proportion to the magnitude of the IR light received.

   An IR sensor is a device which detects IR radiation falling on it. There are numerous types of IR
   sensors that are built and can be built depending on the application. Proximity sensors (Used in Touch
   Screen phones and Edge Avoiding Robots), contrast sensors (Used in Line Following Robots) and
   obstruction counters/sensors (Used for counting goods and in Burglar Alarms) are some examples,
   which use IR sensors.
   Working Mechanism
   An IR sensor is basically a device which consists of a pair of an IR LED and a photodiode which are
   collectively called a photo-coupler or an opto-coupler. The IR LED emits IR radiation, reception and/or
   intensity of reception of which by the photodiode dictates the output of the sensor. Now, there are so many
   ways by which the radiation may or may not be able to reach the photodiode.
   Direct incidence
    We may hold the IR LED directly in front of the photodiode, such that almost all the radiation emitted,
   reaches the photodiode. This creates an invisible line of IR radiation between the IR LED and the
   photodiode. Now, if an opaque object is placed obstructing this line, the radiation will not reach the
   photodiode and will get either reflected or absorbed by the obstructing object. This mechanism is used in
   object counters and burglar alarms.

   Indirect Incidence
    High school physics taught us that black color absorbs all radiation, and the color white reflects all
   radiation. We use this very knowledge to build our IR sensor. If we place the IR LED and the photodiode
   side by side, close together, the radiation from the IR LED will get emitted straight in the direction to
   which the IR LED is pointing towards, and so is the photodiode, and hence there will be no incidence of
   the radiation on the photodiode. Please refer to the right part of the illustration given below for better
   understanding. But, if we place an opaque object in front the two, two cases occur:
   Reflective Surface
    If the object is reflective, (White or some other light color), then most of the radiation will get reflected by
   it, and will get incident on the photodiode. For further understanding, please refer to the left part of the
   illustration below. Non-reflective Surface If the object is non-reflective, (Black or some other dark color),
   then most of the radiation will get absorbed by it, and will not become incident on the photodiode. It is
   similar to there being no surface (object) at all, for the sensor, as in both the cases, it does not receive any
   radiation.
                                                                                                       Page 18

         Buzzer
                                         Fig 4.5 Buzzer
   A buzzer or beeper is     an audio signaling       device, which   may   be mechanical, electromechanical,
   or piezoelectric (piezo for short).
   Typical uses of buzzers and beepers include alarm devices, timers, and confirmation of user input such as
   a mouse click or keystroke.
                                                                                                  Page 19

   Light Emitting Diode
          Fig. 4.6 LED Structure              Fig. 4.7 LED
   A light-emitting diode (LED) is a two-lead semiconductor light source. It is p-n junction diode that emits
   light when activated. The long terminal is positive and the short terminal is negative. When a suitable
   current is applied to the leads, electrons are able to recombine with electron holes within the device,
   releasing energy in the form of photons.
   This effect is called electroluminescence, and the color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the
   photon) is determined by the energy band gap of the semiconductor. LEDs are typically small (less than 1
   mm2) and integrated optical components may be used to shape the radiation pattern.
   Appearing as practical electronic components in 1962, the earliest LEDs emitted lowintensity infrared
   light. Infrared LEDs are still frequently used as transmitting elements in remote-control circuits, such as
   those in remote controls for a wide variety of consumer electronics. The first visible-light LEDs were of
   low intensity and limited to red. Modern LEDs are available across the visible, ultraviolet, and infrared
   wavelengths, with very high brightness.
                                                                                                     Page 20

   LEDs are versatile semiconductor with a number of attributes which make them perfect for most
   applications. Their features include:
          Long Life: LEDs can last over 100,000 hours (10+ years) if used at rated current
          No annoying flicker as we experience with fluorescent lamps.
          LEDs are impervious to heat, cold, shock and vibration.
          LEDs do not contain breakable glass.
          Solid-State, high shock and vibration resistant
          Extremely fast turn on/off times
          Low power consumption puts less load on the electrical systems increasing battery life.
   CAUTIONS:
   LEDs produce a focused light source and extra care should be used for your eyes ,though intensity is not
   very high. While testing the LEDs a resitance must be applied to it.Also, being a semiconductor device,
   they are sensitive to static charges.
                                                                                                     Page 21

   Conclusion
   The purpose of this project is to save thousands of precious lives and decrease the number
   of accidents in curve roads. This is possible by alerting the driver by means of LED light and
    buzzer which glows when vehicles comes from the other side of the curve. The vehicle is detected
   by the help of IR sensor. By this we can save thousands of lives in the curve roads.
