Development of Automated Braking System for Collision Avoidance of Vehicles

The main objective of this paper is to develop an automated braking system to avoid frontal collision of the vehicle due to driver inattentiveness. The working model comprises of automated braking system which includes ultrasonic sensor, bike brake system, high torque motor, microcontroller, motor driver, battery, double acting cylinder and solenoid valves. An algorithm is proposed for automated braking system. The proposed working model is validated with experimental results. The ultrasonic sensor is validated for distance measurement and the sensor predicts the distance with an error of 3.31%.
