Project Abstract
The major cause of accidents in India is drunken driving. This is also the major
cause of accidents in many other countries. This project deals with a system that
prevents the accidents that happen from drunk and drive.
The aim of the project is to design a system which is capable of monitoring
alcoholic driving. This system automatically controls the ignition system. The
system switches OFF the ignition system, if the person is alcoholic.
In this project we are using a micro controller to embed the program to receive
data from alcohol sensor. Alcohol sensor gives out analog data that cant be
analyzed by the microcontroller. So we use analog to digital converter to convert it
in to digital format. After that the data is stored and then compared to threshold
values if the value is beyond its limits then controller takes appropriate action.
Here in this project we are going to alert the driver if the digital value reaches
certain threshold by giving the buzzer sound, and turn OFF the ignition system if it
digital value is too high. By doing so we can stop the car and prevent accidents
that occur due to drink and drive. Here we are using motor driver to control the
ignition system. Through this kind of automation we can avoid the accidents that
happen from drunk and drive and provide a safety control system.
Project Title
List codes and standards
that significantly affect
your project.
This project consists of a sensor which gets heated when it detects alcohol
molecules. The sensor produces voltage depending on the concentration of
alcohol. The voltage from sensor is connected to ADC0804 which converts analog
voltage to digital. This digital voltage is given to microcontroller which controls
the ignition system. The LCD interface displays the status of the alcoholic person
and analog voltage from the sensor.
The project can be broadly divided into 3 sections
(1) Acquisition of data
(2) Conversion of data
(3) Controlling the system
The data (voltage) is acquired from sensor detection. And the data (Analog) is
converted into digital format. The data is given to the microcontroller which
controls the ignition system.
