A sensor based robotic model for vehicle collision reduction

摘要

This work presents an integrated monitoring system to avoid accidents or collisions between vehicles from both (front and back) sides. It can be used to save human lives from a number of road accidents. To demonstrate such a low cost system, a distance sensors framework, microcontroller, remotely controlled unit using radio frequency, and an alarm unit are utilized. A navigation approach of the robot is also described based on the range sensors. To verify the presented strategy, the experimental test has been carried out in a real environment by moving robot between different vehicles and objects.
