Abstract :
The technology of pneumatics of bumper plays impeccable for the a major role in the field of automation and modern machine shops and space robots. The aim is to design and develop a control system based intelligent electronically controlled automotive bumper activation and automatic pneumatic bumper system. This project consists of IR transmitter and Receiver circuit. Control Unit, Pneumaticbumper system and pneumatic braking system. The IR sensor senses the obstacle. There is any obstacle closer to the vehicle (within 3-4 feet), the control signal is given to the bumper activation system and also pneumatic braking system simultaneously. The pneumatic bumper and braking system is used to product the man and vehicle. This bumper and braking activation system is only activated the vehicle speed above 30-40 km per hour. This vehicle speed is sensed by the proximity sensor and this signal is given to the control unit and pneumatic bumper and braking activation system Most of the accidents in four wheeled vehicles occur because of failure of braking systems. Manual method of applying brakes is always dangerous as it leads to accidents. Unconsciousness of driver, failure in the linkages of braking systems, road conditions, uncontrollable speed of the vehicle and manual operation of braking systems are the reasons of accidents. It is necessary to control brakes automatically through electronics devices to minimize the accident problems. In this research paper we propose an effective methodology for automatic control of braking system to avoid accidents. In this technology we used Arduino, relays, IR transmitter and IR receiver for effective function of braking control system. This complete system can be fitted on to dashboard of a vehicle and effectively used for automatic control of braking system
