Accident prevention by monitoring and control of vehicle tyre pressure using wear & tear and pressure sensor

Abstract

Maintaining Optimal tyre pressure is an important feature that paves the way for better control of the vehicle and thus improves the safety of the Vehicle and Humans. This paper aims to find the solutions in case of abnormal tyre pressure and hence ensure safety of the Vehicle. Reports from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) suggest that abnormal tyre pressure-related crashes cause 660 fatalities and 33,000 injuries every year. In order to ensure the safety of tyre and thereby the vehicle safety, pressure of the tyre is measured and monitored. In this project, the pressure and as well as the wear and tear in the vehicle’s tyre is also monitored and measured. The readings are sent to the controller and based on the value of the sensors the necessary ignition is controlled and in case of tyre pressure crossing the prescribed limits ignition is cut off and the vehicle comes to a halt in a safe manner and thus accident is prevented.The main aim of such a system is to add intelligence to vehicle and reduce number of accidents thus reducing the inconvenience during driving due to improper inflated tires The safety of the vehicle, durability of tires and vehicle’s fuel efficiency can thus be improved.
