Smart Car

[Gaurav]

Hi All,

 

Today i came up with the idea of Smart Car.

 

Main aim of trhis idea is to get vision on the Autonomus Vehical.

 

The idea is like to make any Vehical fully Automatic like as an Input we should required to give Destination Location & then vehical should start to go towards that location Safely.

 

give your views.

Mr. Gaurav,

such a car already exists. google has made an autonomous car called “GOOGLE DRIVERLESS CAR”. search for it by the same name.

it was successfully tested on the roads of nevada, US.

Hi,

What kind of sensor are you going to use with the vehicle, need to sense the road, speed, direction etc..

[Gaurav]

Hi Ajish,

 

its just my Idea but i have basic structure of the same in my mind as mentioned below:

 

Input Modules:

 

1. GPS Module- for Providing real time co ordinates of current location & Previous Location.

2. Ultrasonic Sensors – to Controll the speed & Dirction & also to ensure safe distance from other vehicals.

3. IR LED based sensor to detect road or we can also use image processing based sensors to detect the road.

 

Processing Module:

 

1. Any High Speed Processor which Can collect and process real time data with its priority from above mentioned sensor modules.

 

Output:

 

1. Output Module is like Servo controlling unit to control the stearing wheel based on the processed inputs from GPS & Ultrasonic sensors.

2. electromechanical system controlled by Processor to control the brakes & Accelirator.

 

looking forward to hear from you……

 

basically the idea is to make cheaper autonoumos car for commercial purpose.

also i think you will need GPRS module so you can send your current location and reciev the desiered location from aremot user on computer and you have to choose  between sending data over ip or using messaging 

 

 

 

actually i’m in a team trieng to do such car

Hi Gaurav,

Your idea sounds very good and practical. I suggest you to use image processing other than poor IR sensing. You have to use DSP’s if you are implementing the image processing. For all others I think any common microcontroller would do.

Now my question is that, we all have been hearing about this kind of vehicle and projects since a very long time. But they still remain as prototypes only. So how do you plan to make your project stand out of the others and become a practical one for real vehicles and real roadways.

Hey Alfred,

Thanks for your reply.

speaking frankly i don’t haev that much money to afford my ideas & even time i am just an ECE engineer working for one company to survive & in my time I just think about these all ideas and really I am publishing them for someone who can afford it & implement it for good causes if any one of it is impleented by anyone it will be good for all human beigns. 

To implement this Idea I am thinking to make all modules working then will Assemble them on real car.

the most important thing is to controll stearing using servo mechanism. so have thought of design it first.

second step is interfacing of GPS system with Processor to trigger main Program.

 

Structure will be like first user has to enter security Codes & destination location then Program will be initiated.

Program will Check for surround & check current Location then virtually creat destination path using maps then DPS’s image processing will controll stearing, Brakes & Accelerator & parallely GPS will continuosly check for co-ordinates.

 

I think this ssystem should be multi processor system.

Hey Mohamad,

Glad to Know that someone is implementing it.

Can you share your Structure to implement it.

Google car is good but there are lots of disadvantages in it.
