ABSTRACT

Prediction of vehicle's dangerous driving conditions or maneuvers can help preventing accidents from taking place. One of the major causes of traffic accidents is a result of keeping no safe distance from neighboring vehicles while driving. If a system that warns drivers if they are heading too close and dangerously towards other vehicles is available, that would help reducing vehicles' accidents significantly. This system would be particularly useful in low visibility conditions, like fog and rain, which are also a cause of a large number of accidents.

In this system, each vehicle can calculate its relative position and velocity to other vehicles when the transmitted position and velocity of nearby vehicles are available. So, even if the driver has low visibility of other vehicles or if he loses concentration, then the system can issue a warning to alert the driver of possible unsafe driving conditions. Using Zigbee transceivers, this state is continuously transmitted to neighboring vehicles. The position and velocity along with ID of the vehicle is then transmitted to neighboring vehicles using a Zigbee transceiver .In the proposed navigation system, a low-cost GPS receiver measures the position of the vehicle. The ultrasonic sensor use to find the critical distance between any two adjacent vehicles. Also, GPS encoders are used to measure forward velocity of the vehicle.
