Automatic Indication for Safe Two-Wheeler Riding S.Thamarai Chelve1 S.KaushikRathan2 1,2 Assistant Professor 1 Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering 2Department of Mechanical Engineering 1 SMIT, Mangadu, Chennai – India 2Panimalar Engineering College Chennai, India Abstract— The aim of this system is to indicate the exact fuel level in two- wheelers with display and voice alertness.

Moreover it will give the accurate information about the distance it might travel in future in accordance with the fuel present in the tank. In addition, it provides display and voice alertness to check the initial working conditions such as brake, headlight indicator, side stand, and air pressure in the tyer, while starting the two wheeler. The intimation will be given to the user about whether the pressure of air is less in the tyre and the condition of side stand while driving. The user will also be intimated while the indicator is not turned off after its purpose. The above conditions will also be given by voice alertness, so that accidents could be avoided. In case of bike theft, it can be tracked using GSM. The main objective of the project is to make the bike riders to be more cautious about the bike conditions in order to avoid accidents.

Key words: Level Sensors, Proximity Sensor, Pressure Sensor, LDR, GPS, GSM I. INTRODUCTION Accidents have become common due to lack of complete concentration of the two wheeler riders. Presently everything in the world has become automatic rather than manual. People nowadays are very reluctant to check the basic necessities, including their two wheelers. Due to this ignorance people are facing many hazards in day- to- day life. This project enables the two wheeler suburbanites (riders) to be cautious about the two wheeler’s condition during its start and on run, so that, it prevents any mishaps during their travel.

II. BLOCK DIAGRAM AVR 2560 is a high Performance, Low Power 8-Bit Microcontroller. It is 100 pin IC which has 54/86 Programmable I/O Lines. It performance speed is 0 16MHz @ 4.5V - 5.5V. All the four USART have different I/O registers which are used for transmission and reception purposes.

Level sensor detects the level of substances that flow, including liquids, slurries, granular materials, and powders. It requires minimal maintenance and care.

Proximity sensor detects objects without physical contact. A proximity sensor often emits an electromagnetic field or beam and look for changes in the field. Proximity Sensors provide high-speed response, compared with switches that require physical contact.

Light Dependent Resistor is a device which has a resistance which varies according to the amount of light falling on its surface. LDRs are often used in circuits where it is necessary to detect the presence of light, or the ambient level of light, often to create a light triggered switch.

Pressure sensor monitoring system is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on various types of vehicles.

Flex sensors are sensors that change in resistance depending upon the amount of the bend on the sensor. They convert the change in bend to electrical resistance - the more bend the more the resistance value. When the substrate is bent the sensor produces resistance output relative to the bend radius.

GSM is an open, digital cellular technology used for transmitting mobile voice and data services. It supports voice calls and data transfer speeds of up to 9.6 kbps, together with the transmission of SMS. GPS navigation system accurately calculates the location by receiving information from GPS satellites.

GPS devices have capabilities such as: maps, including Street maps, displayed in human readable format via text or in a graphical format.

RF Transmitter is an electronic device, which, usually with the aid of an antenna, propagates an electromagnetic signal such as radio, television, or other telecommunications. It can be used in the petrol bunks.

RF Receiver receives the modulated RF signal, and demodulates it. It is used in two-wheeler to know about the nearest petrol bunk.

LCDs of 16 x 2 intelligent alpha numeric dot matrix displays are capable of displaying 224 different characters and symbols. It requires a single power supply (+5V).

During the on start of the vehicle the initial conditions will be checked.

When the vehicle is ON first the fuel level in the tank will be intimated.

Next the condition of the brake, pressure, side stand and indicators will be intimated through voice.

While on run the air pressure in the tyre will be checked and will be intimated only in case of sudden reduction of the pressure (puncture).

The level of the fuel will be measured and the mileage it can travel will be displayed.

In case of low fuel level, with RF module the nearby fuel stations will be located and displayed.

Table 2: Comparison VI. CONCLUSION This system paves way for facilitating safe and comfortable ride for the suburbanites. The indicators installed will alert the suburbanites to reduce the incident of accidents to a complete level. It also helps the two wheelers to be in good condition and thereby reducing the maintenance cost offered by the user. This project enables the drive of the suburbanites to be safe and tension free.
