ABSTRACT
In the current situation the world is trouble by accidents which are primarily due to
human errors in judgment and hence thousands of lives are lost. These accidents can be
avoided if only there was a mechanism to alert the driver of approaching danger. This
can be done by monitoring the distance between nearby cars and alerting the driver
whenever the distance becomes too short. This is precisely the aim of this topic. In this
topic I propose the use of Bluetooth Technology by which we can control the speed of
the car whenever it comes dangerously close to any other vehicle up front, thereby
saving very many lives

INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction:
Since, Bluetooth devices are capable of communicating with eight other devices
simultaneously we can monitor and check the speeds of up to eight cars simultaneously,
thus preventing accidents. Thus, if we have two Bluetooth enabled devices in two cars the
devices automatically communicate with each other when they come in the range of up to
100 meters of each other. The range is dependent on the power class of the product. Power
transmission rates vary in many Bluetooth devices depending upon the power saving
features available in a particular unit, bandwidth requirements, transmission distance. The
statistics of road accidents is tremendous and highlights the need for such a system. The
following is a statistic on the number of road accidents occurring each year.
As India sees a sharp rise in sale of personal vehicles, it is witnessing another unfortunate
rise in number of deaths in road mishaps. It’s is estimated that around 1,05,000 deaths are
reported every year due to accidents by the World Health Organization (WHO) in its report
on “Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020”. The proposed model is devised to
reduce the number of road accidents it uses Bluetooth which is a short-range radio link
intended to replace the cable(s) connecting portable and/or fixed electronic devices. Its key
features are robustness, low complexity, low cost and low power requirements. At any time
instant the, Bluetooth devices can communicate with eight other similar devices hence
8 cars enabled with Bluetooth can communicate with each other within a distance of 100
meters.
1.2 Block Diagram:
Power transmission rates vary in many Bluetooth devices depending upon the power saving
features available in a particular unit, bandwidth requirements and transmission distance.
The block diagram of the proposed idea is given in fig 1.1. We can use this feature of
Bluetooth to avoid accidents, when any car comes closer to the other than the specified
distance limit, the driver will be given warning about the same and the speed of the car will

be decreased only if the speed of the car or any other in the radius of 100 m is more than
40kmph. If the speed is less, then the driver will only be indicated about the nearby cars.

BLUETOOTH
2.1 Bluetooth:
Bluetooth has been designed to operate in noisy radio frequency environments and uses a
fast acknowledgment and a frequency-hopping scheme to make the communications link
robust, communication-wise and to transmit a signal. Bluetooth radio modules avoid
interference from other signals by hopping to a new frequency after transmitting or
receiving a packet when compared with other systems operating in the same frequency
band, the Bluetooth radio typically hops faster and uses shorter packets. This is because
short packages and fast hopping limit the impact of microwave ovens and other sources of
disturbances. Use of Forwarding Error Correction (FEC) limits the impact of random noise
on long-distance links.
The communication is subjected to noise and interference, as the 2.4 GHz frequency is
shared between all the devices in piconet. By employing spectrum spreading the Bluetooth
specification the it hops among different frequencies very quickly. There are 79 hops
starting at 2.402 GHz and stopping at 2.480 GHz, each of which is displaced by 1 MHz
Bluetooth avoids interference by hopping around these 79 Frequencies 1600 times per
second. So in order to avoid it we use Bluetooth equipped car, in which each car has
Bluetooth transmitter and receiver. And every car should have minicomputer to monitor
the relative position of the car with the other car as shown in fig 2.1.

2.4 RFID:
Radio frequency identification is a technique used for tracking and identification of
obstacles using radio waves. It consists of readers & tags. Most of the RFID tags contain
an Integrated circuit for storing & processing the information and modulates and
demodulates the signal.

OPERATION
3.1 Operation:
Because of traveling at high speeds there is a possibility of having accident. The figure 2
shows that when two cars or more come within the distance of 10 km at high speeds there
is a possibility of having accidents. The Bluetooth radio is a short distance, low power radio
operating in the unlicensed spectrum of 2.4 GHz and using a nominal antenna power of 20
dBm.

Radio communication is subjected to noise and interference, as the 2.4 GHz frequencies is
shared between the all device in piconet. So the Bluetooth specification has solved this
problem by employing what is called as spectrum spreading, in which the Bluetooth radio
hops among different frequencies very quickly. There are 79 hops starting at 2.402 GHz
and stopping at 2.480 GHz, each of which is displaced by 1 MHz. The Bluetooth avoids
interference by hoping around these 79 frequencies 1600 times per second. So in order to
avoid it we use bluetooth equipped car, in which each car have bluetooth transmitter and
receiver. And the every car should have mini computer to monitor the relative position of
the car with the other car. The Bluetooth radio is a short distance, low power radio operating
in the unlicensed spectrum of 2.4 GHz and using a nominal antenna power of 20 dB. The
modulation used in Bluetooth is Gaussian frequency shift keying, in which zeros are
represented by low frequency and ones are represented by high frequency as shown in the
figure.

DRUM BRAKES:
A drum brake is a brake that uses friction caused by a set of shoes or pads that press
outward against a rotating cylinder-shaped part called a brake drum.
The term drum brake usually means a brake in which shoes press on the inner surface of
the drum. When shoes press on the outside of the drum, it is usually called a clasp brake. Where
the drum is pinched between two shoes, similar to a conventional disc brake, it is sometimes
called a pinch drum brake, though such brakes are relatively rare. A related type called a band
brake uses a flexible belt or "band" wrapping around the outside of a drum.

EMERGENCY BRAKES:
The emergency brake bypasses your vehicle's hydraulic brake system to lock the wheels
in place. This mechanical system uses cables that are attached to the emergency brake lever.
When engaged on cars with drum brakes, the cables pull another lever that puts pressure on the
brake shoes to hold the vehicle.
MASTER CYLINDER:
The master cylinder, also known as the master brake cylinder, converts the pressure on the
brake pedal to hydraulic pressure by feeding brake fluid into the brake circuit and controlling this
according to the mechanical force...
PEDAL:
The master cylinder transmits hydraulic pressure to the slave cylinder when the pedal is
pressed. When you push the brake pedal it depresses a piston in the master cylinder , forcing fluid
along the pipe. The fluid travels to slave cylinders at each wheel and fills them, forcing pistons
out to apply the brakes.
BOOSTER:
A brake booster, also known as a 'brake servo' or 'vacuum booster', does exactly as the
name suggests, it helps to 'boost' the performance of the brakes. A brake booster makes it easier
for the driver to brake by increasing the force exerted without the need for additional force
applied on the foot pedal.
COMBO VALVE:
A Brake Combination Valve is exactly what it sounds like. It is a single unit that performs
multiple functions. Its job is to achieve Balanced Braking.Combination valves are often just
called “proportioning valves.” However, in reality, they do more. They are usually installed on
vehicles with front disc and rear drum brakes.
LINES:
The brake lines play a key role in your vehicle's overall brake performance and function,
allowing your car to turn pedal pressure into stopping power. Most cars feature hydraulic brake
systems, which use fluid to transfer the pressure applied by your foot to the brake. This is where
your brake lines come into play.

AUTOMATIC BRAKE SYSTEM
4.1 Introduction:
The automatic brake system is the next generation braking system for controlling the speed
of the car. On receiving the control signal from the traveling car the computer inside the
car manipulates the signal and gives control signal to the braking system.
There are four main components to an automatic braking system:
Speed Sensors
Pump
Valves
Controller
13
Bluetooth Enabled Braking System For Accident Prevention
The following steps show the various functions of the hydraulic valves:
In position one, the valve is open; pressure from the master cylinder is passed right
through to the brake.
In position two, the valve blocks the line, isolating that brake from the master
cylinder. This prevents the pressure from rising further should the driver push the
brake pedal harder.
In position three, the valve releases some of the pressure from the brake.
4.3 Anti-lock Braking System:
Since data is transferred over radio waves using Bluetooth, it is much easier for a intruder
to break into the secure wireless networks formed by the interlinking network of cars.
Thus, if this happens then anyone can tamper with the settings and this could lead to
accidents. The idea is to use encryption algorithms in order to send the data which will
provide security and act as an obstacle for hackers to tamper with the control of the car.
Data Transfer Rate is the data sent between two Bluetooth devices has a maximum transfer
speed of one megabyte per second.
4.4 QUESTIONS OF SECURITY:
Since data is transferred over radio waves using Bluetooth, it is much easier for a hacker
to break into the secure wireless networks. Thus, if this happens then anyone can tamper
with the settings and this could lead to accidents. Solution: we can use various encryption
algorithms in order to send the data which will provide security and act as an obstacle for
hackers to tamper with the control of the car. Data Transfer Rate is the data sent between
two Bluetooth devices has a maximum transfer speed of one megabyte per second. The
slow transfer speed makes Bluetooth not an ideal choice for data transfer when faster
connection methods are available. Solution: The data being transferred is approximately 1
megabyte so the speed is not a matter of concern. Moreover, the driver will be signaled at
an appropriate distance thus a delay of few seconds will not effect.

As of this writing, no other known system can match Bluetooth for the task at hand. When
talking about electronic exchange of information, one can differentiate between:
a) Technology (such as cable types, antennas, etc.)
b) Transmission media (such as optical, wave-carried or electronic)
c) Communication protocols (such as TCP/IP, etc.)
These three components are of course complementary on each other. One needs at least
one component from each group to get a complete, functioning system. Bluetooth is such
a complete system, where antennas, media and protocols are clearly specified. All
components are designed to work specifically with the other components, forming an
integrated whole.

CONCLUSION
The Bluetooth technology is being widely adopted by the industry leaders. The possibility
for new applications is very exciting with this versatile technology. It provides a simple,
logical answer to all the Problems which is built a single common radio into every mobile
computer then neither do companies have to worry about WAN, nor do communication
companies need to worry about building external cables.
The Bluetooth communication device will thus be a small, low powered radio in a chip that
will talk to other Bluetooth enabled products. Bluetooth has been designed to solve a
number of connectivity problems experienced by the mobile workers & consumers. Thus,
this technology helps make the electronic devices more user friendly and helps address
various other problems like accidents.
