Abstract

Application of advanced breaking system using ultrasonic sensor in automobile is undertaken. An ultrasonic setup is placed in front of the vehicle and the setups consist of an emitter and a receiver. Ultrasonic emitter always emits the ultrasonic waves, whenever an obstacle is detected then the wave gets reflected and the receiver receives the signal. Reflected wave sends the signal to the Arduino Uno from that, based on distance of object, it actuates the buzzer or brakes. Ultrasonic Braking System (UBS) car provides the glimpse into the future of automotive safety. With the Ultrasonic Braking System (UBS), we can prevent more accident and save more lives.
