Vol 7, No 2 (2022): Integrated Automatic Control Systems for Headlight Modes and Wiper Speed
Authors:- Radhika Patre, Kusum Jadav, Rohini Kumari
Abstract:- The focus of this research is on headlight modes and integrated automated control systems for wiper speed. When driving at night, the majority of motorists utilise their high lights. The individual moving in the other direction finds this uncomfortable. For a brief while, a bright glare blinds the motorist, which increases the risk of nighttime traffic accidents. The suggested solution automatically turns high beam into low beam to reduce glare in order to prevent such occurrences by detecting the approaching vehicle using an LDR sensor. The suggested model incorporates an automatic wiper system that uses a rain sensor to detect the rain and its density. Based on the rain density, the wiper speed is automatically adjusted as designed in order to prevent the issue. Alcohol is detected using a gas sensor, and if any is found, the machine will be shut down immediately.
