AUTONOMOUS "CARDUINO” WITH TRAFFIC LIGHT SENSOR

Abstract

Car is one of the most used public transportation nowadays. People use it to support their daily activities. Due to availability and comfort factor, the number of car uses continues to increase from year to year. This causes the road to become full and dense while people want to reach their destinations as soon as possible. This makes people in a hurry and put aside the safety aspect that leads to the traffic accident. In order to solve this issue, Autonomous car is one great solution for almost all of these problems. This research will discuss the development of Autonomous car prototype based on Arduino Mega and Bluetooth Module. The prototype will move from the start point until finish according to the “line” given from the Android application. For the safety aspect, it able to detect object within some radius in order to prevent crashing. And in term of the traffic rules, it able to detect the traffic light to determine whether it will move or stop. This research will be able to reduce traffic accident that likely to happen in the road.
