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.
