4. Project Motivation
A global phenomenon –
1.25 million die each year
in the world ( WHO –
2016 ) .
Number of road accident
increases in the eve of
festival
Table : September 7 to September 18
in 2016 (Eid-Ul-Adha Holidays)
5. Project Motivation
12000 lives and 35000 injuries annually ( ARI, 2016 )
Economic cost is 2 to 3% of the country’s GDP, an
enormous loss in health related cost (WHO, South
Asian Chapter, 2015 )
In Bangladesh, average 8 persons die everyday. (BRTA)
1 child is killed in road accident, every 3 minutes in the
world
6. What is Automatic Vehicle Brake System?
Automobile Safety System
Allows the wheels on a
motor vehicle to maintain
tractive contact
Prevents the wheels from
locking uo
Avoids uncontrolled
skidding
7. In case of manual brake, only
40% of the drivers apply brake
in accidental situations .
There were casualities about
2.6 millions last year due to
front end vehicle collison only.
Laboratory test result states
that, 47% of the impact collision
can be reduced using brake
automation. ( NHTSA- 2016)
Logic Behind Automation
9. HOW IT FUNCTIONS
• Emitter/Transducer:
Emits ultrasonic
waves frontward.
• Detector/ Receiver:
receives a reflective
ultrasonic wave signal.
• Detection pulse:
Measures the distance
between car and
obstacles
12. Advantages
It allows driver to maintain directional stability.
It is more helpful for new, inexperienced
drivers.
It controls over the steering to avoid unwanted
collision.
It is safe & effective.
13. Disadvantages
Difficult to sense from soft, curved, thin or
small objects.
It is very costly.
Maintenance cost of a car after equipped with
this technology rises higher.
