Design, Analysis and Fabrication of Automatic Braking System

Abstract

In this paper, we have discussed the design, analysis and fabrication of automatic braking system for a vehicle. The design process for a vehicle’s braking system has been studied thoroughly. Every step taken for fabrication of this prototype is based on the thorough study conducted. This task was divided into different stages which include analysis, design, fabrication, assembly, trial and finally the approval of the vehicle. This prototype uses batteries and a chain sprocket assembly as a power source to run the vehicle and a braking circuit attached to a pair of IR sensors. The design discussed in this paper increases the braking efficiency of the vehicle effectively. The design and analysis of the disc brake rotor have been conducted to select the suitable material for the disc brake. At the end of the design and analysis, the overall system has been implemented with a constructed work, tested working and perfectly functional prototype.
