Train Collision Avoidance & Crack Detection using GPS

Abstract

In this day’s people are using different transport systems from one place to another place. Among all the transportation people prefer public transport as their choice for safer journey. So the transportation department takes several checks to measure the safety of the people. The proposed system is for identify and avoid the cracks in railway tracks and collision in-order to prevent the accidents. In this paper to use crack detection and ZIGBEE sensor this will be placed in the train engine. By this if any train comes in the same track or if some crack is detected on the crack the rain starts to slow down and stop at respective point automatically and the place where the crack would be given to control room. In the train collision avoidance system if both the trains are in the same track the both ZIGBEE sensor senses the same signal from opposite train then it automatically applies break and stop the train at certain distance. The proposed system introduces trans receiver based technology, to prevent the trains accident. The ZIGBEE device is installed at each front-end of the locomotive. The main idea of the work is to avoid the train accidents and reduce the manual power.
