INTRODUCTION In the rapidly flourishing country like ours, accidents at rail road crossing are increasing day by day.

The train accidents cause severe damage to life and property.

This project deals with one of the efficient method to avoid train accidents.

The main aim of this project is to automize the unmanned railway gate.

The gate is closed automatically whenever the train comes and is opened after the train leaves the railway-road crossing

We used 2 sensors in our project sensor 1and sensor 2. The sensor consists at IR LED and photodiode. In our project we also used 2 DC motor (DC motor 1 and DC motor 2). The DC motor rotates forward and reverse direction. The IR LED emitted IR range light when this light incidence to coming train the obstacle occurs its reflected back then photodiode detects the light signal then according to detectors the light signal converts to electrical signal i.e. the voltage becomes high its high voltage fed to the microcontroller specified pin. Then the system executed and DC motor 1 rotates in forward and the DC motor 2 rotates reverse direction. Then the railway gate closes. When the train passed out from our project place the photodiode doesn’t receive any signal then the voltage becomes low and DC motor 1 rotate reverse and DC motor 2 rotates forward and the railway gate open.

IR SENSORThis circuit has two stages: a transmitter unit and a receiver unit. (1) IR TRANSMITTER:The IR LED emitting infrared light is placed in the transmitting unit generate IR signal.(2) IR RECEIVER:The receiver unit consists of a sensor, which detects IR pulses transmitted by IR- LED.

OBSTACLE DETECTOR

Obstacle detector build is a combination of IR LED and PHOTODIODE with interfacing of OPM

A direct current (DC) motor is a fairly simple electric motor that uses electricity and a magnetic field to produce torque, which causes it to turn.

This DC or direct current motor works on the principal, when a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a torque and has a tendency to move.

Embedded C is a nothing but a subset of c language is compatible with certain microcontrollers.

some features are added some header files like <avr/io.h>,<until/delay.h> scanf() and printf() are removed as the inputs are scanned from the sensors and output are given to the ports. control structure remain the same like if statement ,for loop, do while etc.

EMBEDED C

PROGRAMMING FOR AUTOMATIC RAILWAY GATE CONTROL PROJECT:- #include<avr/io.h> void main() DDRC=0b0000000; //set PORTC as input port DDRB=0b00011110; //PB1, PB2, PB3, PB4 as output port int ls=1, rs=1; // define & initialize ls, rs integer as 1 to

// acquire the left sensor status in ls an right sensor // status in rs

while(1) // create infinite loop

ls=(PINC&0b0000010); //acquire only left sensor status connected at PC1 rs=(PINC&0b0000100); // acquire only right sensor status connected at PC2

ADVANTAGESPrevention of accidents inside the gate.

Reliable machine, which operates the railway gate even without gatekeeper which makes it useful for operation at unmanned crossings.

Power supply for the motor operation and signal lights is required.

Battery which is charged by means of a solar cell can be used in remote areas where the power supply can’t be expected.

DISADVANTAGESTo establish the entire network it is quite a costly task. Since these are the issues of the government cost doesn’t matter a lot.

The Arduino board is a delicate device so it has to be handled carefully.

05/03/2023 31

Avoids manual errors and provides ultimate safety to road users. Gatekeeper not necessary and automatic operation of the gate through the motor. The mechanism works on a simple principle.
