ABSTRACT :
An automatic system to avoid almost all the
means of accidence could be developed using an
integrated Smart System. The proposed method
uses a large number of topics such as alcohol
detection and sleep avoidance, speed
governance, driver authentication, temperature
control etc. Similarly by using this system 90%
of accidents caused by Lorries could prevented
and at the same time loss of properties such as
goods, vegetables, petrol, gasoline etc could be
avoided. This would ultimately help in prevent
in loss of damage and losses occurred by
accidents. This paper is a first of its kind.
Keywords: Alcohol detection, speed governance,
authentication system.
Existing system: The existing system only
consists of detecting whether the driver is drunk or
not by using manual alcohol detectors used by the
cops.So the new system already has automatically

always scans the person’s eyes for the blinks, if the
reason doesn’t blink, the system can’t wake him
up. And also if the tyres are in good condition or
punctured condition there are no sensors to alert
the persons so accidents are automatically
aggravated by this way.
There is no system to maintain the temperature of
the product in container, because of which due to
some disturbance in travelling the product under
goes tremendous change and the original form of
product is disturbed. There is no system for sensing
the storm sensor in order to avoid fire accidents by
lightening. There is no external; covering to the
container to avoid such accidents. There are
systems for speed governance but no system to
control the speed based on the load on the
container which protect the lorry from overturning
due to velocity greater than critical one. There is
no system to avoid corrosion by acid rains which
may affect the product in theContainer. There is no
system for authentication of drivers.However all
these flaws are eliminated by our system.

Along load weight sensor ultimately maintain the
speed based on the load in the container. All the
above mentioned systems are integrated by a micro
controller and thus synchronizing every systems
activity together. Hence this system would not
allow accidents because of the over speed due to
velocity greater than the critical velocity.

Proposed system:

BURST AVOIDANCE SYSTEM:
The temperature controller and burst avoidance
system aims on burst avoidance by sensing of the
current temperature and checking with the
abnormal change in temperature conditions inside
the container of the truck. A pipeline containing
water is been placed in the inner part of the
container and the water will be sprinkled based on
the intensity of the fire inside the system.
STORM & ACID RAIN RESISTANCE
SYSTEM:
The specialty of our system here is enabled in
order to protect the product from acid rain and at
the same time from storm lightening. When there is
acid rain the system would automatically cover up
the product by a special layer which would be inert
to acid rain. Ultimately it would protect he product
consistency. Similarly whenever there is
lightening, it could cause the product to burst out if
the product is inflammable in nature.
SPEED GOVERNANCE:
The speed governance system in this system is
different from the normal one that exists today.
This system governs the speed of the vehicle
depending on the load in the container. The torque
that is required is decided on the basis of the load
in the vehicle. The torque is directly dependent of
the load. This helps to control the critical velocity
of the vehicle on the drive over the curves
preventing it from overturning, thus preventing the
accidents on the road.
FUTURE WORKS
The future works related to this work can be that
the entire vehicle can be controlled on the basis of
the biometrics which could be used to control the
speed of the vehicle by brain activity. The pit
identifying system is would to developed in order
to identify pits in water stagnant conditions. An
idea of fully automated driving system is also to be
developed in future.. This would be implemented
in almost all the vehicles in the near future. by this
the Artificial intelligence system of vehicle could
take immediate actions in the case of accidents.
CONCLUSION:
Thus the system aims on 95% accident avoidance.
However the cost of implementation is bit costlier
than the normal price tag which could mostly
affordable for the projects of the government
related to the R&D. This system could be
converted to also a vehicle compatible with the
arms and ammunition which could be used in
military relating projects.
