TY - JOUR AU - AB - Background/Objectives: In a modern day vehicle, the safety of drivers and passengers are of utmost significance. With increase of traffic on roads, there are increased cases of accidents and mishaps which call for a robust driver and passenger assisting systems that can overcome and handle these situations eff ectively. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The work proposes an intelligent embedded system that assists the driver in avoiding a rear end collision with its on board diagnostics. It is a mechanism that monitors the braking intensity of vehicle and depending upon its intensity alerts the other vehicles that are immediately following. The device on the following vehicle immediately is activated to take decisions to avoid the impending collision. An accelerometer interfaced to ARM Cortex M0 microcontroller is a part of the transmitter devices that calculates the rate of deceleration and notifies the device on following vehicle by displaying it on the rear LED arrays and transmitting messages through IR communication. The receiver device is responsible to decode the message and follow a control algorithm based on many other parameters to either decelerate or stop the vehicle notifying the driver immediately. The system also hosts an on board Diagnostic system over CAN protocol that TI - An Intelligent Embedded Diagnostic System on CAN Protocol to Avoid Rear-End Collision of Vehicles JF - Indian Journal of Science and Technology DO - 10.17485/ijst/2015/v8i19/76700 DA - 2015-08-14 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/an-intelligent-embedded-diagnostic-system-on-can-protocol-to-avoid-GGXq4QKN5d DP - DeepDyve ER -
