Speed Breaker Detection and Early Warning System

Abstract

The increasing number of speed breakers on roads shows a significant challenge for drivers, often leading to accidents and damage of vehicles due to sudden braking or failure to notice them in time. This paper proposes an innovative Speed Breaker Detection and Early Warning System designed to enhance road safety by alerting drivers of upcoming speed breakers [1]. The system leverages a combination of advanced sensor technologies, including LIDAR and ultrasonic sensors, along with GPS data to accurately detect speed breakers [2]. Upon detection, the system provides real-time alerts to drivers through an integrated onboard display and audio notifications, allowing for timely and controlled deceleration. Additionally, the system incorporates machine learning algorithms to improve detection accuracy and reduce false positives by analysing road patterns and vehicle dynamics. Field tests demonstrate the system's effectiveness in various road conditions, highlighting its potential to significantly reduce the risk of accidents and improve the overall driving experience. This research contributes to the development of intelligent transportation systems aimed at enhancing road safety and driver awareness.
