Automatic Railway Gate and Crossing Control based Sensors & Microcontroller

Railroad related accidents are more dangerous than other transportation accidents in terms of severity and death rate etc. Therefore more efforts are necessary for improving safety. There are many railways crossing which are unmanned due to lock of manpower needed to fulfill the demands. Hence many accidents occur at such crossing since there is no one to take care of the functioning of the railway gate when a train approaches the crossing. The main objective of this paper is to manage the control system of railway gate using microcontroller. The proposed model has been designed using 8052 microcontroller to avoid railway accidents occurring at unattended railway gates if implemented detection of train approaching the gate can be sensed by means of two sensors placed on either side of the gate. This work utilizes the two sensors placed on either side of the gate. This work utilizes two powerful magnetic sensors is fixed at upside and similarly the other magnetic sensor is fixed at down side of the train direction. Sensors are fixed on both sides of the gate. We call the sensors along the train direction as foreside sensor and the other as after side sensor. When foreside sensor gets activated the sensed signal is sent to the microcontroller and the gate is closed and stays closed until the train crosses the gate and reaches after side sensors. When the side sensor activated and the signal about the departure is sent to the microcontroller motor turns in opposite direction and gate opens and motor stops automatically.

Arduino Based Automatic Railway Gate Control and Obstacle Detection System

In the rapidly flourishing countries accidents in the unmanned level crossings and due to obstacle on track are increasing day by day. No fruitful steps have been taken so far in these areas. Our project deals with automatic railway gate control at a level crossing replacing the gates operated by the gatekeepers and detection of obstacle on track By employing the automatic railway gate control at the level crossing the arrival of the train is detected by the sensors placed in the side of the tracks. Hence, the time for which it is closed is less compared to the manually operated gates. Detection of obstacle on railway track deals with two things, Firstly it senses the any obstacle on the track by using sensors placed on the front end of the train and Secondly, to convey the obstacle detection message to the nearby railway station through GSM technology. The proposed system uses infra red sensors to detect the arrival and departure of trains at the railway level crossing, ultrasonic sensor to detect the obstacle on the track, GSM to convey the obstacle message to the nearby railway station and Arduino to control the opening/closing of gates and to convey the obstacle message. The review of train accidents of the last 5 years (

In everywhere at level crossing between railroad and highway there are so many railway accidents happening due to the carelessness in manual operations or lack of workers. So, this paper describes the automatic railway gate control system using PIC microcontroller for saving precious human lives and preventing major disasters in railway track. Railway gate may be saved for the road users to prevent accidents in terms of train speed at level crossing. This system uses PIC 16F877A microcontroller with the help of sensors. It can divide into two parts. The first part is concern on the hardware development where all electronic components have included. IR sensors, inductive sensors are the input components while buzzer, light indicator, DC motor and LCD display are the output components. These are controlled by the controller circuit. The microcontroller forms the main unit of the system. It receives input signal from the sensors and sends information to the gate motor driver for openin...

Automatic Railway Gate Controller with HighSpeed Alerting System

International Journal of Advanced Research in Electrical, Electronics and Instrumentation Energy, 2015

The aim of the paper is to avoid the railway accidents happening at unattended railway gates by using ATMEGA_16 microcontroller, if implemented in spirit. The model of railway track controller is designed by using four laser light sources as transmitters and four LDR as receivers; two pair of transmitters and receivers are fixed at upside (from where the train comes) at a level higher than a human being in exact alignment and similarly the other pair is fixed at down side of the train direction. The collision of two trains due to the same track also can be happened. This model is implemented using sensor technique. We placed the sensors at a certain distance from the gate detects the approaching train and accordingly controls the operation of the gate. Also an indicator light has been provided to alert the motorists about the approaching train.

There are many railway crossings which are unmanned due to lack of manpower, needed to fulfill the demands. Hence, many accidents occur at such crossings, since there is no one to take care of the functioning of the railway gate when a train approaches the crossing.The objective of this paper is to manage the control system of railway gate using the microcontroller. The proposed model has been designed using 8052 microcontroller to avoid railway accidents occurring at unattended railway gates, if implemented detection of train approaching the gate can be sensed by means of two sensors placed on either side of the gate. This work utilizes two powerful magnetic sensors; one of these magnetic sensors is fixed at upside (from where the train comes) and similarly the other magnetic sensor is fixed at down side of the train direction. Sensors are fixed on both sides of the gate. We call the sensor along the train direction as 'foreside sensor' and the other as 'after side sensor'. When foreside sensor gets activated, the sensed signal is sent to the microcontroller and the gate motor is turned on in one direction by relay driver and the gate is closed and stays closed until the train crosses the gate and reaches after side sensors. When after side sensor gets activated and the signal about the departure is sent to the microcontroller, motor turns in opposite direction and gate opens and motor stops.

Now a day we are using over bridges for crossing the rail and manual controlling mechanism for the railway gates. But most of the passengers are not utilizing this facility and they will cross the rail directly and leads to accidents. Also the carelessness of the gate keeper or absence may lead to accidents at the railway crossings. In this project we are introducing a new intelligent platform which reduces accidents and make an easy passage for passengers from one platform to other platform and also an automatic railway gate which is controlled by a computer. The proposed system consists a detection system, microcontroller unit and motor driver system. The main advantages project is, it reduces the accidents at the railway crossing and platforms and provide an easy passage for the passengers.
