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.

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.
A Review Paper on "Smart Railway Crossing using Microcontroller
International Journal of Engineering Research and, 2020
The main purpose of this research paper is to reduce the railway accidents occurring at the level crossings (Intersection Points). Railway is the vast mode of the transportations in India and it is the cheapest way for travelling. So there are more numbers of rail users and it is not easy to stop railway anywhere to obstruct accident, due to that there are major drawbacks of that. At present anunmanned system is available at level crossings and hence, lots of accidents occur at such crossings, since there is no one to take responsibility of the functioning of the railway gate when a train reaching the crossing. The objective of this research paper is to handle and control the system of railway gate by applying the microcontroller. This model includes infrared (IR) sensors, radio frequency indication device (RFID), Liquid Crystal Display (LCD),Light-emitting diode (LED), Lights, buzzer, motor driver and microcontroller. In the self-regulating railway gate control system, at the level crossing the meeting of the train is identify by the IR sensor and RFID placed close to the gate. In case of RFID it identifies only meeting of train. Hence, the time for which it is closed is less compared to the manually operated gates and reduces the human labor. As the whole system is automated fault occurring due to manual operation are restricted because the corrected of automated operation is more than the manned operation. Side sensor activated and the signal about the removal is sent to the microcontroller and motor turns in further direction and gate opens and motor shut down automatically.

Since from the past many years the railway Is being the part for accidents un-intendedly in various ways like, accidents during the crossing the lane, accidents that caused due to an obstacle on the lane an also the Lack of communication between the gate Man and the Loco pilot. In the year 2019 nearly 27,987 accidents were happened due to various reasons. This project will be helpful to avoid these type of accidents Caused by the trains. Here obstacle sensor is used to monitor the track and sense any obstacle if sensed in short distance signal is transmitted to the receiver section which will give horn i.e. buzzer which alerts the loco pilot to stop the train. And similarly for avoiding the accidents at railway gate ,A sensor has be placed that sends signal to Loco pilot in order to avoid the collision .RF TX and RX are used to transfer the signals to avoid the accidents .The fire sensor Can also be used by connecting with the buzzer to alert the passengers and also to spread water using dual axial Motor, this can also improvised using the transmitter and receiver at the Train and the stations to send the signals while any fire accident took place.
A Review -Automatic Railway Gate Control System
The Railroad related accidents are more dangerous than other transportation accidents in terms of injurity and death rate etc. Therefore more efforts are necessary for improving safety and security. There are many railways crossing which are unmanned due to lack of manpower needed to fulfill the demand signal is sent to the control room and the gate is closed and stays closed until the train crosses the gate and crossing side sensors. When Hence many accidents occur at such crossing since there is careless of the functioning of the railway gate when a train arrive the crossing (1). The main aim of this paper is to manage the control system of railway gate using microcontroller and versus types of sensors. The proposed model has been designed using x-bee sensor and microcontroller to avoid railway accidents occurring a 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 depends on the two sensors placed on either side of the gate. This work utilizes two powerful magnetic sensors is fixed at incoming and similarly the other magnetic sensor is fixed at outgoing 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 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 (1).

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.

The aim of this paper is to automate various operations related to opening and closing of railway gates in order to minimize the accidents at unmanned railway gates. This automatic system also identifies the person who is unnecessarily pulling the chains and alerts the station master about the position of train using GSM technique. It also identifies unwanted obstruction in the track by anti-collision technique and detects the breakage in track. This automatic railway system reduces the waiting time of road passengers at the railway crossings since it will identify the arrival of the train and there by closing the gate when needed.

INTRODUCTION The main intention of a paper is to develop an economical train watching and protection system. Indian railway is the world 2 nd rank railway transportation, in which 6,853 location and 63,028 kilometer of the path, 37,840 trains. 83 billion customer are and 492 milliones of plenty the freight cars. Of the 11 million people who climb on the train daily, 520 trains are daily on track each day, about 550,000 seats have in reserved passenger people. Crossroad could be a place wherever a railway and a road, or 2 railway lines, cross at identical level. It's known as crossway in North America. There are primarily 2 styles of crossroad they're manned crossroad and unmanned crossroad. Manned crossroad is generally unbroken closed to road traffic equipped with lifting barriers. Unmanned crossroad is employed for oxen crossing. According by the railway department approximately 30348 crossings with man gatekeeper and without gatekeeper, (manned and unmanned) in India in that 11563 is a unmanned. Collision at without gatekeeper crossings are progressively a serious downside in India. In keeping with the report revealed in Times of India by News Network most accidents i.e. four-hundredth occurred at without gatekeeper railway crossing. Railroad connected accidents are additional dangerous than alternative transport accidents is a term of severity with death rate. The quantity of deaths on railway track is on the increase within the past few years despite many measures taken by the authorities to contain such incidents. This arrangement helpful to in reduction of accident. Railway Accidents is classified on the premises of a cause and result, study of that helps in preventing
