AIM
The aim of this project is to detect driver behavior
using alcohol sensor, limit switch for seat belt alert
and controlling the vehicle accordingly by using GSM
technology.

Proposed system
The main objective of this project is to develop a
system that can detect the alcohol content in the air
exhaled by the driver and automatically turn off the
car if Alcohol percentage exceeds the limit. It can also
check the seat belt is connected to driver or not by
using switch alert.

ARM 7 FEATURES
We are using LPC2148 in our project.
64 pins in which 48 are GPIO out of which 3 are reserved for
future purpose & other 16 are for power, crystal oscillator.
Each pin has four functions.
Two ports:

Port 0(32), Port 1(32).

2 ADCS.
1 DAC.
2 UART
2 -32-bit timers
22 external interrupts.

ARM7- RISC ARCHITECTURE

Less word size.

Less number of cycles for execution.

32 bits per cycle.

ARM UTILITIES
VOLTAGE =+3.3V.
CURRENT =1.65-1.85mA.
POWER = 0.5 mW.

ALCOHOL SENSOR

This alcohol sensor is suitable for detecting

alcohol concentration on your breath, just like
your common breathalyzer. It has a high
sensitivity and fast response time. Sensor
provides an analog output based on alcohol
concentration.

L293D motor driver

Used to drive the
motor in proper
manner.

1. L293D is most widely used motor driver IC , it is used in

various applications where motor driving is required.
2. The working of L293D is very simple , this IC consists of two
H bridges which are capable of driving two motors at a time.
Two input are required for driving a motor.

DC Motor

Used in our
project to stop
and run the
vehicle motor.

1. Electric motors are used to efficiently convert electrical energy

into mechanical energy. Magnetism is the basis of their
principles of operation.
2. An electric motor is all about magnets and magnetism: A motor
uses magnets to create motion. If you have ever played with
magnets you know about the fundamental law of all magnets:
Opposite poles attract and likes repel. Inside an electric motor,
these attracting and repelling forces create rotational motion.

LIMIT SWITCH

1. Limit switch is used to detect the presence of seat belt to the

driver or not.
2. Limit switches are used in a variety of applications and
environments because of their ruggedness, ease of installation,
and reliability of operation. They can determine the presence
or absence, passing, positioning, and end of travel of an object.
They were first used to define the limit of travel of an object;
hence the name "Limit Switch".

BUZZER

Which can give sound alert to the nearby people when ever seat
belt not inserted properly or alcohol detected.

GSM TECHNOLOGY
GSM (Global System for Mobile
communications) is an open, digital
cellular technology used for transmitting
mobile voice and data services.
Power Supply Requirement:
Use DC Power Adaptor with following ratings
DC Voltage : 12V
DC Current Rating atleast : 1A
DC Socket Polarity : Centre +ve & Outside ve
Applications:
SMS based Remote Control & Alerts
Security Applications
Sensor Monitoring

GSM INTERFACING WITH

ARM 7

Working with KEIL software

ADVANTAGES

Security of vehicle.

Detect if the driver is drunk or not.

Simple

Portable

No practical limitation

Less cost

More availability of components

Secured and Low cost

APPLICATIONS
It can be applied in all vehicles

CONCLUSION

We have implemented the driver behavior detection and alerting

system with alcohol and seat belt systems interfaced with
controller and when these are crossed the limit then that
information will be passed to the user mobiles and vehicle
motor will be OFF. Buzzer will be ON in case of alcohol sensor
detected and seat belt not inserted.
