 AIM

The aim of this project is to automates the railway

crossings in order to avoid accidents due to human
negligence.
 INTRODUCTION

• general, Railway gates are opened or closed manually by a

gate keeper.
• The information about arrival of train for opening or closing of
door is received from nearby station.
• But some railway crossings are totally unmanned and many
railway accidents occur at these unmanned level crossings.
 EXITING SYSTEM

• Manual/Physical gate closing & opening.

• Manual switch based gate closing & opening.
• The objective of this project is to manage the control the
opening or closing of gate two reference points are required to
be fixed at either side of crossing.
• RF1 and RF2 are the two reference points at which actuation
for closing and opening of gate respectively are to be initiated.
When the train approaches RF1,
• the gate is closed and when train levels RF2, gate is opened
using microcontroller.
 LIMITATIONS
• Chances of human error
• Time consuming
• A lot of human resource is required.
• Design complexity and costly.
BLOCK DIAGRAM
 HARDWARE COMPONENTS

• HARDWARE COMPONENTS:-
• IR Sensors
• Servo motors
• Adriano
• Led's
 SOFTWARE COMPONRNTS

• Kiel software
• Adriano software
 WORKING

• Four sensors are used in the project as two pairs of two

sensors; these sensors are kept in t he both side of level
crossings gate
• When train arrives from any side, it first cross the sensor1 after
that cross the sensor2, in this way Adriano close the gate by
sending the signal to servomotor.
• When train departure from any side it first cross the sensor2
after that cross the sensors, in this way Adriano open the gate.
• Servomotors are used in the gate because it is very easy to use
and does not require any driver IC or circuit.
 FEATURES

• The system will consist of 2 IR trans-receiver pairs.

• Automatic train sensing & gate controlling.
• Bidirectional gate controlling or Bidirectional train
sensing.
• The gate will be closed till the whole train passes out.
• The opening of gate will be sensor based not delay
based.
 ADVANTAGES

• Reduces Chances of human error.

• Less Time consuming.
• No human resource is required.
• Avoid the accidents
• Safety and quality of services
